And used a 2.0GB Toshiba 2.0 USB Thumb Drive and this is what it said...
"MEMORY UNIT A4
The memory unit you inserted
isn't functioning: it may be
damaged."
What's the problem??? Please help...

Follow the steps until you get to the part were the file is missing and only the usb is showing then select have disk. browse to the driver folder that you modified and select the driver file and it should show up as maxdrive.
now for my question does anyone have a copy or a link to actionreplay 1.05? the last one doesnt work

it's been almost a year since I've hacked my xbox using this forum and I'm glad it's still active.
If you're still wondering, than what's your OS (vista? XP?) and are u using notepad and not wordpad? Try coping all the text in that inf then create a new file (by right click -> new text) and name it xbreader.inf, open it and past n save. Also, the .inf extension may not be visible because of your pc's settings.

any of the four slots u r refering to can be used. i am tlking bout the ones in the front for the controller. i stop the process because i did hav the right usb, action replay would not recognise it, i did not want to waste money on buying more usb's, that is the reason y i stopped. i used a sandisk cruzer 4gb, 8gb, kingston SD 1gb, and 512mb,and 4gb, it is pretty sure that i did not hav the rite usb, and again, gud luk with the moding

I just joined to provide some insight on how I got mine working. I'm not sure what exactly happened but ...
After following the tutorial I had a Max Drive USB Device.
BUT
When I double checked USB View It showed a Max Drive connected as well as my Kingston USB Drive. The drive had different VID and PIDs. So I copied this line as well as the other into the inf file. It worked for a second, but it wouldn't let me copy save games.
I reinsterted the device into my xbox, and chose to delete everything off the memory card (even though it was empty).
When I came back to the computer I had noticed something earlier that had bugged me. When I was choosing the drivers for the Max Drive I noticed in 1.3/1.4 that there was another inf file in the same dir as the exe (for example /Action Replay Xbox/xbreader.inf and /Action Replay Xbox/Drivers/xbreader.inf)
So I copied my hacked driver into that directory (/Action Replay Xbox/) as well. AR 1.3/1.4 now read my USB Device and would write to it successfully.
Thanks for the tutorial and all the other information in this thread.
FWIW:
I used AR 1.05/1.3/1.4 -- 1.05 is the simplest version (fewest files so I reccomend trying it first)
I used a "Kingston DataTraveler 512MB" which worked
I used a "Kingston DataTraveler 4GB" and a "Kingston DataTraveler 32GB" which didn't work
Also tried "Sony Memory Stick" (various sizes/devices) didn't work as well as a Sansa e260 6GB Mp3 player with no luck.

Does anyone know if this method works on 64 bit Windows 7? I've tried 2 USB sticks now and I get an error regarding 64 bit windows so I don't know if it's because I'm using 64 bit or because the USB sticks aren't compatible.

Well, I suppose this is a ancient thread, but..
At first I couldn't install the MaxDrive driver onto my flashdrive, but I figured out that it doesn't work on Windows 7! It worked fine on my old Windows XP computer. :)
Although I'm still having problems... Using AR I put the SID files on the flashdrive, when I put it onto my XBox, under memory it recognizes the "memory stick", but when I open it there's no files on it. I plug it back into my computer and check it with AR and the files are gone!
