hi, everyone,
sorry for repost here! i need help.
i got my xbox today from gamestop, and managed to softmod it, i have read lots of tutorials, and try to figure out every details in tutorials, but i still had lots of trouble to finish it, even now.
i have a softmod xbox borrowed from friend, it runs unleashx 0.38, i use it for convey the gamesave for softmod.
my first xbox comes from gamestop, it is k:5101,D:4920, then i downloaded SID(softmod installer deluxe) 3 to pc, ftp the installer(splinter cell) to softmod xbox, then save them to ms memory unit, then took it to the unmodded xbox, copy to hd, boot the orignal game to initial the unleashx v0.37,(i spent almost 6 hours to here, there are some experience could be shared), then backup is the first job as the tutorials keep mention(luckily i did it ), i sucessed in ftp into it, and fetch all files in c: and e: to my pc, and even sucessed in install softmod, but when it come to install the evox or unleashx dashboard, it not works, it show up error messages, seems cant unzip or read or write the related files, anyway, i stop by it just before the final install of dashboard, when i reboot, it appear error 13, it says have to call the customer service, but since i know there is a way to restore my ms backup, so i boot by splinter cell, enter the unleash, and restore my backup. i doubt why it just stop at the final stage, maybe the hd has prob, the model is produced by 2003.7., so i went gamestop change for another one, it is K:5838,D:5960, produced in 2005.02.
the same prob. happen to new machine, i even try SID 4(SID.4.0.NKnave.Edition),SlaYers_EvoX_Auto-Installer_v2.6_FINAL without luck, all stop at the install the dashboard.
i doubt if something troubles happen in process of pc->softmodded xbox->ms memory unit-> xbox, so i bought a AR with memory unit from bestbuy, unfortunately the momery unit seems clash while i use it for memory unit direct, after that, it can't be recognized by pc.
i hope someone come to help with it, it took all my weekend but in vain.
how should i do next step.........
what am i probably wrong during the install?
by the way, there are some points i haven't read from tutorial
1. some ftp program use anonymous as default even you do input the username and password, as it, you can't write into the xbox hd, the problem annoyed my almost one hour.
2. for a newbie, it is hard to add the installer into the right folder of xbox hd. i made lots of try, and i don't know how does the gamesave looks like, and copy them correctly in first place.
expect for help and thanks.
