I created a boot floppy. then i copied these files: MTKFLASH.EXE, MTKFLASH.TYP, XTREME.BIN, XTRM0800.BIN.
I turned of the computer.
I connected off every IDE cable from the HDD/DVD on my computer (not from the motherboard)
I connected the SATA cabel in SATA1 on my pc, but not to the xbox.
I turned on my pc, and on the promt i write:  mtkflash r/m orig.bin   (also tried : r/sata/m and r/m sata)
then i connected my pc to xbox's driver with SATA, video cable is still in driver.
I turned Xbox on, counting 10-20 sec, end pressed enter.
Then i got the message: "No device detected"
And thats is it, i can nothing do.

When the pc says: "Please wait" -> I turned the xbox off. I waited 10 sec and turned on.
Still i got the message: "No device detected"

I created a boot floppy and i copied all files from X360SAM.6 folder to this floppy (including
xtreme42a and (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
I turned off the computer.

I connected the SATA cabel in SATA1 on my pc, but not to the xbox.

then i connected my pc to xbox's driver with SATA, video cable is still in driver.
I turned Xbox on, counting 10-20 sec, end pressed enter.
I got this long message:

    MTKFLASH by Joseph Lin, MTK 1998 (Ver 1.830)
    please wait....
    Port: e400, Master/Slave: a0
    Flashtype: "SSTCSST399F020)"
    ERR: fail to open input file!

Then i pressed ESC, i got a message that something is 80 should 70
And thats it.

I also tried every version, so that the xbox is power on, when i turned the pc on.

I dont no whats is wrong. I think MTKFLASH support my VIA VT8377 Apollo KT600, but i can be wrong.

Please when someone know something, help me! Many thanks, and sorry for my English!

Sorry I just could not read that whole thing...  I see you have a via chipset.


Did you modify the mtkflash ?    you HAVE to to use it.

Xtreme boot maker I believe will make a MODIFIED MTKFLASH for you ... then USE THAT in place of the one you download.

then try what you were trying before.

And use this tutorial  it tells  you everything you need in it..
