I have 2 questions about the Slayer's Util...

1) How do I return to the main Menu screen while i am in XBMP 2.1? It seems as if I have to RESET the XBOX whenever I enter an application such as this and BoxPlorer....

2) What is the IGR button combination for the S-type again? It seems to work for the regular controllers but not the S-type...

Thanks guys....

I bought XBOX and gave it to my chip installer to mod it (with homebrew, EvoX D.6). Without turning the console on he installed chip and gave it back. When I booted console XBOX reported Error 16. It didn't want zo boot anything else but EvoX CDRW. I figured something is wrong with HD so I used NewHDEvoX1.2 to format and install thing all over again. I guess HD formatted OK, copy also worked (?), but when pressinf "Fix Attributes" it reported Error 21. After rebooting it still gives Error 16.

I disabled mod chip and then it gave me Error 5.

I also took HD out and tried HD Preparer 1.3 on it, but it gives error: "Error writing drive at sector 0". Probabaly because HD is locked? I can't unlock this drive with hdunlock.exe because I don't have password for it. Is there any other way??

I also tried Slayer's Auto Installer and when I choose option"Rebuild Retail HD" formating goes well (no errors), it also copies all files to disk with short "Done" at the end, but when I reboot XBOX it's still Error 16  When I go to ConfigMagic menu and run "ConfigMagic v1.0 EEprom Setting" XBOX gives Error 21. Same error for options like "NTSC-PAL Video Mode switcher" and all others who need to be run from dashboard.

Any ideas what should I do?

tnx!

Just a word of thanks Slayer!   your install went without a hitch! New 20 gig drive (all I had laying around) and evox installed perfectly. Copied back my save games from the backup on my pc and all is great. Thanks. One quick question. Adding new apps: Can i just copy the mame-x files and the roms to the hd? If I can which drive and do I need to create a special folder?

Glad to hear you're happy!

You can copy whatever you want to your HD.  If you chose the REBUILD LARGE HD option then it placed all the apps under f:\apps.  All you need to do is create additional folders under Apps like this:  F:\Apps\MameX\  EvoX is already setup to auto-discover/sort all apps under the Apps folder provided the main executable file is called "default.xbe"

Enjoy!

Well, neither question is about my installer, they are both about specific functionalitly of the applications installed.  What did I say about me not supporting the individual tools?  You really need to read things carefully and think before you post.

Oh, hell, here you go:

1) In XBMP2, go to the very bottom of the main menu and you'll see 2 small rectangular buttons. The one on the left is reset the one on the right is power off.  Hmmmm..... simple, no?

2) Both Triggers and then "Back" & Black, all simultaneous.  Works for me!

Will be released a v2.1 that include XBMP 2.2?

Version 2.1 will include fixes for v2.0 and the latest apps available at that time, including the latest release of XBMP.  I will not release v2.1 only for XBMP2!

Has your xbox ever worked after you got it back modded?

Do you have a backup of your original files?

If you do, restore the backup and in the M$ Dashbaord go to System Imfo and let me know the values for K: and D:

1wolf1...Dude!!!  thank you so much.....Slayer's EvoX Auto-installer V2.0..is so Kick @ss!!!   I burned it and installed it this morning...everything when off as smooth as silk...i just wanted to take the time and thank you for your hard work and programing skills..   You are one of the greats of the Xbox scene...  (very happy)

Thank you for your post Bificus Beefy M.D  It makes me very happy to know that I've helped out.

I do have a request for all happy people out there that have come to realize how important this installer is:

PLEASE e-mail XanTium, who posts all the news on the main page of xbox-scene.com (just click on his name) and ask him to post news about this installer as well as a link back to this thread. I have seen countless posts with problems that would not exist if everyone would use my installer from the start. It will save eveyone a lot of grief to be aware of this tool.

Thank you all!

But I'd like to unlock retail HD somehow! Is there ANY way to obtain password for original XBOX HD besides brute force  - so I can unlock it and then format it and use your auto installer? Password generated with newly installed HD is not accepted by unlockx. tnx

Retail HD can only be unlocked in the original XBOX it came in and only if the EEPROM has not been touched.  Run ConfigMagic and unlock it.  If ConfigMagic fails to run, restore the original files from backup on that drive, install ConfigMagic just like any app, run it and unlock!

ConfigMagic won't boot with retail HD in XBOX, it gives Error 21.
When I use new 20 GB hard drive ConfigMagic boots ok - actually all things work fine.

I tried and disable chip (so XBOX is in "Virgin" state) but instead of booting normally it gives Error 5. I haven't touched EEprom, don't even know how to do that.

I'm now looking for solution how to unlock retail HD in PC without original password, because I have no clue how to do that in XBOX? Can I use hotswap in ConfigMagic? ... I run it from new HD and then swap it with retail one?

Got a suggestion for 2.1, slayer...include progpatcher to patch the original dash for progressive scan output.
