Ok, here's some rules. Follow them or be banned. We'd rather a few decent members than a bunch of idiots. Im sure most agree. I'll be listing the rules as I think of them. If you have an idea for a rule... contact me.

DO NOT POST HERE!

So to start w/ the rules.

1. Do Not Post Here... incase you didn't get it the first time.

2. One genre of question per topic. If it's off subject... start anew.

3. Do a little research before posting. We're happy to help... but at least Google it.

4. Use the SEARCH before posting. Maybe your question is already answered.

5. DO NOT SPAM... we'll cut you. Literally.

6. We do not condone the piracy of games, nor do we support it. DO NOT SHARE GAMES! If you do... don't talk about it here.

~More to come. Once again, if you have a suggestion... Let me know. PM will be fine thankyou.

I installed Gentoox on my F:, it took up 4 gigs.. and it's a fully functional Linux box now... But i can still play games on it and do everything else. It's now just a menu item... "Linux" I select it and it boots up... It's awesome. I can ssh into my xbox and well, do what ever I want. Pretty cool if you ask me. It's free too.  Search Xbox Linux in google. Good stuff. BTW I was just running FireFox on my xbox and checking the forum.

LOL! NOS - quit telling people i fixed our box... its nasty duder. lol. j/k. If my previous post was asinine it's cuz the resolution on my xbox is only 800x600 and i couldn't see the second page of this thread. So you can disregard it you'd like.

Hmm... im not exactly sure... Speaking of of the top of my head.. It's trying ot connect to rndom ports... 38588 or something like that.  Make sure you using port 21 and s far as pasv mode goes... if it's on turn it off and if it's off turn it on. Also... what ftp program are you using. Got to, in Internet explorer, ftp://192.168.0.2:21     and go to fille login as and enter your stuff.... if you can connect then it's a problem w/ your ftp program... i recomment smart ftp. but evertime i reccomend a program or a soft mod .... I GET REAMED FOR BEING OUTDATED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! j/k. let me know how that goes.

Sorry about the sp. errors. Im doing this on my xbox.... the screen is a little blurry.

C'mon dude. No time is wasted... Im sure when you get your new NIC we'll be able to get you up and running. While NOS is right about getting mixed answers even to the most basic questions... It's entirely possible, with such a wide spectrum of ideas and solutions, that you'll find just what your looking for, even if it's not here. But WE ARE ALWAYS willing to give it a try.

This forum is just starting out... obviously... (15 members... 3-5 of which actually post heh) My goal, eventually, is to have this be a one-stop solutions for almost any Soft Mod / Xbox question. Noobish or not.

Once again, you guys are awesome..... keep it up. I'll try to post more... I read it everyday though. If that counts for anything.

Freaking Awesome!!! You guys are excellent.

Boost - excellent. Thanks... I think i'll try it out.

Boost - you should be a mod. Talk to me. You know your stuff.

LOL - Nah we just met. I fixed his Broken Xbox - actually he did. I just gave him the files he needed.

Anyway, not paying anyone. IM JUST THAT COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So get off my back... lol j/k

Anyway, thanks for joining duder.. I appreciate it - spread the word. If you need anything let us know.

Krayzies Auto Installer is Awesome! don't get me wrong. I like ltools though.. personal preference I guess, also I've always been able to fix it if something goes wrong... so alot of my advice will be twards that. I'll probably continue to use it mostly... But we're more than happy to try to help with any means of Soft Modding. As always, my first recomendation is to visit my online store But apart from that...

Any questions you have... let us know. It's why I made this site.

Hello Boys and Girls -

Yes!!!!  BACK UP EVERYTHING ALWAYS!!!! While Walmart will take anything back... even if you didn't buy it from them, Back up your Xbox info first thing. That way if something goes wrong... You can try again and just restore it. It's so much easier that way. While it is possible to fix your Xbox from a soft mod gone bad... It's better to not have to deal with it. If you need help or unsure about anything... ask us. It's what we do. We don't want you to break your Xbox anymore than you do. Though if it does happen... contact us. We'll figure it out. Also, If you don't want to deal with the Headache.... visit our STORE and we'll take care of you.

And as NOS--- so pointedly put it.... DO NOT PANIC! There's always a solution.

Hey dude,
   When it comes to soft mods I reccomend going with Ltools. It's an amazing utility which makes modding your xbox so incredibly easy. Compatible with PAL and NTSC Xbox consoles. Or if you really need a hand visit our Store at www.smdepot.net and we'll be happy to do it for you. Unfortunately I don't currently have a comprehensive tut. for Pal Xbox's, but it's in the works, like so many other things. Check out www.xbox-scene.com for tonz and tonz of tutorials about everything Xbox. Sorry for the delayed response btw.

Thanks Duder... that's what we like to hear. Peace to all and Good will tward men... lol. Yeah right. Anyway - If you guys need anything... let us know.
