Well im totally new at this. Ive managed to get softmod working on my new xbox with Xboxhdm but only for a couple of minutes. Then it stopped and i only get the service screen.

I dont have backup of the eeprom.bin from the box. Must I have it? and the harddrive is locked and i cannot unlock it.

So I did everything right with the shademands files to another harddrive. And yes it works perfect on my other chip xbox but not on my new 1 that i´m trying to soft mod. Please help me out

I don't know much about chipped xboxes, but if you read through what we've already talked about, you'll probably be able to figure out how to remod it the way I've been describing.

Also, as far as needing to get access to your xbox without the eeprom or knowing the password, using the hot-swap method is the best (and one of the only) ways to access an xbox without one of those.

nice unrelated post. Don't waste time asking idiotic questions.
That would be similar to playing SNES games on Atari 2600. It just wouldn't work. With a 360, the games are coded for the power pc architecture as opposed to x86 like an xbox game is. Theoretically it would be possible to render an xbox 360 game on an xbox, but it would be a waste of time, because the hardware on an xbox is nowhere near powerful enough to render most xbox 360 games at full speed, especially in an emulated fashion.

ty for quick reply but im still confused Ive read all at this forum but still dont get it.
Well lets explain my problem from the beginning. I have 2 xbox. 1 with a modchip that works perfect. The other I managed to get working with softmod swap method without eeprom as it said. Notice that I dont know what eeprom is, and y it worked for a couple of minutes until I started a game. Next time when i started it I got the service screen. I did not use a original game or gamememory card to softmod it I used xboxhdm.
So then I thought hey maybe I can fix it. I tried but since I dont have the eeprom from the original xbox I cant even unlock the hd. And I cant swap it because I cant get pass service menu.

Because I cant get pass service screen I then...
Next thing I downloaded shademands cd and put the c, d folders on a new hd that i made with superdisc first on the chipped xbox. The hd works on the chipped perfect. But when I put hd in orig, xbox I get service screen.

So next thing I used liveInfo program on pc to unlock my orignal xbox hd to get the eeprom. I choosed physical drive 1 where I put the hd and save an eeprom again and thougt hey this must work. Put shademands c,d, folders and the eeprom in right place and made a xbox hd from scratch with xboxhdm with my pc and the hd. Still the same thing:( This method I read after I found out the swapmethod.

So what shall I do? Ive tried several of days with this.

No i didnt backup my eeprom since the xbox-scene tutorial didnt said so or at least i didnt read it. But i found this to restore to original but what do i do when i have the backup of c from slayer disc?

copied from the tutorial

Q: Help, I really fux0red something up and my Xbox is broke now. Why is it broken?
A: I guess I could just say it's broken because you didn't follow directions, but that would be too easy. The Xbox hard drive has a primary (important) partition which is the C:/ drive. This important drive contains the operating system, just like your computer?s C:/ drive does. A softmod will overwrite files in this C:/ drive and basically do it?s own thing, renaming folders and creating new ones, deleting stuff. In other words, whether you did the softmod correctly or your xbox is broken, your C:/ drive is nothing like it was before. If you want to get your Xbox working again, you will need a completely retail C:/ drive that has not been modified in any way. You can get this off of a SlaYer?s disc. The SlaYer?s torrent file can be downloaded at the usual place. After downloading the torrent, use bittorrent to download SlaYer?s. Once SlaYer?s is downloaded, you will notice it is actually a self-extracting archive. It is password protected, so enter this password: sevx2.6. It should extract an ISO file. To get the C files from the ISO, use Qwix to extract the ISO and your files are in /SYSTEM/ALL/C/. Yeah, I know ? it?s a lot of work, but it has to be done if you want a completely retail C drive and you didn?t make a backup of yours.

The whole point of hotswapping is lack of your eeprom backed up. Obviously it is possible. Otherwords, any of us who mention hotswapping are staging a very big hoax.

The only GOOD reason other than for the sake of learning is because you don't have your hard drive password or a copy of the eeprom.bin. Otherwise, it is silly and risky. I love doing it, but if I have the eeprom, I never do it. Don't argue when you don't really know you're right.
