what drive do you have?

 

[dave9469]

I have the toshiba samsumg ms25

 

[mmaverick]

great, what you will need is iprep, the new def file, (probably the 2 you downloaded) and the new firmware, found also on xbins under firmware instead of tools. also the best way is to get a VIA 6421 sata card and install with the v5.5 drivers. once you get all this then follow textbook's tutorial.

 

[dave9469]

I think that's my problem i am a little bit confused with the iprep. how do you use it?

do you drag and drop some files into that folder or something?

 

[mmaverick]

you download iprep, extract the file and the other one that says ixdef-rev5 and replace the old defs with the new one. run iprep. at the top you need to click "load your firmware". find your 1.2c, either fast or quiet, doesnt matter which, its up to you. check mark "cutsom serial ata", let it load the devices. click the down arrow and find the via 6421 chipset and click that. wait for it to load the "dev id" and the "dev IO". at the bottom select the drive you are using, preferably a flash drive. check mark Format/make bootable. then click DO IT!

 

[dave9469]

how comes everytime i run i-p-rep it gives me application error?

it says application failed to initilize or something like that? can anyone help me how to get past here?
thank you

 

[dave9469]

never mind i got this part figured out.. it was a .net problem.

thank you for all the help

 

[zerach]

just for the other new people reading
you need "net framework 2.0" for iprep to work

 

[dave9469]

wowwww.. once you do it, its a piece of cake.. i did mines in like 10 minutes onces i got past my iprep problem, it's so simple.. now i just have to back up a game and see if that works.. it's working fine/normal with my original games

 

[zerach]

glad you got it man

 

[mmaverick]
