Help please im trying to install the soft mod for xbox. I took a mem card and have been doing it with mech assault and i have mxm as the dash. I put it on a memory card from another modded xbox and after all is said and done I cant get flashfxp to reconize that the un-modded xbox is hooked up. I cant figure out where im going wrong. Please help, thanx.

Weird problem using Xboxhdm to build a new HDD.

Did all the "yes" commands, then when asking if i would like to continue copying files, it builds drive C:\ in about 5 minutes like you said it would. However when building drive E:\ it never finishes... i left in on over night thinking that it would just take a long time as I have XMBC installed on that partition on the iso...

The HDD light is still going and the cdrom light is still going.

Don't know if you still check this thread or not, but if so I would really appreciate some insight on this..

Edit: I thought I might add, it's a 320GB hard drive so I thought I'd see if there is anything i need to do to support the larger harddrives. Also, do you have to unlock a new hardrive before using it?

It might be a good idea to add that you should make a backup of your C: and E: as well as your consoles eeprom.bin so that at a later date you can restore your xbox to its original dash, and upgrade to a newer softmod.

The problem I am having now is that the bios included with this softmod is so old that it does not support large HDD's. So my 320GB HDD is only showing 137GB and I need to install a new softmod to take advantage of the rest of the drive, however I can't return to a fresh install, so I can't update the softmod...

Just so it's not confusing, the post above is me as well... ( I forgot to logoff my girlfriend, as I was on her computer.)

There is a really good application that you can burn to CD and boot your console from.

CASH v1.1 is able to update ANY softmod to the newest softmod; Krazie's Ndure v1.1.1 ( Can be found on bittorrent trackers )

This was necessary to get access to the remaining part of my large hard drive as the softmod bios in this tutorial is really old.

After you've updated with CASH v1.1 it was also necessary to format the G: partition through your FTP.

Hope this helps anyone still having troubles with updating their HDD.

if you install a new hd will you have to save, copy all your save on to a memory card
