Hey everyone i have a 4p3t rotary switch wired correctly for the power and i have checked there is no power leakage with it,
i have a custom 40way ide cable 25" long only 3" longer than stock xbox cable,
i get error 13, 99 out of 100 times. Why would this be? i have tried 3 different 10g stock xbox hdd's all been re-locked to this xbox and no luck, my 200g drive is a Seagate barracuda 7200rpm, is there a way i can get error 13 to disapear??

Kind Regards
HoZy

P.S-All help will be appreciated

pls has anyone got any ideas

Out of this whole forum is there no one with an idea which might fix this problem?

200 gig drive will boot fine
but any stock 10 gig drive WD or seagate come up with error 13.
Doesn't matter where we place them on the cable

Come on a whole forum of people and no ideas?

"thefilepirater" who's the fucking retard you dumb ass. Is this how you help people. Grow up!. So what you can cut and paste what error 13 is but you cant help fix it. GROW UP.

Now for the people with an IQ higher then "thefilepirater"

We know what error 13 is where asking how to fix it?
Most other people would on this FORUM would know who HOZY is and who i am so most problems to us dont exist ( we fix them easily) but this thing is pisssing us off.

This is a duel boot mod
there is a ribbon cable with 4 connectors MB,DVD,HDD1,HDD2
There is a switch wired up so only one HDD is powered at a time.

PROBLEM AGAIN:

The 200gig HDD boots fine SEAGATE( supposed to me the most compatible brand)
the 10 gig HDD comes up with error 13 ( 2 x WD and 2 x seagate all same prob)
pull the 200 gig of the cable the 10- gig bootsfine
We have tried at least 4 different stock HDD We have tried Different cables
We have tried leaving the 200gig on the cable and just pulling the molex off to make sure 100% there is no power going to it.
We have tried both drives on Cable select, master and many different combinations.

We have tried with the drives locked to the box unlocked one locked one not you name it we have tried it.

We got it to boot once then rebooted and back to error 13

People who respond with something more than a lame coment appreciated

Thankyou in advance

you cant boot with two hard drives of different manufacture.

i was tring to do this, and it was what i was told.
i have a wd 200 and 80gb, trying to get it to work, and i got nowhere.

so if you can, try two stock drives that are the same brand and model number and see if it works.

if not, i think it might be that the stock drive is stopping you from doing this

yeah tried 2 stock drives and both booted regardles of brand

ive tried a seagate 10 and a seagate 200 no luck

Will everyone stop being douchebags and just help the man?

I want to see this dual hdd box pan out... because I am interested in the same mod, though.... if these are the problems I am gonna get and the kind of responses I can expect... well than fuck that and fuck you.
