from my understanding xbmc doesnt run but games and xbox dash does the games that work are they backups or original if only originals work u may have messed up the soft mod try reinstalling that and see if it works

Boot the game used to do the softmod and gain FTP access. Fix the problem, reboot.

What bios are you using on the duo x2? is the bios set to boot from dvd in the dashes list?

but still, the problem i have is that i don't know what i'm doing wrong while burning the isos.

1. placing default.xbe, evox.ini, a dummy and /backup in a folder
2. creating iso with craxtion selecting the above folder
3. craxtion patches xbe file
4. recorder->burn image in nero
5. selecting the new iso
6. selecting lowest speed, finalize cd, disk at once/69
7. burning
8. xbox gives the same sound as when managing to read any other cd or dvd, only to crap its pants.
9. i crap my pants
10. doing 4-9 over again but this time selecting slayer autoinstaller iso in nero

it's a philips diskreader that has read almost every media i've put in it, except maybe some tdk cdr ones...

Have you tried Frosty's xbox rescue disc?

If you have the option finalize the disc showing up then you are not burning an image you are burning a data disc.
Use IMGBURN to burn the ISO image and try Quix instead of craxtion. IMGBURN is free and has never failed me.

thank's a lot everyone! and especially you ldotsfan who showed me to a package not yet tried but that actually worked!

or at least the box booted.
i couldn't format my new drive with the disc, it refused to open the xbpartitioner and a change in evox.ini made the disc useless.
but, however, it is not that hard to format the harddrive via ftp. and now the xbox runs as before!

hurray!


ps.
Chancer -> when burning an image in nero it gives you the option to check or uncheck the finalize disk box. at least if you're burning an foreign image. and i used imgburn, magiciso and nero when trying to burn all of the discs that are now useless except from throwing between friends on the beach.


and again, thanks to you all for brainstorming!
