    I was just fooling around with the 'file explorer' on the Unleash X OS, when i deleted my bios, or what i think was my bios. The file was called default.xbe if i can remember correctly, im not 100% sure though. It was in the C://. When ever i turned on the xbox i went to the screen that says ' xbox needs service ect ect'. But at that point of time, games would still launch. It was only after that the power plug was removed, and now nothing works at all. I think it has to do with the clock that i cant see! I tried to ftp and that doesnt work either!! PLEASE HELP MEE!

    PS. Im using the softmodding methoddd!!!!!

    Default.xbe is probably for unleash dash.

    Do you dual boot on C drive? if you do, (xbox is off) hit the eject button on Xbox so the dvd drive opens and xbox will turn on. Then it will load the ms dash.

    If this is not working then you need to download unleashx. Extract on PC you will see the default.xbe.

    Then do the hotswap to copy the default.xbe back to C drive. I have a tutor on my page. Just follow the link in my sig.

    if you would have left the xbox pluged in it would have still played games. after leving it unpluged for like 5 hours all the left over power is drained and and it causes it not to play anymore

    You can reinstall ms dash with hotswap too.
