don't suppose you backed up your original c drive files did you?
my brother had this problem and we had to use the slayers auto installer 2.5 to format his hdd and reinstall evox and all the apps again
also make sure you have
msdash.xbe
and evoxdash.xbe on your c drive aswell

i think you should give it a go with install upgrade first because that will overwrite what files you have and install the ones you should have if that don't work then i reckon a clean format and install on retail hdd you can't go wrong with the first one try and see
good luck
let me know how you get on

6 - kernel - Cannot unlock HDD

7 - kernel - HDD timeout

8 - kernel - No HDD found

9 - kernel - HDD parameters (PIO/DMA/or size {debug}, certain size minimum is required for debug)

10 - kernel - DVD timeout

11 - kernel - No DVD Founnd

12 - kernel - DVD parameters (PIO/DMA)

13 - kernel - Dashboard launch fail (due to missing/bad key, or anything else that would prevent it from running) and the dashboard didn't specify why it failed.

14 - dashboard - Error loading dashboard (dashboard generic error)

21 - anywhere - This error says that the machine was booted to display a error, basically someone told the machine to reboot (or launch a xbe) with this flag, and the error code just means its been rebooted by the flag
