Unlock Xbox HDD for PC use...how?

i dont under stand what u mean
open it up and look at what the head and stuff dos and then how do i reset it ????

 

liquid51 I DID remove the zeroes. Still it didnt work for me after about 20 retries and rechecks. It gave me the message that it unlocked it, however the command 'hddisabl' didnt work, which was instructed by the tutorial to be inputted. Even though it said it was unlocked it didnt show up in windows as a drive, which is why i couldnt format or partition it. Must be something else. And as I said earlier, I have been informed by other people that they have the same problem with this process. However i congatulate u on ur success.

 

often times evoX's backup function is used after the new hdd is installed. It's a good idea to backup the eeprom. But, that backup contains the lock/unlock key for your new hdd, not the original. The dos driven unlock program WILL say the hdd has been unlocked even if you use the wrong code. It will not however disable the lock with the incorrect code. Trust me, the exact same thing happened to me the first time I tried it. I then took apart my xbox and stuck the old hdd in, ran backup, got the correct key, and the rest worked a trick.
I'm willing to bet everyone ran backup after the new hdd was in, just to be safe and have an updated eeprom backup (it is a good idea). But, along with that is the incorrect key.

 

my xbox has no video out put is there a way to put any software and unlock the drive???
