Thankyou for the reply. No I have not flashed the bios yet. I can't get to the flash bios screen. When I do a long press the ms dash works fine, but a quick press gives me a FRAG. I'm pretty sure I installed the xapt3r correctly as all the lights come on.

make sure the banks are set like this
1-on
2-on
3-off
4-off
usually a frag has something to do with the connection though...

nope thats the newest bios....
i would recommend downloading AID 4.0(auto installer Deluxe) and burning it to DVD..
hook up the new HD...and boot AID at the same time it will format the drive automatically...
just follow the instructions on screen and when it ask's if you want an F drive choose yes...

yea extract the ISO file and burn it with imgburn..nero might cause probs
http://www.imgburn.com
no dummy file needed....
and for emulators and stuff like that use torrents...
also the newest version of XBMC is
XboxMediaCenter (XBMC) 2007-08-19 SVN rev9999 build - T3CH

ok i am downloading auto installer v 4.10. i had downloaded the add on before and it did not work so i hope this includes all the files needed.
to understand perfectly (1)i will then extract the files to another folder. (2) then i will burn an iso with img bur( already downloaded img burn) or will their be an iso in the aid v 4.10 file already ??
(3) after that i put the dvd in the xbox with the 120 gig hardrive i am trying to use ?? is this correct??
do i need to copy the files from the old xbox 10 gig hard drive to use on the new hard drive ?? i don't care about saved games, just the important files i need to make the new hard drive work.
also do i unzip the newest xbmc file and burn into an iso with img burn ??
another thing .. . i have had problems with the ftp to my xbox from my computer. i use usb wireless adapters to keep my home neat , instead of running cable around the home . could using my desktop in wireless format be the problem when i connect the xbox to computer it does not create a link or recognize it during a ping??? i set up a ftp protocol as in the other forums but nothing happend.

hello,
not sure if i did something wrong. i downloaded the AID v 4.10 . i then extracted the file to a new folder on the desktop. afterward i took the iso of the AID V4.10 and burned it to both a dvd + rw disk and a dvd-r disk. i then put it in the dvd tray of the xbox. i removed the factory 10 gig hard drive and attached the 120 gig hardrive to the xbox.
neither disk worked. i burned both with imgBurn.
please help :(
is their a tutorial to up grade the existing factory hardrive to a larger 120 gig harddrive. with a person having an xecuter 3ce ship with x3294 bios installed . i have no other dashboard on the xbox except for the x3294 and the original factory dashboard.
i have seen other tutorials for upgrading but i do not have an ftp available for some reason and the explanations on many tuts about backing up on the section 2 with finding system utilities does not exist on the x3294 that i know of.

make sure when you turn the console on your holding the power button so you turn on the chip aswell...
also i dont know of a tutorial for burning AID but i will see what i can do.
Xbmc either needs to get ftp'd or copied off of the disc and it isnt an iso its just a folder with files.

hi,
i just got my ftp to work. i connected it to my router and then i was able to access it wireless . funny thing though . it is asking me to upload to the xbox . do i need a different program that can access and transfer between the two??. also what is a cross over cable . i read some where that i need it for something but don't remember. at this point how would i be able to transfer the info to the new hard drive ?? i connected it to my computer but i think that becausue is used the western digital utility program it wiped out the drive to zeros. how do i get the computer to recognize it again??
i feel like i am almost their !!!! just a few more obstrqacles and i am home free lol :) :) i feel like i am 8 again lol . the things you can do with an xbox are incredible . why would microsoft not just allow this and ask for a small price in exchange ??? makes no sense to me
please help sir !! :)

the xbox gave you that error code because you wiped the hardrive you need to re-format the drive to NTFS...
just hook it up to the computer,go to my computer right click it and click format...
if it does not show up in my computer which it might not you will need to use another program like paragon partition magic to format it or maybe that Western Digital program will also format it...

hi, my son picked up the xbox at an angle from the media center i have at about a 90 degree and dropped it. now the xbox frags 50 percent of the time. what do you think in your profesional oppinion think it could be ??
i am thinking that maybe to do wires came loose in the soldering but not sure if that assumption could be correct and wanted to ask if u knew.

hey thx,
ill keep that in mind if i fill this this drive up. i gave up on the AID V4 . i got the ftp to work and i transferred the "C" and "E" drive to the computer . i also transferred the "ADMIN" and "D" folder/ drive. i am not sure what to do at this point. the 120 gig drive is formatted to NTFS and is now recognized by the computer so at least the format worked. i also fixed the :do" connection and it works like a champ.
i am confused on how to get the hard drives swapped out . please help
i read tuts on it but it confused me like " a dear in the headlights "
