Alright i got everything setup to flash my drive, but i have one problem, i have a sata hd hooked up to the VIA SATA Controller PCI, and I put a 5gb NTFS format partion on it and then put the files that are need on it, and when i boot up to the nfts dos, all i get is a C:/ 2mb cache thing, and cant get my sata hd to show up, nether will the drive show up in my bios.

well if you xp, u right click on my computer, and select manage and in their you can see your partions and make them, and yeah its the primary partion. i also tried using my mp3 player with the usb method, and it would just boot up with a J, and then freezes. Then tried my actual usb thumb drive but it only comes up as an HD, but yet i aso tried to get NTFS DOS to see that no luck, its an Intel mobo which really shouldnt matter, but then again i have a 40gb hd which is my main hd, and i tried that, and i got to the point where you had to type C:\ and yeah none of the letters worked it said w/e not their, also been looking is their new commands out for samhack and samread?

Ok, i tried it again with my normal IDE hd in it, and when it comes up with the NTFS DOS, i hit enter then type yes
i get the menu for C:/ and its 38.000mb which is the size of my hd, and then D:/ 2gb cache or mb w/e

so i type in c:\ and yeah it says bad file command and idea, also reformat my sata drive to a 8k cluster since it doesnt like 4k clusters :(
