Well, I'm trying to flash my Benq drive using the guide here:
http://www.se7ensins.com/forums/firmware...xbox-360-a.html
and under the "Requirements" section I'm Having trouble with this

"3.Your iXtreme Firmware files get these off Xbins and PATCH THEM TO YOUR FIRMWARE.... putting these on your drive without your drive key will result in a non working drive AUTO-XBINS:"
Okay, when I download and use Xbins from the link below, I open up the Xbox 360 Folder, but I can't figure out what files I should be downloading.
Also I didn't get this part as well:
"PATCH THEM TO YOUR FIRMWARE.... putting these on your drive without your drive key will result in a non working drive AUTO-XBINS"
Whar does he mean by "patch them to my firmware", what firmware?

Any help appreciated :)

firmware is what you are downloading, all drives have firmware. you are just patching your new fw over the old that is all the modding process is.

And thanks for helping me so far :)

heres what i do.... download the iextreme 1.4.1 FW from any site that has it, just google it, and then follow these instructions after you buy and install the via 6421 PCI sata card.

step 1: put USB stick into USB slot
2: open up iPrep
3: load firmware definition (1.4.1)
4: select drive letter from drop down box
5: hit make bootable
6: shut down computer
7: deassemble 360 and hook the dvd drive up to the PCI card
8: turn computer on, boot off the USB stick
9: follow command prompts (it will put the orig.bin on the USB stick after you run the dben 1234567 12345 command.)
10: shut down 360 and computer and restart into windows
11: open up Firmware toolbox and make sure the FW it dumped is a legit one. if so move on, if not do as i said before to copy and paste a legit key in it.
12: restart computer and boot off the USB drive.
13: follow command promts and run the fben 1234567 12345 command to erase/flash the drive with the 'hacked' firmware.
14: shut down 360 and computer
15: put a burnt game in it to make sure it plays.
16: if it plays, put 360 back together
17: if it doesnt play games, see if it will play original games then restart computer off the USB drive, hook 360 back up and run the rben 1234567 12345 command to restore it to original shape. and start over.

open up PC you should have a couple of empty PCI slot on your motherboard, the PCI sata card goes in one of those..

You will need a PC desktop computer to use the PCI SATA card.
