Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Selayan on February 04, 2006, 05:58:27 PM Deos this have to be done on the same pc that you have the xdhm and all the other files which you downloaded? Or can you make the cd on one pc, then have the hard drive installed in another pc and just load the cd at start up and do the rest? Offcourse, following that you go in bios and set it to what you said?
Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: jebus989 on February 04, 2006, 06:07:42 PM Think about it, whichever pc you use isnt going to have xboxhdm on the harddisk so this won't matter. One disk any pc.
Also good to see people using the chatrrom and the forums :D [edit] any pc that can boot from CD-ROM at least (using this method) Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Selayan on February 05, 2006, 08:29:24 AM That's cool, I'm going to first see if the pc that the hard drive I want to use is fuctional. We have not used it in 3 years so no one minds that I take the hard drive out. Later on I'll add it to the xbox.

Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: TheRidges on November 13, 2007, 02:55:45 AM lol this is probably old but i just seen this tutorial online(youtube)
and the xbox's nickname is "The Ridges Finest" and thats definitely me i have yet to see anybody else ever with that nick name and i have been on the xbox mod scene for a while now.....just wondering if u had picked up that installer from xbins or another source... Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Kyla666 (zzk2001) on November 13, 2007, 04:22:20 AM No it's my friends Xbox and he named his Xbox The Ridges Finest
he uses that name a lot Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Killakia on January 17, 2008, 12:47:30 PM With soft moding does it really matter what type of drive I get. As long as its on the posted list? I was reading some of the comments and they were talking about chips and only getting half the storage.
Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Snipes101 on January 17, 2008, 05:36:26 PM Um sure, you can really get any HDD and it should work, but if your talk about mod chips im sorry idk that
Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: GamezR2EZ on January 17, 2008, 06:07:08 PM truthfully most of the drives that "dont work" its only cause they cant be locked, and thus if you have a modchip ANY drive should work, because yo ucan boot into an unlocked HDD
but if yo uget one of the recommended list youre safe from every angle, with any modchip Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: z4ch_d1zzl3 on March 01, 2008, 05:16:51 PM i get problems right from the start .... im trying to make the disk and i click on make iso win bat and it just disappears and dont make it... what do i do?
Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Longshark on May 26, 2008, 05:19:46 AM Hello Iam new Here I Wanted To Know if I can Install a New IDE Lockable Harddrive on Xbox or SoftModded Xbox with a Laptop I have 3 Laptops

Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: GamezR2EZ on May 26, 2008, 08:29:02 AM the problem with the laptop is the hdd cant be locked
also it would be harder to veiw the contents of the drive (if its even possible) IF it can work, the hardrive in your laptop would have to be IDE Channel 1 MASTER and your CD\DVD drive would have to be secondary Master and you would have to use a converter like this (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.727) but this is a hard thing to make fit in a laptop, and that doesnt garuntee it will work but thats what would have to happen (PS zzk doesnt know anything :P Jk ;) ) Title: Re: How to Make New Xbox HDD without installing Softmod Post by: Longshark on May 26, 2008, 07:19:58 PM First of all thanks for Replying to my Q-Question LOLLOL :) Whats a IDE Channel 1 MASTER ??? and a CD/DVD drive I have one:) and What do you mean it has to be Secondary Master ???
