Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
Yo, I am playing an NTSC game on a Pal Xbox, and it is in black and white. The comments on the site I downloaded the game from did not say anything about black and white, so I assume it is either because I am playing a NTSC game on a Pal Xbox, or I am playing it on a Pal TV. Any help on how to change this?
Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
Thank you and I just have to post in defense of the Hdd swapping it works hela good you just have to make sure not to drop the box that is the only way I can think that hdd could stop working (or if u are just butterfingers). Since I have cracked my box I can honestly say I cant think of any way to live without it. saves time on having to encode everything I wanna watch again. :)

Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
ok, i have another problem now, i am copying games and they are saying that the disk is damaged or dirty, the disks are not damaged as they have JUST been burnt and they are not dirty either, i thought it could be the lens on the computer so i cleaned it with a cleaning disk, didnt change the fact that it is still saying it, any ideas anyone? could it be the mod thats playing up and it isnt loading properly, also one of the games i am tring i know works as my mate has almost completed the same copy, so obviously it works on his, just not on mine, please help someone, thanks in advance and im sorry if i seam to be hijacking the thread just lately but i dont want to be making 101 different threads all linked somehow to soft-modding the xbox.
Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
well, it may be your dvd-rom drive...i replaced mine, the thomson was a manufacture defect that they never replaced...but you can always buy another rom drive online, another thought may be that somewhere in the modding something went wrong, uninstall the mod first then install it, check if it works, also try the disc your burnt in your friends xbox, you may have burnt it wrong or had an error while burning, alot of factors can cause this problem
Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
ah ok, ill try re-modding
thanks

Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
OK I followed the guide and I can play burned xbox games just fine but, I have a few questions.
When I try to play regular (non-burned) DVD movies a screen pops up asking me to install the xbox dvd kit to my controller or something like that?
and my second question is how do I save game isos to the xbox hard drive? I know I cant save that many to the hard drive because its the default 8 gig one.
one more question does the softmod automaticly put xbox media center on the xbox or do I have to install that seperatly
thanks in advance to anyone who can help
Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
I will try to answer two of the three questions for you.
1. I don't know about the movie disks.
2. If you are talking about copying games to your hard drive from the original disk, it depends on what dash you are using. If you are using UnleashX, there is a menu option for copying games. Your origional hard drive can only hold one or two depending on the game. If you are talking about games you download, you have to extract the .iso with something like Craxtion, which is free by the way, and FTP the game to your Xbox.
3. You do have to install Xbox Media Center seperatly but it is well worth it. Its not to hard to find.
Re: Soft-modding Your Xbox The Easy Way!
okay give xbox media center a whirl, and also are you direct booting the dvd, or are you waiting for your new bios to load and then putting it in and then hittin launch dvd?
