hey there all u tech-guys i really need yourl help. realy. im getting an error 13 on my xbox when it boots up. this happened when i tried to removed the softmod on my xbox. i have tried hotswapping but i keep failling so far.. so far i got the pc to read the hdd but explorer360 doesn't so now im out of luck i think. so i wish someone wud help me out please.. i think its still have the softmod on it..
1. Open the case unplug the power to the xbox's dvdrom drive.
2. Turn the xbox on and as soon as the power turns red.
3. Unplug the ide cable to the xbox hard drive.
4. Plug the PC's ide cable into the xbox hard drive.
5. The xbox hard drive will be unlocked.
When is the drive unlocked?
The XboxHD DOES NOT unlock when your xbox boots into an error 6 or 7. The drive is usually unlocked for a short period on Xbox Errors 11, 12, 13, 16, & error 21, but Errors 11 & 12 are the preferable errors to do the hotswap. It is also unlocked inside the m$ dash, and also during gameplay. You need to turn them on at the same time. Hit the pause key before it detects the drives. Connect the pc's ide cable to the xbox hd. Then hit the space bar.
yes i did that already, i have made the bootable iso with XboxHDM. the pc detects the xbox hdd but when i boot the cd it tells me no drive found and then asks to reboot....and now im getting error 16 with a game in the dvddrive..hey u sound like u know alot about dat, so i wondering if u wud b able to link me at dangerfield_1895@hotmail.com so u cud gimme a step by step process..thankx
