xbox hard drive maker. download and put your eeprom in the eeprom folder and make the iso then boot your computer with the cd-rw in the drive and pick 4 (i think, the one with locking tools) and lock it with the eeprom on the disc, put it back in your xbox and enjoy

NO!!!

Burn it as an image! The option in Nero is "Burn Image To Disc". The option you selected will make it a PC bootable disc, not Xbox!

yes chunk you use a PC to make an xbox hard drive...you need to burn it and it should be pc bootable then put your xbox hard drive as primary master and your cd drive as your secondary master and then pick option 3 and let it load up then type 'lockhd -a' and it should say something with a yes or no choice pick yes then it should lock then once its done type reboot turn the pc off and take the hard drive out and there ya go but do use Nero and burn image to disc but it still does need to be a bootable disc

Your EEPROM must be labeled "eeprom.bin", is that what you have?

@ Nu2Mods

Maybe you should read what I wrote again!? There is a MAJOR difference between a bootable disc and an image file. The fact that the image file contains bootable software, does not mean it should be written anything other then an image! Nero has the option to burn both, and they are very different options!

the iso is burned as an IMAGE, is the hdd that wont unlock...the eeprom loads from the floppy, and it loads a bunch of passwords, then shows the hdd status as maximum security, locked and security enabled..is it supposed 2 unlock when you load the eeprom?
