As a last ditch effort, you can hotswap it. Read up. It'll give you access to your xbox hard drive in your PC, and you can reset the files as needed. Or, if you have your eeprom, you can fix it6 easily with xboxhdm. More reading. I'm still curious exactly what happened to your UXE install...

Nope. Get it from the usual places.
UXE Complete.02.1 is current, I believe. Devz3ro made a minor adjustment. No renaming necessary. Need to hotswap now.

well if you can access your MS dashboard (the main screen that a stock xbox loads up to) then sure, you can put an exploited gamesave on it and run that...but i'm getting the feeling you can't get to that screen in order to transfer a save from the memory card onto the hard drive

edit: i just checked the link you put on (you're not supposed to link to files though....) but it says (in french) that you were supposed to rename xboxdash.xbe on your hard drive to something else, then put that xboxdash.xbe in (just the way it is). then you were supposed to rename the fonts folder on your xbox to f0nts and put the fonts folder on there as is....then you were supposed to put evoxdash.xbe and config.xml (i'm guessing evoxdash isn't actually evox...but no big deal) and then you were supposed to copy the things inside the E: folder onto your E drive in the xbox. i'm guessing that you didn't do this right.

you said your friend hacked it right? i'd give him a call and see if he used a gamesave exploit and ask him if you can borrow the game seeing as that would be the quickest and easiest way of solving your problem. if he didn't though, and nobody backed up the eeprom....you're gonna need to hotswap it

You guys avoided my question about a mod-chip... Would it work? (would it change the bios?)

sure...buy a mod chip if you want....it wouldn't magically make your xbox better though because currently you have a hard drive that doesn't have a dashboard to boot up to. a modchip would allow you to fix that problem with an evox bootdisc though.

i figured that me telling you to ask your friend about a gamesave exploit would lead you to believe that your xbox was probably fixable as is withouth a chip....whatever floats your boat though dude

well this is the softmod forum....so no, i really don't know much about the new line of chips and which is best and features and if there are any known bugs.....you should look at the modchip forums as they'd know much more.
