Hello!

I installed a softmod on my old XBox (which wouldn't read most discs), but the problem is that it was all in French so I made some mistakes. (it said "http://gueux.be" on the screen if that helps)

I installed using this tutorial: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/218495

I used this version of the UXE:
"Auto installer for Uber Xbe Exploit that works with MechAssault hacked gamesaves.

The save automatically detect your Xbox version and will give you the choice between 2 install options:
* Install for XBox 1.0 to 1.5 (X2 4981 bios)
* Install for XBox 1.6 (Evox M8+ bios)

In the 2 cases, the save will auto install:
* UXE exploit + PBL - The Metoo Edition
* Unleash X (version 037_1207A)
Also, the MS dashboard will be auto-patched to allow to launch UnleashX from the MS dash directly (thx to Kambiokika for his FontsPatcher).

The gamesave also allows:
* Take a backup of the original C-drive before any modifications.
* Restore of this C-drive backup.
* Save of mains Xbox parameters (eeprom.bin, bios.bin, ...)
* Cache cleaning
* HDD explorer
* FTP acces with IP:192.168.0.7

I DIDN'T backup my hard drive because I couldn't read most of the options and didn't know how.

The problems are:

1. I installed the version for XBox ver 1.6, when mine in fact is 1.1b. Is there some way to change this? I tried exiting to the UXE installer and reinstalling the version that ISN'T for 1.6, but I get some crazy error in French about fonts (I think)

What does the version effect? I think it keeps me from ripping games from the DVD drive but I'm not sure. Is it safe to install the whole thing overtop of the current installation? Or can I manually correct the error?

What is "Allow uninstall" for? Would this help?

2. Since the install is in french, the folders are too. I was able to rename my menu options (edited the code by hand before I realized you could rename options on the dash), but my folders themselves are still screwey ("Games" is "Jeaux" for example), which I think keeps XBMC from recognizing my emulators/ progs/ etc. Would it be safe to rename these or would it break a bunch of "links" internally?

3. Is there a way to edit the UXE installer menu back to english? I ask because I really like this version and am familiar with it, and would prefer to stick with it if possible..... it sucks I missed out on all those options because I was afraid to click on them....

4. I have an F drive that doesn't really seem to exist. Is this because I installed the 1.6 version?

I appreciate any help that anyone can offer. I have more questions but I forgot them. These are the important ones anyway......

Go here and ask these nice folks, as they're the ones who make the french version:

http://gueux-forum.net/index.php?s=08aa141d4c4db49eba6e8d2546a500...

As you can see the forum is in french. You'll notice I wrote my posts in english, but then posted the Google french translation underneath just in case. :)

They said my english is easier to understand than Google's french but it doesn't hurt.
