I'm having trouble too. I was able to format, partition, copy over myy C and E drives, and lock the drive without any problems. When I put the drive in my xbox I get the call customer service screen. I'm going to try a few more things, and will update if anything fixes the problem. Thanks in advance for any help.

It doesn't give me an error code, it just says to call customer service. I'm pretty sure I have the right eeprom. I put ConfigMagic on my retail hdd and used that to back up the eeprom. That's what I ftp'd to my computer and put on the xboxhdm disc.

This time I used the eeprom from my E:\UDATA folder, it said it locked successfully, but when I install the drive I still get the call customer service screen.
BTW, I'm trying to upgrade to a 40GB Western Digital (WD400BB-00DEA0) hdd. I've checked online, and it is lockable, I haven't had any problems locking it.

Okay are you putting the eeprom on the Disc or are you putting it on a floppy to lock the Hard Drive ? OK try putting the eeprom.bin on a floppy and try to lock it . It seems the files are missing from C: and/or the Hard drive just Is'nt unlocking .

@-DarkTekno
Did you set your CD-ROM as the first boot device In the PC BIOS ?
And When you created the xboxhdm Disc , Did you add the C:/ files from your softmod and add it to the xboxhdm C folder ? , Did you Get your eeprom.bin, etc ?

Your PC has BIOS it's like the [F8] key or something . When your PC boots hit the [F8] Key and it should take you to the BIOS where you'll see the Boot Devices .

No OS Found
Insert OS setup disk, then press any key
after I press any key, it shows this on the bottom:
DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER
I was just going from memory before. Then I went and wrote it down.

Your gonna have to look in your PC manual and Find what key you need to hit to get into your BIOS
"ok ill try it, but I said it wrong... this is what it says no matter how I boot thge PC:"
Hopefully you did'nt mess up your operating system :/
