How to Softmod with SID 4.0! Tells how to get on XBL too!

Yo guys i neeed some help. I tried to softmod my box but my plug was loose. It came out in part 1 of installation (copying files part 2 is when it actually installs). Now when I boot up xbox to dashboard it just stays at a black screen (the same for AID) and when I try to boot an original it stays at the Xbox TM Microsoft screen. Can you tell me if its a brick or how to fix it if it can be fixed please. Thanks in advance.

Anyone know where I can get the action replay software? I've got the adaptor but can't find the disk anywhere.

*FOUND IT*

 

hey, i'm pretty much a newb to this stuff..
but, every time that i've tried to softmod, the screen either goes blank, or it freezes..
can anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong?

 

Don't unrar each file in, just put the whole .rar in the Mem card.

 

Ok does someone have a solution to my prob? PLZ

hi all....im having trouble trying to get the gamesave copied into the xbox...im doing this using an already softmodded xbox to which i ftp into the memory card to transfer the files...when i insert the memcard into the retail state xbox and open the memcard then i see the two files but when i press A it only shows delete...how is it exactly that i have to transfer the files into the memcard? do i need to extract the sid installer.rar which has a updata folder with a numberfolder inside and copy the updata folder into the memcard or do i transfer the numberfolder only? somehow before i was able to copy the gamesave(splinter cell in this case) into the hdd but the sid installer file would only delete...any help will be appreciated...thanks

RAR is a compression type, and you will need winrar to open it.

I have read in a few places that the latest softmods will allow any sized hard drives to be used. Has anyone here had experience with the latest softmods on large drives?

I am interested in getting a 750GB drive to work. I think I am currently running an older softmod. I am having a data corruption problem after 250GB. I have tried using the XBpartition software to make F&G drives with 32Kbit clusters but I receive a "LBA48 info not found" warning that says that I can't make custom partitions without updating my bios.

If the most recent softmod will not solve my problem, is there any way to update the bios without chipping the box?

My XBOX is a v1.0, thanks for your help.

 

I heard SID Kills Your Xbox is this True

 

Not unless you know what you are doing! It's very simple, and pretty difficult for it to "break" your Xbox. Common sense and following a tutorial works wonders.

 

mik3h whats up bud wow its been a while since i'v last posted here and i can't belive this thread is still alive.

 

Haha! Yep

 

Anybody left posting here lol ??? If so I followed this guide to the exact word and everything has worked so far except for one thing once I go into the splinter cell game click Linux the click CHECKPOINTS twice the xbox freezes on me.... I read all the posts and I have found nothing that helps. Hopefully you guys will be able to help me out. Thanks for the great guide.
