I had used softmod installer deluxe to softmod my xbox a couple of months ago. i installed evox and everything was going well. this morning i decide i want to patch my ms 5960, but it gives me an error.
so, i decide that im going to delete my old sotmod installer and put on a new one. so i put the new one on my pro action replay.
i delete the old one.
i restart the xbox with splinter cell in the tray.
i go to do the whole process over.
error 21.
if i boot without a game in and the drive open
error 21
if i boot without a game and the drive closed
error 21
it will boot up games fine so long as it doesnt have to go to the dash.
am i f-ed?
i hope not, but with my luck, i am.
-thanks, and someone please help.

better burn it to a dvdr and burn it with dvd decryptor
i keep getting an error when it gets to about 99%.
im trying nero now, and i dunno how it will turn out.
regardless, i tried updating with the 1 gb dummy file before and burning via dvd decrypter 3.5.4.0
this really sucks. _________________ "The condition of man...is a condition of war of everyone against everyone."

Whats the Error code you get on the screen? Any why were you trying to do a live update on a modded xbox, you might have to do a hotswap now. _________________
