Maximus - FIRMWARE TOOLBOX V4.0
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The credit on ixtreme firmware is for Commodore4eva, I only ported to
Fw toolbox to support all variants of 78/79 drives (and upper).

SPECIAL NOTE ON FLASHING HITACHI 79FK DRIVES:

Sorry for the confusion that the "79 flashing" video have caused, that
video was uploaded by one no-more-beta-tester without my permision. I wake 
up this morning flooded by tons of emails for congratulations and I feel 
the need to clarify the situation.

It is possible to flash by software the 79 drives but needs the previous 
installation of a physical device (as the one proposed by team xecuter).

Hardware devices will be needed until a better solution arrives (our 
research never stop). Me and some friends have developed also a small 
device to allow the flashing, the info can be accesed here:

Back on topic:

WHATS NEW ON V4.00:

   - Added:     Smart Hack Patcher now implements ixtreme 1.2 (thanks to c4e)
   - Added:     Now Supports 100% BENQ Firmwares (spoof, key changing, etc)
   - Added:     Option to Restore Original Firmwares based on any dump you have
   - Corrected: Several other bugs
   - Added:     OCX's included on the release
                (there are available on Microsoft site anyway)

Release Notes:
   On Xtreme 1.2 the F900 have been removed (and fw stealth for 78/79
   drives is also  removed  since  those drives  does  not  need  it)

   By one side we are trying to build one solid application (toolbox)
   that would make easier the future Hitachi Releases (which currently
   its a pain because of all the variations) and by other side it.

   The Fw Stealth was a good idea but it has been proven that the fw
   could be readed by other means, indeed the newer versions (78+) 
   does not have the need to implement stealth so I think it will not
   be used anymore.


WHAT IS IT ?
---------- 
   A graphical tool to handle several common dvd-drive firmware
   tasks. This is the better tool you will find.
 
   You can copy-paste the keys from one firmware to another not 
   matter if they are different vendor (samsung or hitachi)
   and not matter the version of the FW

   Allows SMART PATCH for rolling code firmwares (Hitachi 0078) and
   also Direct Flash on all drives, even the nasty 78 drives.

   RAWDUMP does not work fine with SIL chipsets yet, be aware of use 
   the validate checksum feature to avoid bad dumps and bricks. We
   will be working on SIL chipsets later.

   The flasher/restore appears to be rock solid now, also very easy
   to understand, so this could be the base to flash future firmware 
   releases, even on the 78


FEATURES:
---------
 - Direct Dump and Direct Flash over all versions of GDR3120L drives
   even the 0078 FK drives. For 79 FK you will need aditional device
   attached to the drive.
 - Allow copy-paste of the keys between firmare not matter if
   they are crypted or not or if they are different vendor or
   even better, not matter which version of Fw (46,47,59,78 etc)
 - Do common firmware tasks with a mouse click
 - Supports Samsung and Hitachi firmwares All Versions 
 - Shows Vendor, ROM version and also if its CRYPTED or NOT
 - Allow crypt or decrypt the files
 - Shows the 16 byte Keys not matter if the file is Crypted
 - Allows adding of TAGS to a KEY like Owner, Serial No, Date.
   (Dont worry, the tags are not saved onto firmware file)
 - Fully Integrated with Windows Context Menu (like winrar)
 - Fully Supports 512 KB firmwares (2 banks)
