The flash was a success but I can't get into the X3 menu. Not sure what to do.

Actually, I take it back. It's the Logitech controller that the bios is not detecting. Works just fine in XBMC but does not pick up the fact that I'm holding the white button down. Works just fine using the ms controller.

I can confirm that it is wireless controllers that are the problem. I couldn't get into config live, saw this thread, hooked up a wired controller, and got in just fine. By the way, I have an Airflo wireless, not the logitech.

Actually, I have the wired Logitech :) So perhaps it's tied to 3rd party controllers? The logitech never worked in the FlashBios menu either but since I've only seen that screen twice since October 04, I really didn't care about it not working.

I have a wireless Logitec and it works just fine.

You just have to start pressing the white button as soon as the X3 ROX MY BOX logo comes up.

I know how to get into the menu. If I can get in with one controller, it should mean I can get in with the other. Thats not the case though. It was not a problem before the flash . If I switch banks, the controller works just fine.

I promise you that the 1959 bios did not have any "Logitec" drivers built in that were left out in the 2913 version.

There would be nothing different from a controller stand point that I can see.

Maybe someone correct me if I am wrong.

Well, it's not working for me. I tested it once again and I can get in with no problems into x3 live if I use the MS conroller but have 0% success rate with the Logitech controller. And yes, the controller works perfectly in XBMC and in games.

Anyone else with a third party controller? Would like to know your experience with it.
