Error Code 5 Help!!!

i have an error code 5 and i know what it is and looked it up but heres my problem
i softmodded my xbox and had it working fine and i got curious with it one day and went to unlock my HDD and then it i went to watch a dvd on it and rebooted it and when it came back on i got an error code 5, is there anyway i can fix this without having to buy a modchip?

 

Search for "the return's" tut on hotswap and follow directions you should be good.

 

how would a hotswap help?

 

Nope hotswap isnt for locking the HD back,the only way to do that is to get your HDD KEY with an eeprom reader if you didnt back it up to the computer or buy a chip...

 

well i backed everything up on the xbox but obviously i dont know if i can even get to it

 

if its on the xbox you are not getting it without locking the HD back with a modchip...
