BENQ Cant detect BENQ drive after latest update

[kiaduplex]

Problem re flashing drive after latest xbox patch.

I downloaded the latest xbox update of the website and installed via usb. I didn't flash my drive back to stock before applying the update as i had read this wasn't a problem and just needed to reflash my drive again.

The Xbox patch updated fine and currently plays original disks but as expected none of my backup disks work.

However i am now unable to get jungleflasher or dosflash to even detect my drive let alone flash it. I can see the drive in the bios but thats it.

I have searched the forums but cant find any help on this. I've tried powering on the xbox before and after boot, with the tray both in and half out. Power cycling the drive after clicking Intro/Device all of which return nothing so i'm at a loss as to what i can do next?

Extra Info
Xbox - Fat
Drive: BENQ - VAD6038
FW: LT1.6 (before the update)

I have the original FW and key and ck3 pro kit. Also this pc has flashed about 10 different drives including the 6038 model without any difficulties in the past so it is unlikely to be a hardware issue.

Please help me thanks

Yep I tried that it just returns the the message:

No Drive Detected!
Benq Un lock aborted!

Onboard SATA - ASUS E3559 motherboard.

I used this to flash the above drive a couple of months ago so I'd be surprised if this is the causing the above issue

Power the drive with the tray half open if it has iXtreme 1.6 firmware on it. Once half tray has been achieved, simply click Intro/Device ID. BenQ Unlock only works on drives with stock or LT firmware.

as I said I've tried powering the drive with the tray half open but it makes difference. I'm also don't think it has the 1.6 FW on it anymore due to the dash update resetting it, which would make sense as the xbox wont read any of the backups but i could be wrong

Try another SATA chipset, maybe this is just one of those drives that wants to be stubborn lol.
