You have a version 1.0 motherboard and an error 7.
You will need to get a new HDD and an eeprom reader or modchip!

No, but you can get it to work...
Read my tutorials, especially the section labeled "What's an 'EEPROM'?"

Not a problem!
Basically, you need to acquire your eeprom, build a new HDD with XboxHDM and then lock it with the eeprom.

Hi i read your tutorial on building an eeprom reader. I got all the parts needed but i need to kno if using a '5.1v Zener Diodes' would be ok, instead of the "5v Zener Diodes" that you posted in the tutorial.
those were the only ones that were available

Use my HDD rebuild guide to ensure it goes smoothly! Use my files also...

hi i have a small problem. The monitor (DELL E197FP) that i am using tells me,
"cannot display video mode
Optimum 1280x1024 60Hz."
This shows up when i try to build the HD, i can see the cd boot up to the point 'Xbox HD Maker and recovery tool.' But when i select any option such as option 1, it displays the message above.
Can i do anything to change this or should i just get a friend's monitor to display the video mode.

That's a total new one for me...
Try this...
Try a different monitor if still no good, but that's kinda odd!

Hi thanks 4 all the help, the xbox is working like new. i replaced the hd and will later soft mod it. I used a diferent monitor to build and lock the new hd. I wish u could see the eeprom reader i made, looks like a total mess but it works.
Thanks again
Without ur tutorials all that i have done would not have been possible, ill recomend them to anyone any-Day.

Appreciate the compliments! Glad it all worked out for you!
Try that monitor trick though, it's handy when your screen is out of proportion!
