Hi all,

Could anyone tell me how to flash the xbox360 hitachi dvd-drive? i am a little unsure on how to do it. Any step by step instructions will be most helpful.

Many Thanks
Waitsey

To get it recognised in Windows we need to get the drive into modeb (pronounced ?mode bee?).
To do this we will use Probutus?s excellent Slax Live CD or the crossed wires method:
http://rapidshare.de/files/18684918/live-cd.iso.html

Connect the Xboix360 Drive up to your PC as above to a suitable SATA port. Set your bios to boot from CD first and boot the Slax CD. When it boots you will see a lot of text. If you look close you will see it say the drive is in modeb (with thanks to Kev). When you get to the ?login:? prompt reset your PC (with the reset button) but leave the Xbox360 on!

Run firmare batch file, and you're done...

Only pioneer burner with verbatims work though :\ for me anyway
