    You can only use those if you have a modded Xbox (soft mod or chipped, doesn't matter).

    The disc itself can't initiate a security bypass, only a working mod will do that.

    You can't do it that way. Isn't cereal sending you xboxhdm? Use that to lock it.

    I don't suggest doing that. Anytime you mess with firmware you risk ruining the device, and flashing the drive twice is just doubling those chances...

    Can't you find a spare one somewhere? Like a friend that upgraded to a DVD burner and doesn't need his old DVD-ROM anymore?
