you need to create an .xiso then burn that to a CD-RW. I have never used slayers but im guessing it dont come already as an xiso. It is easy enough to make your own boot disc instead of downloading slayers.

[ChuckBales]

I erased the old slayers cd, redid double checking i had all the correct options checked off and it worked, im now looking at the slayers menu, stock hard drive installed

I think its a crossover cable (the colored wires in the ends are jumbled around) connected from laptop to xbox, i boot up slayers and the ip is 0.0.0.0. I did the "Save BIOS/EEPROM" option, am I supposed to be able to FTP to it while the Slayers menu is up, or do I need to install EvoX from the disc first. I went to that option but it said to make sure I have a backup of the C:, which I cant get yet....

If you are using crossover cable you might need to edit the Evox.ini file before burning it to CDRW since I beleive its set to DHCP...So use Quix to extract the Slayers's ISO and then inside the folder extracted there is a file called Evox.INI, open it with notepad and scroll down to the network section, should look something like this:

[Network]
SetupNetwork   = Yes
StaticIP   = No
Ip      = 192.168.0.10
Subnetmask   = 255.255.255.0
Defaultgateway   = 192.168.0.1
DNS1      = 0.0.0.0
DNS2      = 0.0.0.0
SetupDelay   = 0
SkipIfNoLink   = No

Where it says "StaticIP" make sure it says Yes and make sure your computer's IP matches the xbo's IP. So if your xbox is 192.168.0.10 then make sure Laptops IP 192.168.0.11.

Then create another ISO file of the edited Slayers and reburn it.

I set both the laptop and evox.ini ip to 192.168.1.200, the gateway to 255.255.255.0, booted with the cd, windows told me there was a IP conflict with another machine on the network.  

In FlashFXP i put the 192.168.1.200 in for the server/url box? And is the password/user both "xbox"? I thought i read that somewhere

[ModdingManiac]

No..Last digits need to be different so just make your laptop 192.168.1.201 or something other then .200

Yes server/url is IP number of the xbox..Username and password are "xbox" and leave the default port to 21

[ChuckBales]

Thank you very much, Im able to FTP in now, backing up everything now.

So once I get the C: backup, I dont need the retail hd anymore and could pop the new hd in, Slayer it, etc?

[ModdingManiac]

Yes...Put the Stock hard drive on a safe place..Sitck the new big hard drive and bot with slayers and choose the option to rebuild new large hard drive.

[ChuckBales]

I got the new HD, i went to FTP to it but no connection could be made, so I went to the Network settings in Slayers EvoX and Static IP is set to NO again, which I had to change to Yes in order to FTP via crossover. When I change it to Yes it automatcially changes back to No.

Sorry Im asking so many questions about this.

[ChuckBales]

When choosing Full Install/Rebuild Large HD, should I choose Standard C or Stealth F?

[ChuckBales]

I have the X2 4891.06 BIOS, i went with C anyways, well see how it goes.

Ahh, i didnt notice that the settins menu extended down *smacks forehead*

Everytthing with the new hd seems to work, however I still have the problem when using the Eject button to power on.  It turns on for half a second then shuts down then reboots with the chip on to EvoX.  Could BT or d0 be causing this? The d0 looks very good and was soldered professionaly this morning.


Also, there is stuff in the TDATA and UDATA folders on my new hd, do I copy over these with the backups I made to get my gamesaves back?

[ChuckBales]

I got the gamesaves back to the xbox, working fine, still have the problem with the eject button, cant get to the MS dash w/o going through EvoX

[ChuckBales]

Ive been reading up and it appears that if the bottom d0 is damaged than the xbox cant boot with the chip off, which is exactly my problem. I just dont know how to fix the bottom d0, would I solder a connecting wire to the traces on either side of the point?

[otherguy]

to repair a broken trace, you'll need to solder in a wire that connects the points/traces around the area which is damaged.

so in short, yes
