Are you trying to do a complete replacement? I don't think you can do that! You still need to original installed and you just piggyback off that! Correct me if i'm wrong!?
the manuals ive read say that u dont have to buy a new ide cable the one in the xbox only has room for the hd and [bold]1 [/bold] dvd drive links to what i am following http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/dvddrive.php http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/swap-dvd.php i might be doing somthing wrong plz continue to give feedback
Just so other can learn from your experience's, what BIOS/KERNEL are you running on currently and what are you upgrading to. The more details you give the better others will learn and the more help others can give. As far as I can remember you need a BIOS/KERNEL with the "NO-DVDROM-HACK" which removes the check for a DVD-ROM. The X2 BIOS/KERNEL has this if it helps. O71G
