this is turning into a conversation. if you use msn then talk to me on that.
[email protected]basically, ude modifies the dashboard, you cannot access the ms dash after ude unless you edit it to look for the new fonts that ude uses. ldots installer does this for you, but because you are then using an edited ms dash, xbox live will know this if you try to connect through xbox live and you will get banned for life. No way of avoiding it. EVER
However if you set up your xbox live options before you install ude, then you can easily access xbox live through a retail game. it does this by having a dual boot procedure, which is where if you boot with a retail game in the drive then the exploit is not activated, meaning you can put a normal game in your xbox, load it up and access Xbox Live from the retail game. Normally when you boot up your xbox then the first thing it attempts to load is the default.xbe on the disc in the drive, meaning if you have a game in then that loads instead of the exploit. Allowing you
safe access from within the game.. This of course does not apply to backups or if you load up your xbox
then put the game in.
At the moment if you do the method i just said by booting with a retail game, then MS will not know that you have an exploit on and you are safe. They have not started scanning peoples hard drives
yet. Meaning they may do a surpries scan on you when you are not expecting it and could find you out. So for the time being you are in fact safe. If you are nervous then just uninstall and reinstall afterwards, it can be done in minutes, however this may get on your nerves so you might just live with the retail boot method.
IMPORTANT If your dash gets updates after the install, then you will lose the UDE and will have to reinstall, i don't know the consequences of losing the UDE by updating and i am unsure of what will happen, which is why it is important that you make sure you have the latest version of the MS dash on your system before installing. This is very important!!!!! And don't load the MS dash trying to get onto LIVE, that's just ignorant.
Hope that helps, if you have any other questions then IM me.
