i want this product:
http://www.modchipstore.com/Xbox-Fully-Customized-Hard-Drive-200GB-160GB-120GB-16175.html
but it states that I need a modchip installed in order to activate the HD. Well, iif I just install SID on my xbox, will that make the HD work? If I can, then can I install evox from SID while waiting for the HD to come in the mail? Thanks in advance. _________________ I really need to get a signature...

first of all, ill do the 120gb for less than 150 dollars...
second of all, you cant just put the hard drive in there and hope it works. with a softmod, the hard drive has to be locked as the MS bios requires it. If you wanted a mod chip installed, i can do that also, but if you dont want to install a mod chip, you can send me your eeprom (if you dont know how to find it, ill explain it to you) and ill lock it to your eeprom so that it is 'turn-key' _________________ XCM Halo 2 blue case

i dont have xbox live... and i dont have ftp access... hrm... this is what i want to do:
1-Install SID4 + evox
2-Install chimp (HD cloner)
3-Use the chimp app to clone the stock HD onto a 80gig or 120gig
4-Install the large HD
Would that work? _________________ I really need to get a signature...

get xboxhdm
ftp
cd burner
ca5
transfer ur c , e , eeprom and that is it .. u can have everying u have on ur stock hdd on ur upgrade hdd.. its a very very easy step..
sid4 or nknave is same thing becuz he did it but if u get nknave disc iso then i suggest do nknave intstaller... and put UNLEASHX i recommend that as its more user friendly and more acceable.. evox is for more like experence softmoders... evox=lanburgini unlehsx=ferarri... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

well i am goin to just softmod for right now. Using AID. man, it sucks that i cant download it (on dialup it would take 4 days) so i had to send away for it.should be in the mail in the next week though.anyways, and one last question:
I got SID4 on memory card, and transfered it to my xbox, along with the 007 game save. I am going to install the that. but should i install a dashboard from SID or wait until AID comes in the mail? _________________ I really need to get a signature...

idk like i said i dotn dl apps and then install
but i would say yes just make it iso then burn it ...
BUT U STIL HAVE 2 DOWNLOAD IT SO JUST FTP ITS THE FASTEST WAY OF DOWNLOADING ANYITNG.. PERIOD..
so i suggest u do ftp... get flashfxp and cross over cable or non cross over
plug it 2 ur xbox then edit ur xbox ip match it 2 flash fxp and ur set... intent transfer between ur xbox apps and ur pc.. very very very easy! _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition
