once i have set up my flash in iprep will it automatically boot up in dos when restarting my computer

is it nessacery to restart my computer after it is done reading my flash before flashing it on my xbox 360 or can i just continue flashing if i have everything saved or not?

you might have to set bios to boot to flash drive, some pcs dont even support it, and yes you can just continue flashing if i remember correctly.

look mate...............wipe your mind clean this instant........

360 is expensive !! you don't wanna F**k it up !!!

get Textbook tutorial as mentioned above. It walks you through the whole process for every type of drive (There is absolutely no guess work involved) It is probably the most comprehensive guide i have come across on the web and i will never ever use another guide. It really is that simple. I've successfully flashed around 50 drives in the last 12 months ranging from all 3 different types and i've always used the 'Textbook' guide.

It's along the lines of dSam then fSam but i re-iterate. Follow the guide !!!!

the new firmware 1.5 just came out is this going to be a problem flashing, will it work the same way as the 1.4 firmware or will it only work for the latest xbox 360 releases or for all?
