Softmod Restore

do u plug the IDE cable into ur pc after the error message shows up??

 

no.
boot up xbox and wait until the microsoft logo appear under XBOX. Then quickly remove IDE cable from xbox hdd and connect the one from PC to it.
Then press any key to continue load windows. Do not turn off xbox.

 

so right when the microsoft logo comes up take it out.like the little white words? can i take it out when it's blank??

the microsoft logo doesnt even appear it goes straight to the error scren

Im guessing im FUx0red

 

for the last point, y wont the softmod xbox be aable to read it still?

what if i remove the password?

 

no. microsoft have to appear. If you talk it out to early, the hdd is not unlock yet. if too late, the error code shows up and hdd is lock again.

what error code now

 

what actually did you do hdd? unlock it?

 

i have no clue i was tryin 2 install a softmod with krayzie softmod or something like that it told me to insert my slayers disk then installed some files the i kept getting an error message then i plugged out that xbox 2 plug in the other 1 and the i get error 16 now

the website was http://www.biline.ca/xbox_uxe.htm

and another theory

if i plug in the softmod drive into the mod drive then put in the slayers disc to get ftp ability then restore the drive like that?

 

You can try but I let you know. The modded xbox will not read the softmod xbox hdd.

anyway you have to see the microsoft logo shows up. it is white.

 

i swear to god the microsoft words dont come up i wish i had a video cam to show u

it goes straight to error 16

 

shit. do you see the big green X and XBOX?

 

yes it goes

X
Xbox

then straight to the error 16

 

damn it. the xbox can't set clock. And it won't unlock the hdd.
when the X and XBOX shows up. how long it stays there before showing error.

 

not that long

maybe about 5 seconds when theiors a disk in

 

It screws you up.
The hdd does not have a chance to get unlock.
So you can't do the hotswap.

 

fu3k sh1t im screwed

 

You can read the xboxhdm tutor on my page. just follow the link in my sig. It may help you. Otherwise you need modchip.

Xboxhdm will take care of lock and unlock hdd. So you dont need config magic. If you can follow this tutor, you xbox will save.
