If you are banned from Xbox Live, you will need an unbanned EEPROM since Microsoft bans your EEPROM if you access Xbox Live with your modchip on. Getting a new, unbanned Xbox can be achieved by getting it from a friend's Xbox, or seeing if a website is selling them.
GETTING THE EEPROM FILE
1. In EvolutionX, do the "Backup" command in the Utilities menu. It will generate files about your Xbox specs.
2. FTP in your Xbox, or use a file manager tool, and in C:\Backup, you will find a file called EEPROM.BIN
3. FTP that to your PC HD or remember its location for future reference.
SETTING UP THE FILE FOR CONFIGMAGIC
1. Once you have Configmagic loaded onto your HD or on your PC, there will be a directory in it called DATA.
2. Move the EEPROM.BIN file, that EvolutionX generated, into that DATA directory, overwriting the EEPROM.BIN file that is already there.
3. If you are making a Configmagic CD, you can now make the ISO of it and burn it. Xbox HD users, don't worry.
RUNNING CONFIGMAGIC
1. Load up Configmagic.
2. A warning screen will be shown, press "A" to bypass it.
3. When Configmagic finally loads, it will show your current EEPROM on your Xbox. Make a note of the DVD KIT ZONE and VIDEO AND XBE REGION information.
"NTSC, Region 1" for US Xbox gamers
"PAL, Region 4" for UK Xbox gamers
4. Select "LOAD XBOX EEPROM" in the menu.
5. Select "UNLOCK HD" in the menu.
6. Load the EEPROM.BIN file in the DATA directory by choosing "LOAD EEPROM FROM .BIN FILE"
7. If you see that the VIDEO AND XBE REGION information is different, you MUST change it. Go into the menu and choose "ON-THE-FLY EDIT EEPROM". Change the VIDEO AND XBE REGION number to the proper information of your former EEPROM.
8. Now, select "UPDATE XBOX EEPROM" in the menu.
9. Your Xbox's EEPROM will now be updated with the file in the DATA directory.
10. In the menu, select "LOAD XBOX EEPROM". You will notice your EEPROM is now different! Success
11. Select "LOCK HD" from the menu.
12. Select "EXIT CONFIGMAGIC" in the menu.
IMPORTANT TIPS
- If you were using the XBOX DVD KIT to play DVDs, and the Xbox gives an error about region, load up Configmagic and change the DVD KIT ZONE number to the number of your previous EEPROM. UNLOCK the HD, choose "ON-THE-FLY EDIT EEPROM" in the menu and simply change the DVD KIT ZONE number. Then, UPDATE XBOX EEPROM and LOCK HD. Exit Configmagic.
- You can view any Xbox EEPROM using your PC by getting Liveinfo PC program. It will show all the details of an EEPROM.BIN file. You might find it easier to edit any possible changes to your DVD KIT ZONE or VIDEO AND XBE REGION using the program, rather ON-THE-FLY EDIT EEPROM in Configmagic.
- Sometimes, with a PAL EEPROM, your Xbox's time might be wrong or video settings will be different. Go into the MS dash and change the settings to the way you seem fit.

well you only need to get a new eeprom if your XBOX!!! got banned from live....aka your box won't log on to live. If your tag got banned for halo 2, then it's just for halo 2. You can just get a new tag. To go on live you can shut off your softmod or boot to a non modded state. If you are still having problems then just just xlink.

well you can do put your new eeprom in before u go on live but its better just to use your original. This being because if you get banned on your original you can put in the back up. If you put the back up in before you get banned, and then afterwards you do get banned, youll have no eeprom to use and have to get a 3rd xbox to change it

mydadsfat the kid asked if he would get banned, not for a tutorial on how to get a new eeprom. yes you will get banned if you go on live with any sort of modded material because even if your not trying to cheat your xbox is running code not authorized by microsoft so your acount will get banned in 6 hours after signing on.
for any help with cheating on halo 2 go to my website (link on bottom of page)

if your only banned from matchmaking, getting a new eeprom wont do anything. The account its self gets banned from matchmaking, not the xbox. If you get your account banned from all of live, then the eeprom backup thing mentioned will work.
