    hi guys. i tried installing a waffletools for softmodding via 007 auf. however, i think i didnt back somting up or sumtin, but now i have no ms dash. whenever u turn on ur xbox, it usually does this green blobby thingy. u know, rite? and then itll go 2 the dashboard, rite? WRONG! not on my xbox. it has a couple of dots and such in the up-left hand corner, and after about 1 or 2 seconds, error 21 comes up. it has "contact customer support" and then shows about 9 different languages. I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT SOME OF THE PEOPLE READING THIS ARE IN THE EXACT SAME SITUATION. I AM AWARE. please please please post a reply, the more helps as i can get the better. i will appreciate each and every reply, as i know you guys are taking ur time. thank you

    use the "dashupdate" option in games. Intruction:

    - Disconnect xbox to Live. Other word unplug the ethernet cable from xbox.

    - Load the game has dashupdate option.

    - click on it. This may restore your dashboard.

    If not, try to use SID or AID.

    load any game which has the dashupdate option. You can try halo2. Search around the menu, option, etc... on halo2. If you can't find it, then load another game.

    no. i didnt find the update. in halo 2 when it goes to the screen where it says "campaign, xbox live, split screen, etc.", idk where to go from there. as soon as i turn on my xbox, the green blob appears as usual, then it goes to a screen that says error 21 in the upper-left hand corner. afterwards, it just has about 10 different languages. and i dont know if this helps, but i think that i got sumtin called "christmas lights", where my eject button flashes red and green back and forth

    ok. in halo2 you have "campaign, xbox live, split screen, etc.". But no dashupdate. Then try plinter cells, or other games that you have.

    it apparently didnt delete all the memory on my xbox, since i can still go on live, and on halo 2, all my accounts are still there if thats wat u mean. some people tell me that i need 2 find an xbox game that has the dashupdate option. if so, wat r some games? some other people tell me to download the m$ dash again, and i know where i can. but how do i apply it on my xbox if i cant go 2 memory (in the dashboard) and copy it? please help me.

    i think im right on this dashupdate isnt gonna do u no good i dont think becuz everytime you sign onto live it updates your dash. so if u did find this dashupdate all its gonna do is give you a error code 21 so i would eathier pick 2 options

    1...modchip time
    2... hotswap and put the dashboard back on it

    its not my xbox, its my 19 year old brother's. if he finds that i open up the xbox, im in trouble. however, i just bought a router so i could do the mods for 70 bucks. im not in the mood for spending another 50-60 bucks on a chip. what wood u recomend 2 me? is hotswappin easy, or complicated? i know a place where i can get the download for the dashboard, right at http://files.filefront.com/M_dashboard/;4070577;;/fileinfo.html
    please tell me if theres a way to get it onto my xbox w/o hotswapping or chipping
