Sorry guys, I know this has probably been asked hundreds of times, but I've searched the first few pages in the forum and have only found bits and pieces of what I need. Can someone point me to a good, detailed tutorial of what I need to mod my 360? I've soft-modded my Wii and that just seemed so much simpler compared to this 360. I've seen people post about Ixtreme and JungleFlasher. Do I need both softwares? How do I find out what drive is in my 360? Do I need to purchase anything- ie., a specific burner to backup games like the Wii? I've seen the tutorial on backing up games, but I'm just not exactly sure on where I need to start to mod my box.

I would highly suggest you spend a good few days reading the posts on this site including the ultimate sticky.

To be brief

You will need THIS SATA card

This Program called Jungle Flasher

And one of these firmware packs for your drive

Samsung

Hitatchi

Liteon

Benq

click HERE to see which drive you have.

You will need to put your firmware in the firmware folder on Jungle Flasher, start up Jungle Flasher and click 'User Guide' on the splash screen.

There may be some other things you need to do depending on what drive you have but you will have to spend some time on this site reading the post I have mentioned.

Come back if there is anything that you cant find.

Good one!
If you don't have anything worth reading, like even a link, why bother posting? Maybe you can't read cause I apologized up front about asking these questions again.
Anyway, it looks like I have the Benq drive. Do I need that specific SATA card, or can I just use a spare port on my pc's motherboard? Also, what about the ixtreme software? Will I need that also or not if I use Jungle Flasher?

Glad to see you have nothing better to do than come into threads which you obviously have no input. You see the title, you know what it's about, you can ignore the thread and be on your merry way, yet still you come in and post no useful information. How old are you, 12? Do me a favor and just ignore this thread. How hard is that? If the mods feel my thread isn't worthy of being on the forum, I'm sure they'll do something about it. Other than that, I don't see the word "moderator" under your name.
BTW, thanks for bumping my thread...

Knock off the attitude bd911
Let's try this too - move your mouse to my sig & left click on the hyperlink that says 'forum rules'. Pay close attention to #6 and latter half of #14

You do either need that SATA card or a nForce Mobo for the BENQ's AFAIK. I believe you have to put it in Vendor Mode also, but im not sure how. If you install Jungle Flasher, follow the User Guide on that and it will tell you exactly what to do.

bd911 is correct though, you do need to use the search button, it will show this question or similar questions have been asked multiple times eg. HERE which is why he is coming at you with the attitude.

If you do have any questions that you cant find the answer to, let me know.

I apologize for bending the rules.

I still feel the OP should be using "his" mouse to read those rules and also the stickies, his answers are in there!

Do you not think that I said it nice enough? I provided advise and then suggested search. Plus this comment by me

LOL, I was just saying that I agreed with using search is a good first starting point as stated in my first reply. I did also quote both the BD911 and the MOD so i was agreeing with them both.

In no way did I mean to flame the OP and apologies to the OP if it was taken this way. Just a couple of month ago, I was in the same place as the OP, being new to the xbox modding so I know first hand what its like.

Would also like it noted that I am the only one who has actually helped the OP with this problem (after 15 replies).

@OP sorry to hijack you thread with this. If you do need more help though, please do ask, our bark is worse than our bite :D

My god this has turned into a use the search button thread.....
Agreed as that is a rule but there is still NO need for an attitude.
So enuf on that subject - I think we all get the point.

Now if the attitude would have been different my response may have been different....

I've seen much worse btw - at least rage4ordr made some attempt at searching albeit not all that successful.

I am in no way condoning people not searching - but I also don't condone s.a. remarks. Leave it alone instead - it's only the internet.

Look, sorry again for asking such a "generalized" question. Prior to posting my question, I'd read thru the first 2 pages in this forum and Googled a few searches. I guess I was confused and was more looking for a starting point than anything. I started reading thru the "guide me" in Jungle Flasher and that just seemed to confuse me even more. Maybe it'll make a bit more sense when I actually get down to the mod but I was trying to read before doing anything to get an idea of the process. Thanks Mike and to others who actually gave some helpful input.
BD- dude, like I said, I've read thru a bunch of threads and I see that you have a lot of knowledge and good input, but I don't appreciate you coming in my thread and essentially calling me names. This is not my first forum and I know all about the "Search" function, so next time, just stay out of a thread if you have no helpful information.

I apologize for coming off like an a$$ but why must you keep addressing me? The mod has spoken to me and I laid off of you. Practice what you preach, quote from you: "just stay out of the thread if you have no......" Same goes for you dude, stop adressing me and I will have nothing to say to you until I can offer some intelligent help. Goodluck with your flashing endeavors!!!

The subject was dead so let's leave it that way. You can leave the attitude too - it's really not called for from anyone.

bd911 i remember you and me being on oppisite sides through a similar thread fight (something with an edit button). It happens on this forum a lot, you just have to have patience and sometimes you just get fed up. It happens to everyone as they become more and more part of the forum. I could throw out specifics but i'm not even close to on topic.

Don't even think about looking at my signature, there's nothing useful there.

(off thread topic again, my apologies OP)
I remember, vividly! Some of my remarks bordered on harassment. Lol. I felt as though your remarks were sarcastic and condiscending but I have since learned otherwise. I had no respect for you. I should have, and do now. The honest truth is your posts are some of the most easiest to understand and in depth posts in the whole 360 forum. Although we disagree on some of the "trick" fixes I have realized you are an asset to the community. Thanks C4RN1.

*thumbs* I appreciate that bd911, and i know the trick fixes aren't for everyone. Especially if you work with the right equipment that will fix it correctly the first time.

Sorry about the late response, my car is 6 feet in the air without a motor or trans...needless to say i've been busy.
