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?

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 Cheesy

[edit] any pc that can boot from CD-ROM at least (using this method)

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.

Yes there Are Some versions of the platinum Hits of splinter cell that will work BUT.. that info was Not Knowen till After i made this =) i am sure i'll update it On what all versions Work

As for Trying a platinum Hit splinter cell for our SoftMod i would Not, As Some of the Versions Will Work BUT after the Install the Screen will go All wavey on you =( So Best to look up What Versions work

Luckly you Had a version that worked =)
