Alright heres the deal i have a modded box and it boots up to evox right now when i start it up, how would i get my box to boot to unleash x instead, i have unleash x installed on my xbox in my apps folder
f:\Apps\Unleash X\default.xbe, well i want my xbox to boot up to unleash x first and if i want to go to evox i can load it up through unleash x, cause unleash x is pretty cool.

Any help

well you could just put it in the main folder with evox and change the names around it is the easiest way to do it instead of reflashing your bios for the new dash just make sure you remember what you renamed evox as so you can add it to the config.xml

XBOX
v1.0
TSOP

omg just replace the evox files with the unleashx ones so in this case delete evoxdash.xbe and evox.ini from C:\ and move there all the files inside the unleash x folder

k-well both ways will work....but no matter what way you do remember to go through your config files to make sure ALL your paths are true.

So basically boot up the XBOX to evox, put in the HDinstall CD I made, then after that has booted, take the other hard drive out without turning power off, and put the new one in, then use the menu to format and lock HDD.

heres the trick you must get the new hdd in to power outside the xbox then unplug the id0 port only LEAVE THE POWER IN then plug the id0 into the new hdd while it is in power use a computer or power box.

so basically with my xbox open, do not unplug the power cable from the xbox HD, make sure the new HD has power to it, and unplug the cable from the XBOX HD,"not the power", to the new HD that is powered up, then click on Install New HD in evox menu, one ?

Would it be easier to FTP my box, copy my entire HD to my pc, then stick a new HD in my slave port of pc, copy all files to it, and then take it out and put it in as the primary on the XBOX

OK guys I have softmod xbox w/ orig hdd, and it was modded w/ the mechassult linux thingie...well I am wanting to have the CHOICE of dashboard of my choosing, upon booting into my audio hack...a friend modded it for me so i have no hands on expertice here, but i have had it done for quite a few months now and been play around here and there...Here it is, I have MXM as the default dash..(not by choice) but i really have no problems w/ it so far...but i see other dashboards have their advantages..All my stuff is in my E folder, but there is no dashboard folder, I only see MXM -tdatd -udata -saves -PBL -Morden and of course -apps...I want know how one in my position would go about changing from MXM to evox i think would be a nice one to try...or others even if i decide later on..but i want to see if the trainers option will work for me w/o having games on my xbox hdd..and just so i know how it is done.I would appreciate any and all help on this..prolly an old issue for some, but I haven found any help so far that is for someone like me with the orig hdd and having a softmod. i know that w/o a chip and large hdd there are alot more "limits"

ok in your c: there is a file called default.xbe take that and rename it to MXM.xbe, then download the Evox dash from somewhere and put it on your c: and you should have a file with the evox download that is default.xbe and evox.ini just make sure those are on your c: the you can play around with your evox.ini to make the menu the way you want it. I have Unleash X boot on mine and have a Dashboards menu, so if i want to switch i can, back and forth.
