Read Me! =============================================================== iXtreme Batch File Update *RC2* =============================================================== >>> Problem |-------------------------------------------------| | "DeviceIOControl() failed 0" | | "failed to execute flasher (sense: [xx/xx/xx])" | |-------------------------------------------------| when restoring (or) flashing sectors: - sector 90033000 (UnStealth) - sector 90035000 (Media Detect / SS Read) - sector 90034000 (Media Detect v2) - sector 90027000 (Challenge Response) - sector 90026000 (Challenge Response) - sector 90025000 (Mode B into A) - sector 90024000 (Mode B into A) - sector 9001d000 (Game Part Unlock) - sector 9001c000 (Drive Response Table Decrypt) - sector 9000a000 (TRAY Tweak) - sector 90006000 (MODE B Tweak) - sector 90003000 (Xtreme Custom Code) - sector 9003e000 (Master Checksum) - sector 9003F000 (EXTRA Checksum) ? - sector 90005000 (Stealth Data and Code) in Hitachi disk drive V. 46/47/59! NOTE: The error is not caused by the orig bats, but caused by the way CMD negotiates the commands within the bats! =============================================================== >>> Fixes The update should (SHOULD) solve bad sector calls, during the first attempt of flashing (or) restoring of the dive! If these errors are witnessed throughout the restore/flashix process,it may result in an unsuccessful flashix/restore attempt, excessive read errors, and/or cause bad flash scenarios to occur! eg. "3RLOD" after flashing! Until now, running flashix/restore.bat multiple times or until the absences of errors is witnessed, was the only sure fire way to get 100 compliance! =============================================================== >>> Usage NOTE: "Windows Powertoy" is no longer needed, nor is having to "dir" using the CMD prompt to the "iXtreme-HitachiAll-RTMv3" folder to run restore.bat X [or] flashix.bat X 1234 - Simply Unrar the folder in the iXtreme-HitachiAll-RTMv3 folder - Chose yes when asked to replace existing files - Make sure the drive can be seen in windows 2000/XP-SP2/Vista - dbl click the bat you want to use. thats it! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . >>> RESTORE.bat +: Dbl clk the RESTORE.bat file. |___:Type the dirve letter [Dd-Zz] of the Hitachi drive you wish to restore, and Enter! DONE. When RESTORE.bat is complete, (assuming without errors) the RESTORE.bat will forward the user to a CMD prompt. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . >>> FLASHIX.bat +: Dbl clk the FLASHIX.bat file. |___:Type the drive letter [Dd-Zz] of the Hitachi drive you wish to flash, and Enter! |__:Type a name for the "X16S-?" backup folder [Aa-Zz] [1-9] and Enter!
