after checking this stuff out if you have a question just post up.
by the way you will need a via6421a or L chipset sata port to flash with.
this card works good.

the "sam-ofw" is your orig firmware.

open it with firmware toolbox and just make sure it has a good key.
if you have flashed it
and
it is playing games then it is a good key.
make some backups of the "ofw" for safe keeping
