You need to put your OFW firmware in the Backup folder for it to recognise it.The problem is it erased it so it doesn't exist anymore,just place it in your Backup folder and if the hacked firmware is missing also place that in the Backup folder as well modified to your liking.

I did this but it still says dont exist?Every time I try to flash
Im having to start over completly start over...should I be having to do this?what i mean by starting over is im creating a new usb boot
over the existing one prior.The OFW and CFW are located in two places
on my desk top in a folder and the other place is on the usb drive
is this wrong?

I'm just guessing here that you may not have followed the directions correctly.

After you have erased the firmware you should see:

Ensure your BenQ DVD drive is turned OFF
Press any key to continue. . .

IMPORTANT! You must power the 360 back ON before pressing any
key to continue.

"If you press any key to continue with the 360 powered OFF (as
instructed to do on screen) it will immediately freeze attempting to
write Bank 0. This is a bug in iPrep 006 and will hopefully be
resolved in a future release.


So power the 360 OFF as instructed on screen, wait a few seconds,
power it ON, wait a few seconds, then press any key to continue."

That's straight out of the benq iprep006 tutorial.

I've made the same mistake myself. Hopefully this solves your issue.

I see you also left the 360 on...you must turn it off at the screen mentioned above and then turn it back on before pressing any key to continue.

When flashing a benq with iprep after you have erased the firmware you dont turn it off to flash you just leave it on and press any key.

Here is an example of what to do alright when creating the folders again:

-BACKUPS
-XXXXXXX(first seven digits of your serial from your Xbox 360)
-XXXXX(five digits left over from your serial for your Xbox 360)
-BENQ-OFW.bin(Original Firmware) and BENQ-CFW(hacked firmware)placed in the last five digit from you serial folder created)

Make sure when you place your firmware in the BACKUPS folder it is in the right location.If you create a BACKUPS folder and place the firmware in it without having your serial folder created it won't work.I hope this helps you out,and plus follow the advice given from |CL| and Dindi as well.
