Well, you cant PC to format hdd for xbox.

To upgrade hdd in softmod xbox, do follows:

- download and ftp Config Magic into xbox. Run config magic to backup eeprom. DO NOT UNLOCK THE HDD.

- ftp the whole E and C drive on xbox to E and C folder on PC. DO NOT DO ANYTHING TO WORKING HDD. IT IS YOUR BACKUP HDD.

- read xboxhdm tutor 3-4 times. Make the boot CD. Then follow the tut to format the new hdd.

I need help again. I'm trying to unlock the maxtor 300gb cause I don't use it in my xbox anymore...I got a new 400gb hard drive and I think this will be better. I try the flop disk boot trick but it don't work. You have any idea how to unlock it?

Oh yeah the hard drive don't work on my xbox anymore .. So i can't fix it by autointsaller. And when i try to fix it by booting up the disk . The pc can't detect it, When i try to format it back to a pc hard drive using the maxtor program it can detect it but can't format it....Any help would be cool.

1/ how did you lock the 300GB hdd?

2/ Did you follow my instruction? did you backup eeprom and ftp E, C drive to PC? Did you create a boot disk for xboxhdm and format the hdd? DO NOT LOCK THE HDD, JUST FORMAT IT.

Then I will help you so PC can read that hdd.
