Ok so I FINALLY after a week or so, and 6 Coastered DL DVD R's. Successfully Have Flashed My Hitachi Drive Firmware and Have enabled the Drive to load my Backups of games.

If anyone needs any help whatsoever Feel free to ask. I barely had any help and had to do alot of research.

**HOURS UPON HOURS**.

I Know what a bitch it can be to Get the drive to work over all successfully. So anyone needing any help, let Me know!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is for sure the Door to the HomeBrew scene on the 360. Has anyone seen the recent images floating around the net. They are very much Legit. Commodor4Eva is workin on it very hard and is very secretive about his stuff. It will be released within the months to come. It will be amazing. The Firmware hack is coming along very well and it is going to enable great things in the future to come!!

Good job to all those out there who made the FW hack possible.


The Specialist and team, Commodore4Eva, GaryOPA, Birdy. GREAT JOB!

I'm really having fun with the stock 360 and Xbox live, but it won't hurt to do the dual firmware mod, I'm seriously thinking about it.. Very Happy

I hacked my Hitachi and a week later, after an update, my game play got really choppy and had missing textures. The consoles manuf. date was May 2006 so I doubt it was a heat issue. Plus it happened as soon as te console was started. Also, my backups that worked perfectly for a week before the update now said "please insert in a 360". Luckily I bought it at ToysRUs and they swapped it. Just a word of caution.

Let me know how it goes. I am a little hesitant to hack my new system. I read on a xbox.com forum that MS wont be banning consoles because of repeated revenue from the Live Marketplace and planned sales of movies and music. Choppy game play seems like a logical alernative. I wonder if the on-the-fly patch/chip would be detectable on live... of course if you did not access live with the patch activated.
