Heres the issue if anyone doesnt mind helping that would be amazing

I tried softmodding my old xbox the other day and i used hotswapping

simple, all was a success and i installed EvoX, but for some reason it wasnt my default dashboard and i had to access my files via Splinter Cell and open up my dashboard.

I REALLY wanted my dashboard to be EvoX by default i thought it was the coolest thing ever.

I did some really stupid stuff, including not backing up my hard drive, and not backing up any of that. and if i did it will not recover.

i hotswapped it back and i CAN delete everything in my drive to restore it

but it do not have the dashboard files for partition 3 or drive C of my xbox so it cannot run after being cleared so i am hesitant to clear out.

i cant even play xbox games because it just goes to error 21 right away even if the drive is open.

i ANY way possible can someone help me

i had a similar problem a while back.. can you ftp to your xbox then? if you can do that then you can download the normal xbox c drive's files via bittorrent.. can you access your evox dash to get an ip?
