Upgrading HD on Softmodded Xbox Tutorial

is there a step by step guide how to do this , so i dont fucx it up :/

 

i want to put a 250gb hard drive to my xbox but dont want to soft mod my original hardrive ( xbox is not modded).

Can i a) use a 250gb hard drive so it recognize all the space

b) extract the eeprom by hotswapping my orginal drive

Any help?

Thanks

 

you cant use another HD IF u dont wanna :
a- get a chip installede

b- use a softmod!

 

Thanks for the reply

can i hotswap it and do the soft mod up to the stage where i dump my eeprom.bin to my pc. I presume i will not have a soft mmodded box as i wont be selecting "install softmod" from the menu ?.

If not guess i,ll will just have to soft modded and hope nothing goes wrong with either drives.

 

You need to softmod the org xbox drive but this dosnt mean u cant go back and make it like it was before.

You need to do a softmod so u cant FTP , without FTP u cant do anything!

The steps are clear and simpel

1- Read the guide over and over again
2- buy wht u gonna need
3- just do it.

anyway i did my softmod and as LONG as u rember to copy over the drives and make a backup of the eeprom u are safe.
ANYWAY READ THE GUIDE/S

 

I got the same problem:
Softmodded Xbox (2.8 Evox dash)
300GB HDD
G drive enabled

But only have like 126GB of space?

 

OKay i am having a problem. I followed all the directions and made my boot disc. But when i run it, it brings me to DR-DOS. Theres a whole menu type thingy but i cant do shit and im confused. SOmeone pleassse help me!

 

y cant i put the iso on a blank CD-r....i have to use a blank DVD-r using nero....what up with that......thx.....

 

Okay i got it to work! Use DVD Decryptor to burn the ISO! Go to mode, iso, write and select the file. it worked im soo damn happy and xbox live works too. sweeeeeet

 

I can get to loading the default option 1, then there is a whole heap of text, and the bottom line is..

"PCI: cache line size of 128 is not supported by device 00:03.3"

any suggestions?

 

if your boot disk is in a DVD burner it wont work
Thats what happen to me any way

 

After you type "1", there will be alot of loading. Then when its done, you can type. THere type "Xboxhd".

 

Twitch- If you have a DVD burner i would put money on it being a Cd Burner additionally. Make sure you select which device you would like to use when burning.

 

yea its a dvd/cd-rw drive but i also have a lite on DVD drive i use to make the boot disks and it works fine


But i still cant figure out the limited space issue

 

RUDE AWAKENING: My xbox was banned. The error was something about a modified something or other. I upgraded my harddrive and worked for over 24 hours. Yet randomly it just banned me. I dont know what heck happened. Luckily, i had a freind who gave me his eeprom.bin, but some of you may not be that fortunate. Can someone explain why i got banned? I mean i modded on it. But it was in custom games, on an account that was banned from matchmaking. I don't know why this happened and its killing me. I had Mimesis installed on it, but i took the maps off, and the App, and the udata files. Could this have been why i was banned?

 

Is it possible that i got banned simply becuase i upgraded my harddrive?

 

yes

 

Do i have to follow that whole marriage theory thing? Does the name i use have to be created on that harddrive? I never understood this, because why does it work if i bring my name via memory card to a freinds house?

Or is my upgraded harddrve simply useless?

 

Ok dude you can not have anything modified on your xbox when you go on xbox live thats what xlink and xbconnect are for. and yes your xbox is now dexbox lived.

 

football - dude when i wud mod on my stock harddrive it wud only ban the account it wud never ban the harrdrive
