Ok guys, I'm not good with tutorials but if you guys are having problems with JungleFlasher 1.51 beta you can use FirmwareToolbox to flash your drive, I only used JungleFlasher to put the drive in Mode-B that's it...As most of you already know the rules set for FirmwareTool 4.8 are only for iXtreme 1.4 not 1.51... Here is how I flashed my 78 with FirmwareToolbox..

Microsoft .net framework 2.0 or 3.5 is required!


Here is how to manuall get your Xbox 360 drive letter detected in Windows!


Control Panel, Add New Hardware Wizard, Wizard will search for new hardware recently installed on you computer, You will see a list of all your hardware recently installed, find your Xbox 360 drive then highlight it and click next..Your Xbox 360 drive will now appear in the control panel.


Here's how to manually Install the PortI/O 32 driver.. Vista 64 user might have to go old school with Slax 2.1 for Mode B..JungleFlasher only works on 32 bit operating systems from what I've heard..

Go to control panel, Add New Hardware and click next, Wizard will scan for new hardware, You will be shown a list of hardware already on your pc, Scroll down and select "Add a new hardware device", You will then be asked if Windows should search for new Hardware, Select "NO" and install manually, Click the "Have Disk" and point Windows to the driver directory of the PortIO32 distribution, Click next to install your new hardware, Files will be copied and installed the click finish to complete


"MAKE SURE YOUR DRIVE IS STOCK BEFORE FLASHING TO IXTREME 1.51!!!!

Go to Tools > Direct Drive Flash (GDR Only) > Differential Flash (RESTORE FIRST!!! If you do the Patch method on an already hacked drive you will Brick it!!


1) Open the hacked firmware under firmware File, for 78/79 drives make sure your drives key info matches.. Here is an example,key information lookis like this....(@5e10) So the ixtreme hacked firmware should looks like this...ix151-78-5e10.bin.

2) Copy and paste or type in your drives original key and hit save key when finished.

3) Go to Tools > Direct Drive Flash (GDR Only) > Differential Flash (PATCH)

4) Check that your Hitachi drive is selected in the drop-down list and Hit "Read and Detect Differences"

5) Select "Start Flashing" and let it finish..

This is how I flashed my Hitachi 78FK with FirmwareToolbox 4.8, all other Hitach drives should be the same.. Just use Jungleflasher to Put drive into Mode-B.. If you guys have more info to add please help me out..

nevermind i did it.....yay :P

P.S.
for all hitachi users having troble gettin in mode B here is a little known trick that makes getting into mode be a JOKE
WARNING !!!! this only works with a hitachi drive with hacked FW on it !!!
1. Power on 360
2. Ejext the dvd tray open
3. Pull power out of 360 (pull the power cord out of the power brick)
now the 360 should be off with now poer conection and the tray should still be open
4. Re-connect power ad turn on 360
the tray should close on its own.
BAM your in mode B baby !!!!
To test if you ae in mode B, press the eject button... nothin happend.. press again and it should open. it should take 2 times to open or close the tray.
