    Step by step

    - install modchip for your xbox version as instruction on X3 site

    - download X3 bios and flash bios as instruction on X3 site

    - download autoinstaller disk like AID, Slayer, SID. Extract the iso inside it then burn into DVD-R/CD.

    - Xbox should load this disk.

    - Install a big new hdd inside xbox.

    - load the autoinstaller disk

    - follow the main menu: format hdd, install dashboard , install emulator, install apps.

    done

    TheReturn,
    I copied all of the files from my friends Xbox (C & E ) to my xbox. No change, I still get the need service screen. I don't have a number in the top left.
    Where do I go from here?

    you need to download Shademand softmod file 324MB on the first page. then extract it all the way until you have C and E folder on PC.

    Then do hotswap again and follow my instruction to copy shademand file to xbox's hdd.
