    sounds like you erased something for sure.
    You can reinstall EvoX and a lot of apps, emulators
    and games by getting Slayer 2.6
    It has a lot of options including just reformatting your HDD
    and reinstalling a lot of stuff and starting over. I think it also
    have the Unleashed X dash and possible Avalanch dash too
    But it a great program to have. Just FTP things like you game saves
    if there are any, over to your PC and reformat & reinstall

    I can get you instructions for using it if you want them.

    So you can still play games right? You should be able to re-installl the softmod through the game as you had previously done.

    go to Xbins and download the auto instaler. It has a few installers on there. "Slayer Auto Installer" or "Auto Installer deluxe" etc etc. below is a guide to follow that shows you how to get the programs from Xbins.

    This could have been avoided if you would have FTP your C: and E: folders to your computer and burnt them to disc as a backup. When you get it fixed id suggest that you do it.

    I took my old softmod off and installed a new 1 yesterday. Before I installed the new softmod I went into the game saves and deleted the game save exploit off.

    Then when I went to install the new softmod I couldnt cause i forgot to revert the Xbox back to the MS dashboard. Luckly I backed up my E: drive and just FTPed to my Xbox and copied the backup E: folder to my Xbox and got the gamesave back.

    Worked like a charm. Now I can play the newer games like NBA Live with the new softmod. But would have had alot of trouble if I wouldnt have backup my E: folder before.
