Hi, I really can't remember what do I have to do with the following:
I have a softmodded Xbox with "Frosty's Dual-Boot VGA Softmod v1.0" and now I want to go back to AID 4.3 because its newer and very complete.
The thing is, I can't remember what do I have to do in order to install AID and don't fk up my xbox (because it's softmodded).
Any help?

If your not running a virtual C you can just pop in AID and do a soft mod one click install.

The problem is that I think that I am using a Virtual C:
Disclaimer: I take absolutely no responsibility for what may result from
the usage of this softmod. By using this softmod, you are
agreeing to be held accountable for what may result from the
usage of this softmod. Use at your own risk.
NOTE: This softmod is intended ONLY for v1.0-v1.5 NTSC XBOX consoles!
If you have a PAL XBOX console, you will need to use a NTSC/PAL
switching utility to change your PAL XBOX to an NTSC version
before you can use this softmod. (Enigmah PAL-NTSC Switcher can do this)
NOTE 2: This is a softmod, not a BIOS. This softmod requires a RETAIL XBOX
BIOS to run, it will NOT run with any hacked BIOSes or Modchips.
Known Bugs
----------
- Not compatible with PAL XBOX consoles (VGA cannot be used on PAL consoles)
- Not compatible with v1.6/Xcalibur XBOX consoles
- Not compatible with 3944 BIOS consoles (Must be running Microsoft 4034 or higher)
- Not compatible with Modchips (Unless the chip is flashed with a retail BIOS)
Features
--------
- Dual-Boot Normal/VGA (Power Button = Normal Video, Eject Button = VGA)
- 100% FULL VGA SUPPORT! ALL GAMES/APPLICATIONS ARE 100% COMPATIBLE!
- Force480p (VGA mode only, forces 480i games to run at 480p)
- ForceGPUReset (VGA mode only, fixes all 'green screen' games)
- Supports Conexant Encoders
- Supports Focus Encoders
- F & G Drive Support (LBA48)
- Custom Partition Support (Supports up to 750GB HDDs w/XBpartitioner)
- IGR Support (In-Game-Reset, done by L+R+BACK+BLACK or L+R+BACK+START)
- ShadowC Drive (Protects softmod from being damaged)
- VirtualCDROM (Allows mounting of ISOs with DriveImage Utilities)
- NO VirtualEEPROM (Direct writing of EEPROM, no more HDTV enabling issues!)
- EvolutionX +3935 (Main Dashboard)
- Microsoft Dashboard 5960
- XBOX Media Center (T3CH Release)
- DVD-X2 DVD Player (Region-Free DVD Player)
- DVD2XBOX (File Manager)
Installation
------------
NOTE: If you currently have another type of softmod installed, you can use
'Frosty's XBOX Rescue Disc' to gain access to the REAL 'C' drive, which
is required to install new softmods.
1. Aquire FTP access to your XBOX HDD (Can be done by many exploits, I recommend Splinter Cell)
2. Delete all current files in your 'C' and 'E' drives (They must be 100% empty)
3. Transfer all files in the 'C' folder of this package to the 'C' drive on your XBOX
4. Transfer all files in the 'E' folder of this package to the 'E' drive on your XBOX
5. Power off your XBOX once all files have been transferred
6. Now you can power your XBOX in 2 ways:
- Power Button (Normal video output, including HDTV)
- Eject Button (VGA video output)
NOTE: Be sure to enable the HDTV options your VGA monitor supports in the Microsoft Dashboard.
Other Notes
-----------
- XBOX Games need to be placed in either the 'F:\Games' directory or the 'G:\Games' directory
- Emulators need to be placed in either the 'F:\Emulators' directory or the 'G:\Emulators' directory
- If you update XBMC, you will need to rename the 'default.xbe' file to 'xbmc.xbe'
- For partitioning large HDDs, use XBpartitioner. (available at the 'usual places')

Ok you are running a V C so pop in aid and in the soft mod section there is the option to unmount the virtuel C drive then just do the soft mod un-install and you can use SID5 to re-soft mod the xbox.

I'm at about the same point as ochentay above.. I've undone my old softmod as it wasn't loading the modded dash like it used to. Anyway, I unmounted the Virtual C and restored the backup but now I can't get the exploit to copy to the HDD using Action Replay. I'm only getting a Delete option and no Copy when I try to move it from the mem card to the HDD.. I think I remember having this same issue 2 years ago when I did it the first time but cannot recall how I solved the problem. I've got the right xbox dash version - 1.00.5960.01 but don't get Copy in my options when I try to move the file. I'm sure the solution is simple but have searched and am either missing it or.. Please help. Thanks.
I'm using Splinter Cell, the same one that worked for me last time and would like to put the latest SID on a factory HDD.

You know that when you have the game save up ready to copy, you have to press right first, then you'll be able to select copy. If you don't press right, you only get the option to delete.

I got it to copy over but now the Linux exploit isn't showing up in the Splinter Cell Checkpoint menu..going to do the AR mem card again and see if that works.
Thanks again for your help.
