    DO NOT GET A SPYDER! ive bin trawling thru loads of forums trying to find help with my live problem and ive seen nothing but bad things bein said bout the spyder,sorry!
    I spose it depends wotya wana do wif your xbox, if tis just to play backups or saved games i wud stay wif an Xecuter. But then again u mite hear different fings from different ppl.

    Xecuter chips actually have a solderless adapter you can use. I've been using Xecuter Chips for a while now and haven't had any problems with them. I haven't tried out their solderless adapters because I just solder the chips to the board myself. I'm sure the adapter kit will work just as good.

    Now I've been hearing about the new Live Update and how it still detects modded xbox's even if the chip is turned off. Is this true and if it is, is there any solution yet to this?

    do you need to lock the hd. if so just use evox it is really easy in the evox.ini there is a part that says
    lockhd and a bunch of other stuff in front of it is like # that i think just erase everything before it in the ini. now go to evox and click that it will lock the hd with the key so you can boot with out the mod chip on.

    in the c drive on the xbox there should be a bunch of folders do you have evox.xbe and evox.ini in there?

    Bat_man, yes you would need to hook your xbox to your pc to get to the ini file. If you have Evox loaded into your xbox, follow the steps below.

    Once you are able to hook your xbox to your pc go to the C folder, and look for evox.ini
    Once you have found it transfer that file over to your computer.
    Next open it up and scroll down to the bottom till you see something that may look like this

    # Item "Lock Harddisk",@210
    # Item "Unlock Harddisk",@211

    Remove the "#" sign so that you will be able to see that option when you get to the main screen of evox.
    Save that file and transfer it back to your xbox.

    Restart your xbox. You should now see an option to lock or unlock your HD on the main screen when you turn it on. Lock your HD from there. Now you can go ahead and add the "#" signs again so they will not appear on the main screen of evox and no one can mess with it.

    Hope this helps you out
