I've done a 2.3 and 2.6 so far (2.6 was on my mates) both are extreamly easy to do. I've never soldered anything in my life before and it was piss. I found the hard part was the fucking Bios that they don't supply you with.

You can use craxtion (free) to extract the files from the iso and then FTP 'em to your xbox.

Yes i used the slayers auo installer and i highly recommend it as it comes with Avalaunch and EvoxOriginally Posted by Livy
as for the games use a program called Quix http://www.teamavalaunch.com/qwix/
qwix will upload and extract the iso at the same time!
so you WONT have to extract the files out of the iso then upload it through ftp

whats slayers like compared to auto installer deluxe, which is about twice as big as slayers. cheers for the prog, seems cool.

isnt auto installer deluxe for softmodding as well?
also another thing u may want to add is that, that you have to lock your HDD or else ur xbox wont boot up...
and make sure ur new hdd is lockable thers a list somewhere...u may want to check xbox-scene.com and search...
in the autoinstaller for slayer theres an option for locking and unlocking hdds...
hopefully its not a repost..

yeah, im planning on getting a maxtor diamonmax 10 300gb with 16mb cache, but its not on the list.
theres 2 versions of auto installer, there a seperate one for softmodding.

just bought my hdd, 300gb maxtor diamondmax 10 with 16mb cache for £76
also looking at more chips, is the duox 2 chip any good, if i get that it will save me about £20 over the xecuter 2.6
To be honest you wanna get Slayers as its the standard, think of it as Windows in mark share. Its easy to install and works great.
did you check that the hard drive is xbox compatable by the way as some arn't.
