Hi everyone !!

I was just wondering if i could install a new hd on my xbox without the original one and with a Xenuim Ice modchip.

Is it Possible ?

Thanks

yes most bios,s now will let you use any hard drive , if you want to go on live tho , the hard drive needs to be lockable(i think most are nowadays) , then all you would need is an autoinstaller disc of some kind , or you could make your own

I dont want to go on xbox-Live....

(im a noob in modchips)
So if you please would answer these questions....i would aprriciate.

Would it boot on an other xbox's hd ?

Would it boot on a cd without any hd ?

This modchip would allow me to boot my xbox with a unlocked hard drive ??

Does Modchips are pre-flashed or are they blank ??

If blank could i flash it without any hard drive in my xbox ?

thanks

Most chips are preflashed with a legal bios.  You can only run all the neat developer software on a hacked bios (ms code integrated= not legal).

You never need to do anything with locking unlocking your drive unless you are swapping.  So booting into a unlocked bios is pointless, but the answer is yes, you can boot to an unlocked hdd with most chips.  As far as booting without a hdd in, I think you can with an x3, but your options are very limited.  You have no OS to run at that point, hence nothing to do.  I'm not sure if you can boot straight to a disc by bypassing the hdd if thats what you mean.  

Also, try checking your grammar before you send, unless you're a foreigner...then I understand.
