Can't Run Xbox Games From Disc Or Hard Drive
« on: February 08, 2006, 09:58:00 PM »

Hello here is my issue I can't run any xbox games on my box its soft modded with 80g HD running unleashx.
When I go to my game tab an select a game from the HD, try an run a backed up disc, or an original xbox disc it goes to the loading screen an sits for a sec then reboots to the unleash dashboard. I can run all my apps, emus, an homebrew games an I can play dvds an cds so I am at a loss as to whats going on. So if anyone has had a similar problem any advice would be welcome or suggestions to to get me going in the right direction. I so far I have reinstalled all my C drive files an that didn't help so if you have any ideas they would be welcome. Thank You.

Looks like EEPROM failed. Try use ConfigMagic 1.6

What the hell does the EEProm have to do with running programs?

Yes, I found an easy way.

After 21312432 hours of google search and research

go to MS DASHBOARD -> parental settings -> it was EC(lowest)
change to M

and it works !
