am I required to do these for the no soldier installation? Can anyone tell me a good tutorial for NO SOLDIER INSTALLATION WITH THE XAPTER? All I seem to find are soldier installations. Also my motherboard seems to be stuck in the xbox. Any tips on how to get it out?

Depending on which XBOX? excluding version(s) V1.6a/b. You shouln't have to worry about the 'D0' as your Modchip should either have a PogoPin or some thin wire that you can direct to the closest 'DO' Point on the XBOX? Logigboard.

As for the LAN and IDE Mods There may well be One or two Chips out there that could alow this. Allthough I never heard of any! There are however plenty of Tutarials on the Web to give you an idea on how to mod your XBOX? and how to add the LED's to monitore such trafic.

But you don't need a Modchip as such to do such Mods as you'd basily just tap a LED on the IDE Cable to lite up the LED or not given the current state of IDE traffic...

Wow. Either I can't read or i'm an idiot but I did not understand that at all. I have an xecuter 3 mod chip and I am wondering if I need to soldier the D0, LAN, and HDD wires because I bought the xapter so I wouldn't have to soldier anything.

I also intend on changing the hdd. I don't know if that affects my question though.

After much work i did manage to get the motherboard out so forget that problem.

Again I don't know how / if the X³ can help you on HDD & LAN LED's.

As far as upgradeing the HDD, goes! I'D HIGHLY RECOMEND you get ConfigMagic, to unlock / relock your HDD. The Problem is in order to use Live! / M$Dash DVD Playback etc.. You will need to use the Retail Firmware which requiers you to have, your HDD Locked!

On the flipside you you try to install a Drive that (say from another XBOX?), or you wish to use the Stock 8~10Gib HDD in your PC. You will have to make sure that, that HDD is unlocked! Or you will land up with a nice Paperweight. Given that I wouldn't recomend you to buy a XBOX? HDD off of eBay. So if you have any plans for that HDD, make sure you unlock it from your XBOX?, before you finally remove it for good...
