Hi all, Firstly I must admit I am a noobie at softmodding my Xbox, I have the action replay and plinter cell, I followed all the instructions on herehttp://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/311710 I managed to put Soft mod installed deluxe 3.1 and the SID splinter cell pal file on my memory card. I then copied them files to my Xbox hdd, and then ran splinter cell, went to start game clicked on linux and then clicked again, and now I have had a black screen on by tv for 30mins and the green power light on my Xbox, and nothing is happening, can someone please advise me ?? Thank you very very much

The Action Replay memory card are known to have issues with the gamesaves. Try another memory card. Also if you have other gamesaves for Splinter Cell, you must delete them.

No, you can only ftp to the xbox after it's modded and the hdd has fatx file system which the pc can't read.

If you have a usb thumb drive, there is an easy usb mod you can do. That's how I got my box modded when I was a newbie.

Click on this tutorial. All you need is some electrical tape, the female end of a usb cable and a blade. The wire match up color for color.

A quick thought on this is also possible to convert the xbox contoller cable to become a xbox connection to female usb, and if so would this also work so i could use my usb memory stick ??

Sure it would work. Instead of splicing into the controller port wires, you would splice into the controller wires.

The xbox needs to format the pendrive. You should see and option to do it. Once it's finished you can load the gamesaves back on to the pen drive.
