Hey!
I know its not the right place to post my problem, but I have nowhere else and I need help badly (if someone know how to help me).
I had an avalaunch dashboard on my xbox(softwiped) device (I have the phillips dvd drive and an 80 gb HDD that I formated and put in).
I had it running for many years and kept on updating games on to it. not long ago when I tryed to upgrade my avalaunch into the most new version v-0.49.3 (if I am not making a mistake). I copied fiels into the device using flashfxp software over FTP and when I restarded the device it didnt work and I got the no:13 error, sometimes its the no:14 to.
I started to search the net and found the AID(Auto Installer Delux v-4.52) thing that suppose to help you install allmost anything (dashboard among all) to your xbox using a DVD-R containing it.
I followed all the instructions and tryed to get it going but everytime I burn a DVD-R from the image I downloaded and insert it in my xbox, it does not boot from it(I used a TEAC media) and I keep getting the same error's over and over(NO:13 and 14) since the device is assuming there is no CD in the DVD-R drive, so its trying to start the corrapted avalaunce dash from the HDD.
I hope someone stell rememeber how to handle the first generation XBOX HDD crack and can give me an answer.
Note: I stell have the oreginal 10 gb HDD in hand but it does not have the oreginal M$ dash, it has the Evox dash and i dont know how to use it.
I am soory if my english is a bit choopy, it is my second language.
Thank you for your time

Most likely you will have to use XBOXHDM and rebuild the drive. You can remod it with a newer NKpatcher and dash at the same time using Kingroach Ndure. Do you have an EEPROM backup on your PC from when you first modded it?
Sometimes when you get the error message a coldboot with the game used will take it through to the softmod menu. Do you remember what exploit you used to mod your XBOX? Audio exploit? Easter Egg? Doubledash? UDE1/2? Game save with Ndure/SID? Hotswap with Kingroach?

A rebuild is your only option. Since you dont have the eeprom thats gonna make it a little harder (hotswap)
Download this and burn the iso to disc (dvd-r at 4x)
Get your XBOX open, remove the HDD from the tray and loosen the IDE cable so it will be easy to pull off. Unplug the IDE and power from the DVD drive (we want to force an error 12), unhook all HDD from your PC and have it right beside the XBOX and the disc you just burned in the dvd drive and set to boot from disc. Turn on the xbox, the second you see the error 12 unplug the IDE cable from the HDD and plug the one from your PC into it and boot the PC. Pick option 1 and hit enter. You will see some stuff scroll on the screen when it stops type xboxhd, once it goes to the next screen pick build XBOX HDD from scratch. It will format the drive and copy the virgin 5960 dash files to your C partition. Once done turn of your PC, plug the XBOX IDE cable back into the XBOX HDD and turn off the XBOX. It is now stock once again and will need to be remodded which can be done via Ndure during the rebuild with Kingroach or with a gamesave exploit after the rebuild
If you think the EEPROM is on the other drive what you can do is install Xplorer360 on your PC, set the jumper on the XBOX drive to slave unplug the dvd drive to force an error 12. Hot swap it (leave your PC hdd hooked up) and go in with Xplorer and copy off the EEPROM. You may also be able to use it to replace the dash but Ive never done that so I cant say for sure as to the method.

I'll have a video tut up later today or tommorow on how to hotswap and do a rebuild/kingroach mod, since this seems to be happening alot more. All the clock loop errors leads me to believe its alot of people who used the audio or Easter egg exploit to do it. Nice thing about NK (another wicked job by Rmenhal) is it makes clock loop a thing of the past and leaves you with a pseudo flashed xbox similar to PBL but more stable.

After the rebuild it will be stock (as if it was just bought) you will need to mod it again. The mods I suggest using offer either Evox or Unleashx as dash. I prefer Unleashx personaly- very similar to avalaunch but nicer in my opinion. Click on the youtube link in my sig to get an idea of Unleashx and modding (Ive got around 50 videos using it).
At this point I only reccomend doing a rebuild as a hotswap rebuild and Ndure mod is quite tricky and will be much easier after seeing a vid of it. Do you have a Memory card, Action Replay, and at least 1 of the following games Splinter Cell (original or platinum) 007:Agent Under Fire (original, supposedly some platinums work but I havent personaly tested it) or Mechassault (must be original, platinum and greatest hits will not work)? If you do then you can just gamesave mod it (very easy) after the rebuild otherwise the hotswap mod is the only option.

No worries Im just reencoding the video now to show you how to rebuild/mod your XBOX in 1 go. Give me maybe an hour and I'll have it uploaded along with all the software you will need. Just so you know it can be tedious getting the HDD unlocked but once youve gotten that part out of the way the rest is childs play (at least I think so)

I did what you told me to do and press the number "1" option and it did run a script, when it was done i pressed xboxhd and it got me to a screen that told me that my hdd is locked and that if i will press "yes" the software will disable many options, I pressed yes and got to the screen and saw the option you wanted me to do which is the "build a new xbox HD from scratch" but it was disabled and I could not run it and therefor could not complete the process.
