Hello I'm newish here. Recently I have been interested in flashing my Xbox 360 with a BENQ drive. I've done some research and this has brought me here. I found a nice tut in the sticky but I am needing to ask if this card will work with the flash.

[url=http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VIA-6421-SATA-PCI-Card-FOR-XBOX-360-Flash-Repairs-6421A_W0QQitemZ280367137882QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Computing_ComputerComponents_InterfaceCards?hash=item41472f045a&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=65%3A12|66%3A2|39%3A1|72%3A1688|240%3A1318|301%3A0|293%3A1|294%3A50[/url]

Will this work with most PCs as well? Sorry for the easy questions. Finally is there anything I've missed out before I can get ready to flash?

That card should do fine. Read the Jungle flasher guide before you start and you should be fine. Come back if you have any questions.

Since windows 7 is only in beta, I doubt it would be supported yet. Just switch your os to xp.

I've got Windows 7 Beta Build 7600 x86 with the VIA 6421 chipset and it works great. :)
