Okay I tried to flash my hitachi drive 79fl on a pc that has vista loaded. Tried JF but it kept getting hosed but would see the drive so I decided to try Max toolbox and everything almost went right until the actual flashing and now the drives bricked(tray won't eject) and I get error code stating drive is bad. So with that can I just buy a new drive and put it in and flash it? I was able to read the orginal bin befoe I flashed it and still have it. I also have a max passkey installed. Does anyone know once it reads the drive and stores the orginal bin that it contains everything I need? I'm somewhat new at this and need some advice?

as long as you have your original bin you should be fine. since the drive is bricked you should buy a benq instead of a hitachi then use jf to spoof your key into the benq.

Fantastic so since I'm rather new to this let me get this right I replace the drive and flash the orginal firmware then flash the iextreme 1.51 to the drive and that's it or am i missing something else?

Buy a new drive, spoof it with the Iextreme fw. You don't have to put the original fw on the drive first unless you buy another Hitachi. Like Uturn said, just go with a BenQ.
