Hi, first off thank you to everyone that has posted all these tutorials and takes all this time to answer basic questions.
I have been trying to softmod my xbox for a week now and I don't think I am doing it right. I have 007 and but it is a platinum edition and its the game # that does not work. One of my questions is, do I NEED one of those 3 games in order to do a softmod?
What I have done so far is hotswaped xbox drive and I copied ready made partition 3 and 4 folders(mxhackxbox) using xplorer360. So my xbox boots to the time screen then i press "a" and I am at the evolution x dashboard. Now is this considered a softmodded xbox? Where do I go from here? Can I just copy over applications now by hotswaping? I am kind of lost here.
I want to be able to play roms, avi files off of a dvd and also play backup games. This is all I want it to do.
I have the aoi 4.4 i believe iso updated and burnt to dvd. I was able to get that booted up but I run into errors trying to install any apps on it. Any help would be appreciated. I am pretty good with computers I just don't understand how the xbox works.
I only use Splinter Cell, and can vouch for the Platinum Hits edition being fine for softmodding, not sure about 007 as have never tried that and can't remember what version my 007 is anyways.
Also i haven't come across mxhackxbox. I'm a simple guy, i use Splinter Cell followed by AID (Auto Installer Deluxe). I tend to install just the UnleashX dash, and 3 apps - dvd2xbox, Enigmah Video switcher and XBMC. I used to installed XBMC as a dashboard but now prefer to have XBMC just as an application.
