I currently have a Lite-on and have noticed that 1.61 FW has not been released for it yet. I've also noticed that some modders don't even attempt to flash a lite-on. The guy that does mine has a BenQ for sale for $50. Should I relpace my Lite-on with a BenQ? Is there a chance that there will not be a FW 1.61 for a Lite-on? My Lite-on also makes alot of noise. Seems the disc spins for a second, then stops, then spins, then stops. This doesn't happen when I rip the games to my HD though.

A FW will be released for the lite-on, just be patient. Whilst the BenQ's are good drives (the best xbox360's) the lite on's are quite good. In the mean time, just put up with the activate.iso disk

Like miketrev says, just be patient. But since you're running 1.51, should'nt everything boot up anyway?

By the way, I've never understood what makes BenQs better than Lite-Ons (AFTER they're flashed). I've got 2 Lites and one BenQ.

These are more than likely "first-time flashers" who try who think the probe is a hassle. (it's just as easy as BenQs or Sammies if you ask me).

I don't think wave 4 games will boot up with 1.51 even with a iso disc. I haven't tried yet either.
