i tried taking out the hdd and disconnectiong ird cables before it boots and connecting it to pc- it didnt work-

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

Error 16: Same as above, however, if 'Hotswapping' unplug the DVD drive and allow the Error 12 to appear, then continue as normal.
*I have been getting more and more reports on success for Error 16 via 'xboxhdm' hotswapping.
Basically, build the 'xboxhdm' CD without an eeprom. Insert it into your PC and load to the first screen. Induce the Error 12 on the Xbox, unplug the IDE cable from the XBox HDD and plug the HDD into the PC. Then just rebuild the drive.

can i do it if i dont have it modded? or it doesnt show the white xbox logo on bootup...

Yeah, you got it! You need a program called Explorer360.

The guide and program can be found here...

You need 'Enigma Video Encoder' to switch between PAL\NTSC.

Get it from Xbins, but see if you can get hold of AID v4.01 or 4.02, that will install it for you!

It might be on the Slayers disc too...

Use my new 'Hotswap' Turorial to rebuild your drive, then softmod according to my guide! You'll be fine, don't panic!
