I bet the drive is 79fl, correct? If it is your best buying the ck3 pro kit to do it http://www.mrmodchips.co.uk/catalog/prod...3bc1485d36a65b8
and use windows xp when you do it i was using vista 32 and was having terrible problems but when i used xp it worked 1st time. you will also need a via 6421 sata card

Are the 59's and 79's done different?

totally different 59 is really simple a goldfish could do them :) 79 are a bit more tricky but with the right tools they can be done handy enough

I'm hearing very bad things about mrmodchips, I wouldn't trust them.

The type of drive is on the white tag on the drive.

if is elite, then it is 79fl, the elites only shipped first with benq's, then hitachi 79's, the 59 is far out of date for the elite. 360drives.com is a good site, to check, but i 99% it is 79fl.

just do a search for hitachi 79fl flash instructions and you will find something out there, fine, i will give you a tutorial i made, but you guys really need to start searching for answers, as that is what we all did to learn this, you will never truly learn if you don't try and do somethings by yourself. if you have troubles along the way, that is where we come in, but alot of people on AD, aren't willing to help others due to the fact of them not even trying to search for themselves.
