if you want to use a stock xbox hd that you have lying around it must be unlocked...and if none of them are unlocked you might as well just throw them away because they are useless(unless you have the motherboards they came with)...only option is to buy a stock unlocked hd, or go to the store and get a brand new upgraded hd.

error 5 means the hd is unlocked...so you must lock it to boot the retail bios...and you don't know which hd went with your mobo? hmm, don't know what to tell you...even if you do have a unlock hd, you will need a modded xbox to lock it.

In about half an hour i will have an unlocked 'stock' xbox hard drive with a new dashboard already installed if anybody wants it....will probably work with whatever you can throw at it. Works with modded xbox, i.e with x3 chip (if you didnt fry it)

Lock the hard drive to your modded box with evolution x if you have it, if not, hollar for a boot disk.

sorry PAL, cant help you there, the one i have would only work with an un-modded box if you installed it first, then locked it and took the chip out. You can buy stock hard drives on e-bay for next to nothing.
