lol did you even do the thread ? if you have the right eeprom then you can upgrade to a bigger hard drive

*WARNING* if you have wrong eeprom.bin then you get error 06

basicly you want to prepare a new xhdm1.9 extract it put a MS DASH on C folder and YOUR eeprom.bin on the eeprom folder once your sure u got right ms dash files ( pirrup has latest build and its .rar'd) it has to be extracted before put into the C folder . once you got it all burn it then since we are upgrading hd we dont need the xbox or its oem hd so just remove the pc's hard drive and put a new hd that is LOCKABLE . it HAS TO be lockable

once hd is pluged in turn it on and xhdm should load auto and just fellow steps and once ur done ( which should take 5 mins just for ms dash and eeprom.bin which they fit on a cd size) once ur done plug it on the xbox and voila


note if u dont have or wnat to upgrade hd just do the same on everything but the only diffrense is ur trying to restore the oem hd ,

if you dont have eeprom.bin and you want to hotswap you can do the "hot" which temporarly unlocks it durring 10 sec secuquense... and oivlusly u know "swap" as in swaping once you pre program it again it is automaticaly locked ....

eeprom just makes it easier and thus alot of ppl do it to upgrade their hds....

if you never been on xbl with oem hd then you can safely use xbl with this bigger hd

but if u used xbl u'll get banned as the hd serial is diffrent...

ok..my thread did not get much response. posted it here.
http://xbox-hq.com/html/postxf7728-0-225.html
waiting for reply's a bitch...but at least i get some hope of reviving xbox without mod chip.. :p


*UPDATE*
got my harddrive reinstalled! here's what you do if you are like me, have an error 16 and error 12 when u plug out ur cdrom.

1) boot up xbox with cables unplugged frm cdrom drive.
2) juz when the indicator on xbox starts flashing, pull off ide cable frm xbox. (drive is unlocked now...)
3) plug it into ur pc with power cord still attached from xbox to harddrive
4) run xboxhdm the usual way
5) or you can follow my method (esp when ur xboxhdm dun work..like my case)
i) boot up with pc harddrive on primary master and xbox hdd on secondary master.
ii) run xplorer360 and transfer all the required files. (takes a long time though)
iii) once done, unplug ide cable off the harddrive and plug it back to xbox(with xbox still running) remember to set ur jumper to as it is.
iv) power off xbox once all the required steps' done.
