Yikes!!!

I know I've been away for a while, but the rules still apply...

Please don't post your problems in this thread! Post it in the main forum and correctly label the issue in the title thread (Not "HELP ME PLEEEEEAAASSSEEE!!!", etc)

This not only makes the search function actually find results but it allows myself and others to deal with individual problems with the utmost attention!

Cheers,

Chunkhead

say chunkhead... i'm having a hard time getting xbmc to read ANY fatx drives. It keeps giving me the "unable to mount drive" error.
i'm softmodded and using an xbox to usb adapter. And i'm running the latest(or so i think) xbmc version.
cheers.

chunkhead, hows it going? Its been a long time since I visited the xbox forums or posted a reply message. Your doing a great job as you constantly keep updating your tutorials and links. My sig gives you proper props and everyone should by placing a line within their sig like I've done. I believe there is no other complete extensive array of tutorials that you've produced anywhere. Keep up the good work!

ds_dude - you're really beginning to get on my pip now. Stop multiposting and start reading some of the tutorials instead.
You obviously have no problems searching as you keep finding the main threads with all the info you need, except you keep posting to them instead of sticking to ONE thread and attacking your own questions one by one. It's not gibberish, it's really easy. Back in November 2007 i knew zip about xboxes and all i did was read chunkhead's stickies - my results are on page 2 of one of the threads you keep spamming - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/557450/4530991


I'll advise you (one more time) to stick to your own thread here - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/726268

I have an Error screen when I boot up

Error 5: HDD Unlocked. You need to lock the HDD with the correct eeprom for that Xbox. If you have a softmodded console, click here

Error 6: Can't unlock HDD. The HDD has been locked with an incorrect eeprom. Unlock again with 'incorrect' eeprom and re-lock with 'correct' eeprom. *BEWARE* softmods create two eeproms. The correct eeprom is found in E:\UDATA\2xxxxxxxxxxxxx\00000000000000\Backup

Error 7: Dead HDD. Either it's not plugged in correctly or it's dead. Replace HDD. Normally accompanied by a 'Click, Click' sound.

Error 11\12: DVD Drive failure. Most likely it's not plugged in correctly. Check connections, try a new cable or replace drive.

Error 13\14\15: Dashboard Failure. Either 'Hotswap' or rebuild HDD.

Error 16: Dashboard Failure. Normally caused by a 'Clock' error or file corruption. Use my 'Error 16' Hotswap tutorial found HERE.

Error 21: Dashboard Failure. Either 'Hotswap' or rebuild HDD. Also the error shown after an Xbox Live banning! Rebuild is the only answer, however you are permanently banned from LIVE!
* Try inserting an original game and attempt to connect to Xbox Live. You don't need to be connect to the net, but the game disc may update your dash and fix the error.*

**NOTE** If you have a modchip installed, ALL errors can be fixed with 'Slayers' disc.



i cannot run my slayers disc at all, it keeps coming up to the error 7 window. is this because it is on a cd? i also cannot take it out to hotswap because i have already done that and when i try it will not do it again?? any ideas??

Hello all!

Just a quick one, have been getting questions on other forums about my Xbox stuff...

Why are my FAQ and tutorials not Sticky's anymore?

This thread alone can answer the entire first page of each of the Xbox sections? People asking the same old stuff, time and time again, just read this FAQ, that's why I spent countless hours writing this stuff!
