1. What is 32x with reference to bios? I have never seen the two used together.
2. A bios is usually used for a tsop flash or a mod chip. A softmod usually exploits the msdash through font exploits. Suggest you head to the XBE exploits forum and read the pinned tutorials.
3. Attempt the hdd upgrade at a later stage when you have softmodded successfully. My sig has a linked thread on hdd upgrades.

Ah i get what you mean you need the emulator that supports 32x and flashing your bios on your xbox i would go for ind-bios as this is what i use and its has some nice feature's also works on xbox's 1.0 to 1.5

If you are using Krazie's or Kingroach's ndure installer all you should have to do is format the G drive with the 32k clusters but if you set it up to F takes the rest then format F

sorry my bad, i didnt mean 32x i meant 32k. basically from what i've read formatting a large harddisk with a 16k file system will lead to corruption. so i will need XBPartitioner with a bios that will let me use 32k file system. so can i actually upgrade my bios even tho i only have a softmod? does a replacement bios actually exist for me to do this?

sorry for confusion... oh and btw i have a 1.6 xbox

Ndure softmods come with nkpatcher - a kernel patcher. This is the softmod's equivalent of what you term a bios. In effect, the retail ms bios is patched with extra functions - one of which is LBA48 support for a bigger hdd so you won't have issue using xbpartitioner (XBP) to partition a bigger than 256Gb hdd with 32k clusters. Actually XBP 1.1 will automatically use the right cluster size based on the partition size.

If you flashing the Tsop then Ind-Bios 5003 will let you have any size HDD also supports custom partitions not sure what thoughts are though lol.
