If you installed the softmod correctly you should have been able to 'Dual Boot'. 'Dual Booting' allows you to run the stock dash (Live capable) and the custom modded dash at the same time.
Anyway, to unsoftmod, just start the softmod process again and click on 'Uninstall Softmod'
I haven't done it yet (still waiting for delivery of an action replay)
But let me get this straight, with Dual-booting, can you be on Xbox Live without being detected and banned by MS? most of the tuts I've read said otherwise.
No! If you're banned, you're banned via the eeprom.
I'll clarify:
When you softmod correctly "Dual Boot" you effectively install 'Two' dashes, the OEM M$ Dash and the modded one.
The M$ dash stays in the C:\ whilst the modded dash (Evox, UnleashX, etc) stay in E:\
If you boot the Xbox via the 'Power' Button (Small button) it will boot the modded dash. If you connect to Xbox Live you WILL be banned!
However, if you boot the Xbox via the 'Eject' button (Large button) the M$ Dash will load and the Xbox will appear and play like an unmodded Xbox. You can use Live from here with original games only, as backups will not work (unmodded).
No. I believe hes talking about what version he uses to get the saves, or FTP. No, I don't believe it does. I don't know. You could maybe get them another way...
