Ok,
I realized that my nforce 680i wouldn't work, so I tried another pc with nforce 4(which i read works to flash samsung drive). Jungle flasher won't see the drive, neither will iprep. I used another (forgot what it is, had 3 or 4 steps, 1st step said to "load firmware"), gave me an error message said no firmware loaded. Have .net framework 3. I have tried countless times. Have d/l ixtreme 1.5 and 1.6, neither works. I really don't wanna screw up this kid's xbox 360, so, can anyone guide me to a step by step tutorial. I (believe it or not, and i'm puter savvy) spent about 6 hrs yesterday [to the dismay of my wife] trying to get this to work. And, the PC doesn't recognize the drive either. Also, what is the diff between extreme 5.3 and ixtreme 1.6. Geez, I can't even open the firmware...
Thanks

Nforce works sometimes. Just buy the 6421 card and save yourself the headaches. They are only $15.00 and more than pay for itself with one backup.

Ok, I'm just about to give up....never have I encountered resistance like this God awful box. I have tried xp (nforce 4) and Vista (680i), I know, get the Via...however, i have read a ton that nforcce works. Iprep doesn't recognize the drive. I have tried every SATA port i have, in both puters. I have rebooted countless times, and played with bios till the keys are hot. I get no drive detected, and "no firmware loaded". I am at a loss, and this is killin me to say that. And......i can't load portio32 in either machine, cmd box comes up and says to load manually. I d/l the zip file with it in it, but it's only for NT systems.

The via card surely works, Nforce might work, there are other factors to consider, for example your mainboard and so on. Simply get the Via card off ebay, they are like 2 US$ + shipment from Hong Kong and they work.
Xbox 360: Slim untouched with a faked 320 GB harddrive for XBL, phat with LT 3.0, played Halo early, so going on live would be an instand ban, also with a faked 320 GB harddrive
PS3: Untouched 160 GB Slim, 60 GB Fat with latest Rogero and 160 GB internal harddrive.
PSVita: hardly ever play it
GameCube: Black with a Viper chip installed. With gameboy player. Trying to get a Wavebird controller.

Why every time does either extreme bootmaker, or iprep constantly say "no firmware loaded"...i finally got extreme bootmaker to load something, loaded ixtreme 1.6, said.."selected unknown firmware, would you like to d/l firmware def update", if i say no, it loads an md5 file

As much as I recommend forums such as this one to provide help, it's always hard to determine the solution without being hands-on ... because everybody's PC system is different.
So what Person A is telling you may contradict what Person B is saying. Unfortunately, getting it done yourself is going to take some trail and error on your part.
If you would like to avoid the headaches like so many others do ... just send it off to someone who has the experience to get the job done right. This way you'll definitely avoid rendering your drive useless and save yourself a ton of frustration. You know what I mean? :-)

Thats your problem. PortIO32 must be installed for JF to work.
Open you device manage>Right Click>Add Legacy Device
-point to your folder with your PortIO32 files.

I presume by update definitions, you mean upgrading the program?...I tried iprep 101, iprep 6, iprep 008....thanks for everyone's patience, i worked hours yesterday on 2 computers swithing this xbox around, for the life of me, i can't get anything to work. iprep and jungle flasher just say no firmware loaded....got extreme bootmaker to load samsung 16.bin...but when i hit "start" to prepare the usb drive, nothing happens....it just sits there

To each their own.
Taken from another thread with this same problem. Quote: I reduced my DPI setting for the screen to "normal". The screen display settings were set larger so I could get larger fonts. If you reset this to normal, and reboot, JungleFlasher displays fine.
