Hi guys, is it possible to flash any xbox drive via a laptop. i am familiar with the pc flashing but wanna know if its possible via laptop. If so, what do I need to get me started. Im running on Vista and have a Compaq Presario C700.

Cheers in advance

Wouldn't have thought its possible unless you can acquire a PCMCIA card with a VIA 6421 Chipset.

It is possible, you have to get a specific PCMCIA SATA card with a compatible chipset (usually VIA 6421). I've seen them for sale on ebay.

Yes, that PCMCIA card will do.

Or if you're in the states, here's another eBay auction:

Item number: 280367016252

Keep in mind, for Lite-on flashing you're going to need other equipment that may require a PC power source.
