not sure what the crash issue is - try updating to the latest JF - what kit are u using.....
you can recover a BenQ from bad flash by following the JF tut in the documentation folder.....page 201

Depends on what your FRIEND did to it whilst trying to flash it himself :eek2:

Can you provide more information as it sounds like the PC is fried :confused:

Teajunkie is the man to go to to retrieve KEYS from dead PCB's :wink:

reboot your pc and try to hook it up again.

i cant see how your pc crashes when you hook up your drive.

not with using the usb pro anyway

nah just saying so many got stuffed up because they updated from a FIFA 12 backup and not the original so were stuck in an update loop, happened with Madden 12 also

was about to say reboot your pc...you are running jf as admin too i hope

ive rebooted several times its only on this drive when i try to get the dvd key from it, i dont understand why its doing it to the drive shows up fine until you try to retrieve key the computer crashes everytime strange and it was from an original fifa 12 it suposedly upated then straight away had 1 red light flashing and coming up with e45 if you take the disc out and turn on xbox takes about 5 mins to get past logo screen its really really slow

Try to clear the console system cache by holding the 'SYNC' button and keeping it pressed in whilst switching on power. Hold the 'SYNC' button until the console completes booting :wink:

If you think the PCB is fried and you want it repairing then contact Teajunkie he is the GOD of all things PCB wise, and he might be cheaper :wink:

if the drive is showing in Jf then its not the drive. return the drive to stock fw (0251c) then download 13146 update (google it) put that onto usb stick and try to update. if that dont work download 13599 update and do same as the previous update. it should be fine after that, then flash back to LT
