i was updating firmware on a BenQ/Lite-on DVDrom,
i had a connection using my Via 6421L on Sata port 1
if the drive was on while booting, i would get a Raid error.
if the drive was off i got all the way to reading the firmware using iPrep
here's where i hit my issue... i followed the instructions carefully,
turned the drive on.... on-screen flashed "Status: 0xD1" & "0x51" non-stopping.
so i turned the drive off, status stopped @ "Status: 0xD1"
turn the drive back on, and the status went back to flashing back and forth with "0xD2" and "0x52"
am i getting a read error or if i'm doing something wrong could someone point me in the right direction?
Thankz
Your on the right track, read the textbook.
This is from the textbook
CODE
Follow the prompts on the screen, make sure your 360 is OFF and press
any key to continue. Press Y to resend the MTK Vendor Intro.
Turn on the Xbox 360 and wait 2 or more seconds, status toggles
between 0x51 and 0xD1.
Turn off the Xbox 360 and wait 2 or more seconds, status will stay at
0xD1.
Turn on the Xbox 360, you should get a good drive status 0x73 and
reading should begin automatically.
All 4 banks should read OK and you should get a Reading finished!
message with a Datasum.

I think I figured it out, disconnect everything else from your pc, usually hard drives and the other dvd drives.
If that doesnt work try to instead of waiting 2 seconds wait 10 or 5 seconds and continue.

Wouldn't that make it an almost definite Lite On though? Is the Xbox brand new? Pop open the actual DVD drive and take a pic (IMG:
