I recently installed a 120 GB HD. I backed up c and E. when I try to ftp the contents of my previous HDD which was modded (executer2/evox)to the new one it only allows me to transfer the C drive. On the evox dashboard it says that the space available is 0 for all drives but C. This makes me think that the new HDD is not formatted correctly. so my question is there a way to format the drives without making another boot disc because that is another issue. Any help or links would be greatly appreciated.

There is an option somewhere either in your EVO X DASHBOARD or BIOS to format your hard drive. After you format the extra drives, e and g, or whatever you do, then you have to customize the evox.ini file to support the new partitions. So for example here is what I had originally for one part on my evox.ini file,

Section "Root"
{
Item "Launch Game/DVD",ID_Launch_DVD
Item "Trainers",ID_trainer
Item "MS Dashboard",ID_MS_Dash
Item "Reboot",ID_Quick_Reboot
# Item "Power Cycle",ID_Full_Reboot
Item "Power Off",ID_Power_Off
# Item "Lock Harddisk",@210
# Item "Unlock Harddisk",@211
Section "System Utils"
{
Item "Settings",ID_Settings
Item "Flash BIOS",ID_Flash_Bios
Item "Backup",ID_Backup
Item "Skins",ID_Skins
}
Section "Launch Menu"
{
Section "Games"
{
AutoAddItem "e:\games\"
AutoAddItem "f:\games\"
SortAll
}


For me, I needed to add the g: support, so you do this,

Section "Root"
{
Item "Launch Game/DVD",ID_Launch_DVD
Item "Trainers",ID_trainer
Item "MS Dashboard",ID_MS_Dash
Item "Reboot",ID_Quick_Reboot
# Item "Power Cycle",ID_Full_Reboot
Item "Power Off",ID_Power_Off
# Item "Lock Harddisk",@210
# Item "Unlock Harddisk",@211
Section "System Utils"
{
Item "Settings",ID_Settings
Item "Flash BIOS",ID_Flash_Bios
Item "Backup",ID_Backup
Item "Skins",ID_Skins
}
Section "Launch Menu"
{
Section "Games"
{
AutoAddItem "e:\games\"
AutoAddItem "f:\games\"
AutoAddItem "g:\games\"
SortAll
}

See where I manually added in the g: there...

Let me know if you get it to work... Otherwise I can go into much more detail...
