Sorry if this question has already been adressed, I tried to read through the whole thing but it was quite long (I got to page 3). Good Turorial though, very thourough unlike others I have seen.

I did the mod, word for word from your tut. When I finished and rebooted, the finalization process started, when it finished it shut down and rebooted into the MS dash. Now when I start my xbox up, it boots up as normal then the light turns red and stays that way (to my knowledge red is not a good color). It alwasys asks for the time when I start it up and does the same thing with both of the buttons. I am rather anxious to get my box modded, so if you could, somehow contact me (I know you are not supposed to leave emails).

Either way, I'll be checking back frequently so PLEASE HELP!!!

leave it to me to make something simple hard...

EDIT: I finally read my way through this clutted thread. Gus: you say that red means the mod is active? I get the red light but the standard MS dashboard.

Argh mateys, ye look like ye need some more seamen on yer poopdeck.

Yep you got it buddy , red means active green means retail . easy fix m8 just set correct time and date then quickly turn it off and turn it back on normaly and it should work . this usualy happens if you dont have and or set your time right . and by now your xbox is officaly modded . note this ms clock thing will happen after you leave your xbox unpluged for 3 or 4+ hrs. MUCH THANKS TO microsoft for not putting a good chip / memory device like sony ps2 did . if you need further more help hit me up www.xbox-hq.com/html

Could anyone tell me in very untechnical terms how to network using FTP. I am having difficulty with this and am getting very frustrated. I have a router connecting my xbox and my PC. No crossover cables ect. ect.

Please help!

Thanks Gus for the fix. My Xbox is now completly softmodded.

Only somehow I managed to delete my MS dash and I cant find the backup...

Anyway I can restore the MS dash without affecting my softmod?

I read all through the forum, and I've heard nothing about my problem. When I try to copy the installer to my MC nothing happens. I don't know what to do. Please help me, as I am a noob.

BigPirate how did you deleted ur dash? and why would you want to restore?...... IF your looking @ C you wont see anything this is normal... its shadowded so nobody can break the mod.

@ Cavadara once you download aid 3 transfer the zipped files to your mem card then go to memory section on the xbox and choose hd then choose mem card and look at the files them self not the folder and copy them .... it should be 2 files.

AND Cavadara dude just buy a damn game your modding your xbox get real... they only cost between $5-15 bucks i got mine for 10 and i love 007 agent under fire... you can get them on ebay or eb games or gamestop or any pawn shop... and make sure they arent platinum.

@ capnarg

the reason your mem card wont save anything is because your not puttin the right stuff in it!

if you want linux on ur xbox there should be a save in community saves on your xbox it should say "linux launcher"

No, I've tried getting help from everyone. They've even sent me the stuff I need. It just won't drag and drop. Nothing happens. I even opened the AR through the C drive and inserted the files but they don't appear. I can't figure it out.

I would like to restore my MS dash, but keep the softmod in place. I need xbl access (yes, I know banhammer. I have dual boot retail installed but it only either boots into a game or into the UnleashX dash. I need to get to MS dash to set up a trial account (just for custom games, I am fully aware that bungie bans).

So i would like for dual boot to work but it only boots into UnleashX and says the file doesnt exist when i try to access it.

so your saying when you tried putting dual boot=retail it installed fine but you dont see a microsoft dashboard right? this is normal.... on sid 4.5 the ms dashboard will NOT be fully displayed if you want to change a setting to to modded mode ( red ) and run ms dash from there... but for retail ms dash cannot be fully loaded...

sid 4.0 however does have ms dash .... mb thats what ur syaing ,, pm me 4 more info or hit me up in www.xbox-hq.com/html
