    I recently installed the evo-x dashboard to my xbox, and now I have the blue screen with "Evolution-X" in the background. I don't have a clock on the screen, the disc statuse, or anything else on the sides of the screen. On my list of actions, all I have is: (in order from top to bottom) "M$ Dash", "reboot","power off","settings" and "backup". I can't access my items like the XBMC,HDD Loader or DVD. My game discs all still work and the xbox still functions properly, except for my M$ Dash which I cannot load because I must have tampered with it on accident.

    How did you load on EvoX? w/ Slayers? You could reload it on there again, because it sounds like your evox.ini file is messed up. Or, you could just FTP into your Xbox and reload EvoX on there.

    Also, w/ slayers you can reload your original M$ dash on there.

    Yeah, I used Slayer's, but I've tried reloading it and it doesn't help. I think that the problem is with my apps or just my entire E section. There also might be a problem with my items.txt that goes with it. I have also tried reloading my M$ Dash but it doesn't help. How do you load dashboards using FTP?

    Well, check out this FTPing guide:

    http://www.teammodders.com/viewtopic.php?t=128

    Hopefully that helps you out.

    Now, once your in to your Xbox, you should notice that your EvoX files are in your C: (but possibly in your E:) The files that relate to EVOX are evox.ini & evoxdash.xbe

    Now, did you customize Slayers at all when you put it on your Xbox? Or did you just burn the Slayers ISO and pop it in your Xbox w/out changing it at all? If you didn't change it at all, I could send you the evox.ini file via email so you could load it over your evox.ini file you have now.

    I didn't customize it, but I can FTP to my Xbox. Is it possible for me to just edit my evox.ini from the FTP. If I can then this is my evox.ini info:
    [BIOS]

    Current = 0xdfc6288f6b67fd021e1970491c64c0a0

    [Network]

    SetupNetwork = No
    StaticIP = No
    Ip = 192.168.0.2
    Subnetmask = 255.255.255.0
    Defaultgateway = 192.168.0.1
    DNS1 = 0.0.0.0
    DNS2 = 0.0.0.0
    SetupDelay = 0
    SkipIfNoLink = No

    Enable = Yes
    Password = xbox

    [Telnet]

    [RDTOOLS]

    Enable = Yes
    Name = EvoX

    [Clock]

    JumpToMsDash = No
    JumpIfNoLink = Yes
    Use24 = No
    SwapDate = Yes
    SNTP_Server = 0.0.0.0

    [Misc]

    GameRegion = 0
    Fahrenheit = Yes
    AutoLaunchGames = Yes
    AutoLaunchDVD = Yes
    AutoLaunchAudio = Yes
    UseFDrive = No
    UseGDrive = No
    UseItems = Yes
    ScreenSaver = 5
    ShadeLevel = 30
    TSR_Type = 1
    IGR = Yes

    Is there anything that needs to be changed in there?

    I am planning on installing my new 120 GB HDD, would it be easier to just install that and skip this HDD? How could I do that?

    Thanks for the help so far.

    Oh, I forgot, even after I install the apps and XBMC, there is nothing under my items.txt.

    Thats all you have in your EvoX.ini? Ok, were gonna start over from scratch, and say screw slayers.

    Now, You can delete everything in your E:, besides your TData & UData & cache folders. Well, you can delete your cache folder if you want, it wont hurt.

    Now, what you are going to do is send your evox.ini file that is on your Xbox's C: to your computer. Copy and paste this now in the evox.ini file, and delete everything else inside of it:

    [Misc]

    AutoLaunchGames = No
    AutoLaunchDVD = No

    Save the evox.ini and load it back on to your Xbox's C:

    Now, create 4 folders on your Xbox's E:

    1) Games
    2) Apps
    3) Emulators
    4) Movies

    Now, say you have apps you want to load on your Xbox, put them in your Apps folder, the same goes for everything else.

    Hopefully this solves your problem!

    OMG! Thanks, it finally works. What will qualify for apps and what won't? (What is XBMC? An App right?)

    lol SWEET!

    Well, it doesn't actually matter what you put in your apps folder. You could put emulators in that folder if you want. I just like being organized, and that is why I created those 4 folders for you.

    Let me know if you have any more questions!

    Okay, another question: How do you play games using the emulators? (I can only play games in my games file, and when i load my emulators there are no games) And, could you send me a copy of the M$ Dash because when I load from Slayer's, It doesn't load.

    Make sure you named your emulators folder "Emulators" w/out the quotes. It should work...

    Check ur PM

    Yeah, my emulators work, I just don't know which games go where, because there are no games under the emulators. So I get to the emulator, but I can't play anything from there.

    Well, you need to put roms in the "Roms" folders which is located inside of the emulator.
