Dump the firmware again. It contains your DVDkey.

i think what Leerage means is carry out the 'tut' until it dumps the firmware i.e is in vendor mode and you then click read. Then it will ask you to save the fw again, that will contain your DVD key.

Yup, that is exactly what I mean. OP, you need to read the firmware again and Jungle Flasher will ask you to save it.

I never used Jungle Flasher before to flash my drives. But I'm looking at your Jungle flasher tutorial for stock benQs. So after i read it and then save it, instead of continue do i just click firmware tool 32 to get my dvd key.

morning dpate,

your dvd key will already be in the file you just saved, unless you need to write it down or manually input it somewhere you shouldn't need to verify it in firmware tool 32.

Just for sh*ts and giggles you could if you wanted.... close down and re-open JF, go to the fw tool 32 tab and click 'load source fw' choose the file you just saved then ok it, it should populate the top portion of the fw tool 32 screen with all your drives info including the DVD key, fw version, drive make and model. hours of endless fun for all the family :)

hope this helps

Well i found these 2 files "orig bin file" and "ix15 ben file" those are the 2 files i had got when i flashed my 360 with 1.5 firmware. So is my dvd key in either one of those files, i think its in the ix15 ben file. So should i just write that to my new drive?

If you just load that firmware in to jungle flasher, it will show you the DVD Key. I would copy that in to a txt file and save it on lost of places :D
