    Default liteon drive flash time?

    Hi

    Can I flash my liteon drive in my phat consoles now and then upgrade to the new dash? Or should I update flashed drive consoles then re-flash drives?

    thanks

    Really the 4 that were killed deserved it.

    Flash after the update or you will be re flashing if you do it before.

    When I downloaded the new fw it has pre and post dashupdate versions...

    So I figure you can update the drive before the dashboard yes???

    Generally no. If you flash your drive and then update the dashboard it will reflash your drive to stock firmware. You're better updating the dashboard and then flashing the drive.

    The main reason for the 2 firmwares is for people to use the pre who aren't updating the dashboard and not intending to and the post for people who do update.

    Since I want to play gow3 when it is released I guess one will be forced to do the dash update by then. so i will wait and flash after I play gow3

    Thanks smithster for the info and clearing that up for me. I'll wait until after I am forced to update dash then when things don't work I will reflash. I'm also keen on GOW 3 poison, as I only play offline I get my dash updates through new games....so keep on gaming until you get the new update then reflash.

    Good idea. I will just keep the dash that I have now and update when I need to. Although 1 of my consoles has fw that cant play new games on it anyway. was going to update it but it can wait.

    cheers

    Once we update, if you want to play older Ap25 games eg MW3 etc, I think you'll have to repatch the games with ABGX and burn again....bummer
