An EEPROM (E²PROM, E2PROM), or Electrically-Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory, is a non-volatile storage chip used in computers and other devices. Unlike an EPROM, an EEPROM can be programmed and erased multiple times electrically.
In our case, it's basically the bios of your xbox that M$ put on so that in the event of a flash issue, you have the ability to put the box back to it's original configuration.
I believe that config magic might be the tool to back up with on a softmod. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th
