if u have no idea how to install a pci card then you probably will never figure out how to do anything else that is required to do a flash.

By saying that, who ever answers correctly has no life now. Good way of getting an answer.

Step 1) Install the chip (hardware)
Step 2) Install chip drivers

If you don't know how to do 1, I reccomend you learn by goolging SATA Chip installment.

You are asking questions that are answered in the instructions on how to do what you are asking.....what response do you expect to get.

dont know how to install a PCI card= google.com and type: installing pci cards.

dont know what firmware to use or how to do it= read instructions that are available.

omg... dude, if you can't install that card, give up on the flash. It literally is like putting a card in a slot. Picture like swiping a credit card through a register, except it stays there. That's exactly what you do. If you aren't able to effectively search, and use google or other tools to find out how to perform one of the easiest installations possible, do you really feel comfortable hacking the firmware on your xbox 360 drive?

If you have a lite-on drive it's not the same as a BenQ. The disk trays look similar but the Lite-on can't be flashed. The info for that is in other posts so I won't get into it.

However for your pci card why don't you just remove your ethernet card and install the sata one while you're flashing and then put your ethernet card back once your done? Depending on your set up you might have another card in there that you don't really need that you can get rid of. My Vaio had a port for connecting coax that I removed to make room for my sata card. Just a thought.

XBOX Halo Ed. = DuoX2 w/250gb HD
Xbox 360 Red Elite 120GB HDD = no-stealth 1.6 & XBReboot V3 & 1TB usb hdd
PS2 Slim = freemcboot v1.8 - PSP Black Slim = 5.00m33-6
Wii = w/ Blue XCM ii-case, Wiikey2 & softmodded

Well that makes a huge difference from what you were saying before. I kind of took it as you didn't know how to install the card, not that you didn't have the space.

Just ignore what stealthdf said. I would just pull one of your other cards out temporarily and put the via card in. Then just use it to flash the drive, and before you go back to windows, I would swap them back out again. Flashing really isn't that difficult, so you should be able to do it.

As for your questions, no, you would have to use the via card, you can't use anything else. And also (like copper kid said) check to ensure you have the benq drive, not the lite-on. Because the drive trays are the same, but you can only flash the benq.

Let us know what happens... and we'll try to help.
