I done this a while ago. I think i done it by accident but anyways thats done now, i was wondering is there anyway i can get this fixed? Its not modchipped. Can i not just buy a new (bigger) harddrive and install the xbox software on that through my pc? if there is a way can someone please let me know. Even if i have to modchip it.
Thanks guys
Also is there a guide somewhere about putting a bigger harddrive in with out having your own xbox ISO?

For future reference guys..
If you accidentally delete the MS dash on a softmod there's a simple little hack that works about 80% of the time.
We call it "The Halo2 Fix"
Pop a late issue live enabled game like halo2 (hence the name) without any network connection.. Cold boot the game and go to live settings. A screen pops up with text along the lines of "updating dash files"
Wait for it to complete. remove the disk.. reboot and you should have a working ms dash again. You usually need to redo the softmod.
Give it a go in the first instance. It has been tested lots of times (I have used it myself many times on messed up softmods, with varying degrees of success)

If it was that simple, you could just reinstall the modded dash...
That trick normally only works for Error 21 situations!

And error 16.. I deleted various dash files while testing this trick.. The one that doesn't seem to be replaced is the xboxdash.xbe and that's why it isn't a 100% fix. For the time it takes to try it's always worth a go.
If original games don't boot it's a different matter.. that's the sign of a missing C:\xboxdash.xbe

if error 21 still occurs seek medical attention (sounds like cheesy medical advice on shampoo lol) if it still happens that means the mod chips not in right
did you get a programmer with ur chip u might need to put a bios on... unless its already on and check that all the points on the mod chip are installed firmly and without a short.. check every point and in the mod chip instructions it should say that you can boot the xbox using the switch on the mod chip that boots the bios try playing with the settings....
if it boots to the bios shove in slayers disc or AID (auto installer deluxe) or if you can get a browser you can download a copy of the dash and somehow transfer it accross
good luck
hey does anyone know if the xbox can understand C or C++ coz i can make an installer kinda like a batch file that extracts its stuff to the main C partition probably only works with the bios
anyone tell what Programming language bioses are written in... i might be a able to make a browser.... I can code in almost anything lol (im not boasting much) XD
