There is no special MS disc that will unlock the drive.

there is a disk that will reset your drive but like i said very very rare

Well, if you get your pretty little hands on one, let me know, eh? I'd like a copy.

Does any other member(s) here work for WD or seagate that can point us in the right direction?

?

im sure i read somewhere thats its possible to unlock it without the original motherboard, i heard that the hdd code was made up of several things like the serial number etc.. maybe u might wanna look this up, if im then oh well

Anything is worth a try, but I would assume that this would be encrypted somehow..........

My old mobo is ruined and so i transfered my 120gig hdd to another xbox only to get eror code 6 (locked hdd). I cant boot up because of this and i cant get the lock code from the other xbox mobo because the lpc points or whatever are ruined. So i wanted to know if there was ANY WAY AT ALL to unlock hdd. Can i do it manually to the hdd? Format the hdd? i just need to do it without the code. And i was wondering weather the lock code is on the hdd or on a computer chip on the hdd. And if i desoldered my bios from the old mobo and put it in the new one would it work?
thanks ahead of time i dont want to have to buy a new 120gb hdd

You might want to boot with the evox.newHD cd, format it. if that doesnt work, reflash your modchip bios with the mew evox d6 one

just tried Evox D6 Bios didnt work. Do you really think formating it will fix it? and whats evox.newHDDcd?

Upgrading the BIOS won't help. A locked drive is a locked drive, without the code to unlock on boot, the drive won't work.

The only way you will be able to unlock it is if you used ConfigMagic to lock the drive. As far as I know, ConfigMagic locks the drive with a generic password (Something like T E A M A S S E M B L Y, not totally sure) which you would be able to feed into a computer utility to unlock the drive (Do as search on this, no one really uses this method any more because of Config Magic).

If you manually locked it, the only way to unlock again is if you know the code. If you do know the code, you should know how to lock and unlock manually as you will have already done it once. If you don't know the code, and didn't lock the drive with ConfigMagic, then it's time to throw the drive in the bin, put you hand in your pocket and start a fresh.

I used config magic final to lock my drive, so dose this mean that if i boot HDDUNLOCK.EXE in dos and enter T E A M A S S E M B L Y or something like that as the hdd password i can unlock it?

EDIT: And if its garbage if i cant unlock it, can i format it for my computer instead of just throwing it away? Thanks ahead of time.

You don't seem to understand that if the drive is locked it's useless, it won't work in any other Xbox or PC so you really need to find a way to unlock it.

BCfosheezy · « **Reply #25 on:** August 17, 2003, 03:35:00 PM »

You have to do the swap like they say and use the master password of TEAMASSEMBLY to unlock it..... or you have to unsolder your eeprom from your dead mobo and solder it on a working mobo and then your drive will unlock.

NOTE: DO NOT CONFUSE EEPROM WITH TSOP <- bios is stored on tsop and so your tsop has nothing to do with locking or unlocking your hdd.

If you want, I will do it for you if you are willing to ship to Illinois and it will cost a little bit. Otherwise I will buy the dead mobo and your 120 gig for 60 dollars.

spgurley · « **Reply #26 on:** August 17, 2003, 03:56:00 PM »

how do i unlock it with the master passwork of TEAMASSEMBLY? Do i do it manually in dos or what? Do i run the HDDUNLOCK.exe in dose and enter TEAMASSEMBLY as the password? If that is the master password for hdd's locked with config magic, then i can fix it because i used configmagic final to lock it. but if there is NO POSSIBLE WAY of fixing it after trying EVERYTHING, then i might ship them to you to have you switch the eeprom's get back to you later c ay
