At this time, I would say you should softmod it from scratch using xboxhdm because of all the backing up restoring you did. You said "I deleted my C and E drives and restored them with a modified version using Krayzie's installer", how and what modified C and E from Kraizie's Installer? As far as I know there is Kraizie Uxe Installer and Kraizie Ndure Installer, both are gamesave softmodders not design for xboxhdm. I have not seen a Kraizie Ndure Installer for xboxhdm, so its not as easy to install it using xboxhdm eventhough its possible.

Are you locking and unlocking with the eeprom.bin for your xbox in xboxhdm? You have to, if you softmodding.

Here is what I would do:
Go here and get UXEDM-1.2.rar file by emailing the guy http://forums.xbox-s...howtopic=366428 I've tested this this softmod and its work great in xboxhdm, all it requires is you type softmod and then select 1 or 2, it does the rest. Follow the direction and copy the initrd.gz and the folder to build the right xboxhdm.

Next, make sure the C folder for xboxhdm has a stock(original unmodded) 5960 dashboard.

Make sure you got the eeprom.bin inside eeprom folder.

Then run the make-iso-win.bat file and burn ISO.

Unlock hd and rebuild C partition, then reboot and type in softmod. If you plan on upgrading to Kraizie's Ndure 1.1, I suggest you select 1 for softmod. Option 2 installs nkpatcher which activates shadowc.

Ok lockhd -a now and you should be able to get to evox at this point. I can give you pointers how to get Kraizie Ndude installer later if you want.

This information was most helpful. Thanks very much. To answer your question, I ran the Krayzie ndure autoinstaller for files to overwrite on the C and E drives. I was hoping this would help me run more games, but it didn't work - in fact, it ended up not showing any of my games at all.

What I'm trying to find now is that 5960 dashboard you mentioned. What package has that dashboard in it?

chances might be you need to set nkpatcher to 06 using the extras to let the games show up.

if your previous bios was a 06 one and now you have a 67 one and vice versa games will not show up. in my 1.1 installer there is an option in the extras feauture to set it. in my previous installers it asks before installing. but now that I am re reading your post I don't think you used my installer but kingroaches. there should be an option in there too to define your type of bios.

for basic information check my sig

I would delete e:\cache to see if it helps, does the original disc also not play? for your ftp problems look for ftp guides in the newbie forums.

copy your E format it and copy it back

I scoured the info on your sig page, but I can't really find anything about iso compatibility. I might just have a bad one... the Marvel vs Capcom 2 iso is rare anyways.

QUOTE(Crysalim @ Feb 26 2006, 11:11 PM)

I deleted the cache folder, and it didn't help in running the iso. I don't have the original disc, and this iso is meant for a CD-R, so it wouldn't burn on a DVD, and I have a Thompson drive so it wouldn't read it on cd-r.

Closed. If you can't immediately tell why, you really aren't welcome here.
