Error 21 Xbox
« on: July 25, 2005, 05:23:00 PM »

ok i baught this xbox off a friend for 20 bux. he said he failed on a softmod attempt. it gives me error 21 but it can still read games.
now for my options... i have a modded xbox with an x3 chip. is there any way to hotswap using that?
also can i load the exploit off a memory card?
i dont want to hotswap using a pc as i know i will mess up.

still boots games, try letting a LIVE enabled game upgrade your dash.

Use your chip in that box to get the eeprom.

Read my hotswapping faqs.

well updating the dash didnt work. everytime i tried to go on live it said cannot connect and to start trouble shooter. when i did that my xbox froze. i looked at ur hotswapping faqs and i didnt see anything about using another modded xbox. can u explain to me how i would go about doing this. if i can find it out ill just hotswap using my pc.

Burn Evox to a cd, and use the modded xbox to boot it, then proceed to hotswap to it.

although Xboxhdm is much easier to hotswap into.

If the guy that sold you the box screwed up a softmod, maybe he left a 007/MA/SC gamesave on the drive... try asking and see if you can get in through the gamesave.

If you can boot an orginal, try booting a LIVE enabled game, and updating your dash.

If you have no other options, then read my hotswapping faqs.

yea i tried loading mechassault, old sports games and unreal championship. everytime it said it ouldnt find a connection and it said to run troubleshooter. when i went to that my xbox froze.... i guess hotswapping is my only choice... is there anyway to load the exploit off my memory card? not to actually install the softmod, just get ftp acess

you must lock that drive with the EEPROM of the xbox it is going into, the drive you locked with slayers will only work in your xbox now, you need to unlock it, and lock it with the correct eeprom.
