there are 3 different firmwares for the 64930c BenQ and I'm trying to figure out which one to use.

theres a b030, e030_1 and e030_2

Jungle Flasher is telling me my DVD key is located at E030, so I'm assuming I'm not to use the b030. So which e030 do I use?

you might want to post what you did to help others out.

"All drives should be updated to Lite Touch + (LT+) firmware if playing on XBOX live. Samsung drives and pre-78/79 Hitachi drives do not utilize AP 2.5. All other drives are considered to be detectable by Microsoft (YMMV). Make sure all rips are ABGX verified, contain SSv2, and patched AP2.5 (where needed). XGD3 must currently be burned on new drive with PC Burner Max firmware for 100% rip. All modded consoles can be potentially unsafe for use on XBOX live."

dunno if I can post links but I'll just copy what was posted on Ixtreme's forum by L-Burna

There are three files in the archive, because they represent the different dvd drive key locations. I think each bin file represents a different key location. In order to find out where your key is located at you can look at them in a hex editor. Another way to go about this is to open up your modified firmware in a program such as jungleflasher or toolbox etc...whatever you use to check your firmware with and it should tell you where the key is located at. By the way thanks to the mod that put these files up. I put a text file up showing the difference between the two Benq e030 bin files. In other words they are both different so make sure you use the right one. If you search in a hex editor with the locations provided by the text file I uploaded you can tell which one to use. An example would be to open both of the e030 files in a hex editor and go to offset 12D7. The e030_1.bin file should display E5 and the e030_2.bin file should display E4. Now check your modified firmware by pluggin in that offset and you should know which one to use after that.
and here's part of that report he mentions
