Xbox V1.6 Softmod

I know that this topic has been discussed for 100x of times but after reading posts for 3 hours I am still confused. I've got Xbox v1.6 and would like to do softmod. I was advised that the best would be NDURE.
What do I need to do this? Is it enough to get AR and any of these 3 games? Can I do it without AR? Just with usb-xbox cable and usb flash drive?
I know that other versions work like that but I still get different information about v1.6
Any help is much appreciated.

Many thanks!

1. Ndure works with all known kernels - so 1.6 is covered.
2. AR <==> ( the combination of a usb-xbox adapter and compatible usb flash drive and xplorer360)
They are equivalent. Xplorer360 is the Windows program to actually copy the gamesaves onto the flash drive.
Pinned topic in the tutorial thread in this forum. The last one covers xplorer360.
3. Splinter Cell is the best choice among the 3 games as it is not version specific. For MA and 007AUF , you need the specific versions (earliest ones). Pinned topic in TSOP flash forum on the details.

I would get the official MS Mem card. I have had one for years and it always works.

Your other alternative is hot swapping. I don't recommend that unless it is the only solution.

there are many problems with ar. Not so much the dockin station but the mem card. They are bunch of crap and most of the time corrupt the files on it.

Many thanks to everyone. Just did softmod on my v1.6 using hotswap method!!!  smile.gif

Do an eeprom backup and ftp it to PC. If Kingroach Ndure was used, eeprom backup details is in my sig. Don't make the mistake of not doing eeprom backup for hotswap installation as I once did and paid the price later.
