I'm trying to install the softmod, but when I try to create MS backup I get an error saying batch process failed: found existing softmod.
any advice?

hello, i have been reading and trying out the mod quietly. i tried 6 memory sticks until i found a winner. Lexmar Jumpdrive Fire Fly 512 mb $14.99 @ wal mart. My concern is this: i transferred files to xbox put in sc and when i go to check points and push A i get a screen that has a 21 in upper left corner and in multiple languages it says "Service Required. Call Customer Support" I restart the console-everything is cool. i have been searching the forums for a similar problem-no dice. can someone help?

All I can tell you is that this error code comes up when the xbox isn't able to boot because dashboard changes have been made (ie Gcue true blue hasnt been resigned, parts of the stock dash are missing - incomplete FTP backups copied to a new HDD for example).
How to fix it, I'm not entirely sure

Did you get the SC files from my software section? As long as you use the correct files and you've had no issue with transferring them across to the Xbox, there should be no issue! You must have missed a step or something!

i did get the software from the chunkhead thread. i don't believe i missed a step. i was able to get files to xbox succesfully but when i open them i get the error message. is it possible that there was a corrupted file from the software i downloaded?

No, the software has been online for a long time, nobody else has had issues, I even use them myself!
So you used a USB stick to transfer the saves, used my USB guide to do it and are using the original splintercell!? Correct?

Ya that's what I was thinking too...
It sounds like you're saying you transferred the files to the box and are trying to run them straight from the file manager, where that is not the case.
Like Chunkhead said.... you are using the ORIGINAL Splinter Cell exploit right??

The hardest part of the tutorial which no one can do about is getting all the metarials together. Since the xbox is pretty old some of the attach ments will probably dissapear. You have to really search to find like an xbox memory card or splinter cell
After you've got all of your items it's a maximum of 10 minutes to get the softmod running
THANK YOU SOO MUCH

here is a stupid question -how many versions of sc are there? i believe it is an original. it has the guy standing up and says tom clancy down the left side.it also says download content from xbox live. is it possibly the wrong version.

well... there are actually 4 game types they are Splinter Cell, Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and the fourth one is called Splinter Cell Double agent. Then one you're looking for is the one with Sam (splinter cell)standing up and having his night goggles on with a fence behind. the title says Splinter Cell and under it says Stealth action Redefined the ones with the ratings are acceptable but I'm not too sure of the best of platinum hits ones to be on the safe side you should just go with the most previous one (the most previous ones are pretty cheap too. I got mine for 3.99 CAN while the best of platinum hits was 19.99 (prices may vary from store to store.)

when you get the SID files you should open it and just get the NK launcher and in your case Loader. Splinter Cell and do the same thing for the 5.0 version. (make sure you get whiche ever version you have like NTSC or PAL you should find the things under the T rating on the CD mine says NTSC.)
Transfer them through your Action replay thingy and then connect it to your xbox and go to the ms dashboard and then go to memory then go into your memory stick. (usually by pressing the D-Pad) then you should be in your memory stick's panel. from there go to the SID go right so your in the subfolder then press A and you should go into a sub menu asking if you want to copy or Delete, copy it onto your hard drive. When you're done copy your splinter cell save as well. when you're done make sure that all your game saves are off the xbox and into your computer or else it might not work (I read it somewhere that it doesn't work never really tried it either.) Just follow the rest of the instructions and you should be ready to go
I hope...

copy files to the xbox hdd via the usb/controller. then insert a memory card into a regular controller and copy from hdd to memory card. i was able to copy the stuff to a memory card but i don't know anyone else with a regular xbox to try it out.
