  I have read, and followed the tutorials to a T, as far as burning ISO's in Nero, but it won't work whatever I do.  Would now be a good time to try the DVD 'pot tweak'?  I'm pretty sure my Executer2 Lite is working, cos the normal games play fine, and it says Executer at the bottom of the screen on boot up, but when I put in the Slayer iso disk, it goes to the error every time.  I plan on trying different media as well, but it'll be a couple 'o days till I can hit the store.  Thanks!

Hello,

I just installed a new 120 Gig HD using Slayer's CD tool. All worked well, except that the F drive is reporting only 25 gig of available space. There should over 100 gig available.

I have tryed formating the partition manually using the RAW command from a FTP session, but I keep getting only 25 Gig available.

What must I do to get the entire amount of drive space to be usable?

Drive was brand new out of the box when I put it in.

Thanks

Hi. I installed off of the Slayer CD and it got EvoX installed and everything. However, pretty much all of the options cause the Xbox to restart and go back to EvoX main screen. I mean, it plays my games fine because it seems to be autoloading them, but can anyone help me diagnose this problem? I tried toying around with evox.ini to make sure it was pointing to the right places, but it didn't seem to help (or harm).

Oh, I have an Executor2 Lite.

BIOS Version: Unknown
Kernel Version: 1.00.4973.01
Xbox Hardware Info: 0..003

Thanks a lot for your help!

I was able to do a full intall of a new HD without FTP, of course I didn't have any game saves, slayer's package works fine (thanks Slayer) the only thing I had a problem with was the original MSdashboard, I got one from a very good source (torbotek) I created an extra folder, also added FCE for NES, and MAME, wow I feel like I am 10 years old again. A round of applause for all the ppl that has made all this possible.

PEACE!

Two Question i want to ask:

1. If i install a new HD, will the Slayer ISO do everthing for me. i.e. format the HD, install all        necesarry software.

2. How can i update/install new software.

pico,

Let me guess, you got a Maxtor, right? Well for some dumb reason, Maxtor's ship from the factory with a size limitation jumper set. Remove the jumper and properly set the drive as the Master and reformat and you will get your space!!

Stupid Maxtors. That's why I can't stand them. Western Digital all the way!

hello slayer, i have a quick couple of questions for you:)

i cannot boot to my ms dash.  i get error21 and flashing red/green led.  i hear it has something to do with my evox.ini.  is there anyway to edit the .ini, make another slayer iso with that .ini, and put it in my machine and let it redo my hdd?  i do not have an ftp setup with my box, and (DOH!) i didnt back up my drive prior to installation.

if i unplug my box, or the power goes out, and the clock is reset, how will i adjust the time so my box will work, if i cant get into my ms dash?  am i fuxored?

thanks for everyones help on this,

rusty

[rustyself]

ok, i think ive narrowed it down to the msxboxdash file on the slayer disc image being the wrong version for my box.

now, heres the question:  i have 2 or three different ms dash versions.  can i replace the msxdash file on the slayer disc to one of those, reinstall the slayer disc, and trial and error it till i get the correct version?

[SlaYer]

I have identified the "Error 21" message people have been getting.

It is due to the version of dashboard included with my installer and the kernel version of some user's xbox (embedded in their EEPROM)

There are 5 kernel versions for the xbox 1.0 : 3944, 4034, 4036, 4039 and 4627

For reference the v1.1 xbox has kernel versions 4817 or 4972

My installer comes with the MS Dashboard for Version 4036 because it seems to be the most popular and works with most consoles.  Not only do I not have access to ALL versions but creating an installer with so many options would confuse the heck out of everyone.

I encountered this problem while changing the EEPROM on an xbox and noticed the M$ Dashboard did not work after the update.

If you experience Error 21 after rebuilding your HD with the Auto-Installer, you should try to get another version of the M$ dashboard and overwrite the one in the (C:) drive on your XBOX.   (there are plenty of tutorials on evox and FTP!)

If someone has ALL the dashboards it would be nice if they could RAR them up and post them on Newsgroups.  I would then include them in a folder on the next release of my Auto-Installer so that you can quickly recover.  Please do not upload ALL the files in the (C:) drive, just the M$ dashboard labeled correctly.

I cannot stress this enough: ALWAYS MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL XBOX HD BEFORE CHANGING ANYTHING!!!
