I'm about to use this on my second xbox , and I had a question.

On my first box I had your ndure3 release, and after modifying a file for an n64 emulator, I was unable to get back into the unleashx dash.  Even after doing 2 hotswaps, fresh installing, and successfully having ndure install, I still couldn't get unleashx to start.  (though I could get into the M$ dash np, with booting on the eject button)

The UnleashX Logo would just flash over and over, no matter what. (this being the reason why I'm doing the second box.)

To the question:  If I end up encountering the same problems on this box with the 3.1 release; what could be causing this, and what can I do to fix it?

Can somebody explain to me how the LED.BIN file works. All i want is the led to be always green. But when i use the standard install option its always orange.

create a 1 byte file with a hex editor

CODE

ORANGE      FF    
RED         F0  
GREEN       0F    
OFF         00

fresh C drive files from slayers disk to shadowc..

I have the same problem and downloading Slayers disk, and I just wonder, what is Slayers disk? Is it a new copy of MS dash?
I've a mistake not updating MS dash before softmodding, thats, probably, why I have this error 21.
I'm waiting for this disk and I'll try to replace C:\, but if I fail do I need to re-softmod again?

Thanks kingroach.  Ne1 know why when I try to run xbox live it just returns me to the main menu.  Do I need to choose one of the 2 xbox live options from the installer.  Thx

I have used NDURE 3.1 and XboxHDM on 3 different Xboxes.  I copy the "C" and"E" folders that NDURE creates into the "C" and "E" folder in XboxHDM - no other files.  All works well, except for the following (same for all 3 boxes):

1) When I look at drive "C" (via FTP or local filemanager) there are NO files and I cannot copy any files to "C".

2) In XBMC, the changes to the screen settings (widescreen/normal, 480P/720P/1080i) do not "stick" when the XBox is restarted.

3) I cannot "boot" into the MS dash.

Any help for any or all of the above?

Also, I do not use XBL for these XBoxes at all, so I do not need any "protection" for this.

Thanks

easy fix
the shadowc is write protected (bug in xboxHDM)
add any file named E:\NKP11\shadowC_off.bin
reboot then FTP the  C:\shadowc\shadowc.img to your PC and check it's attributes, uncheck read only if set,
FTP it back...
delete the shadowC_off.bin
reboot and add MS dash the files to the C:\

add any file E:\NKP11\eeprom_off.bin
leave it or update the eeprom.bin file after setting the HD settings in the MS dash

I have no idea how to get this NKPatcher to work. I'm trying to get it to run 480i ONLY so I can use my component cables. I saw someone else earlier in the thread say they fixed the problem by creating a video.bin file, but I don't know what to put in the file, and if it can be with a text editor or a hex editor only.

I went in and edited the config and config_runtime files and commented out the force progressive option. Then I ran make_runtime, then I ran make_nkp11. What am I supposed to do now?

Can I just make a video.bin file and put something in there to make it force to go 480i?

[xman954]

text "0" or hex "00"
but the MS dash must be set first to 480i only (using E:\NKP11\eeprom_off.bin)

well i have the following problem: i been working with uxe then updated to ndure 3.0 but someone deactivate ndure and no game for activate again so now i will update to 3.1 by hotswap, do you think that ndure will work again?, thanks

Kingroach Ndure 3.0 doesn't use game disc to activate the softmod. Are you referring to Krayzie's Ndure 1.1?

If hotswapping is correctly done, your hdd will be temporarily unlocked and you have access to its contents. I suggest you get a clean set of msdash files from Slayer's or CASH 1.1. Together with Kingroach Ndure 3.1, you can apply the softmod again after formatting everything on C drive. The prior deletion is to prevent residue files from earlier softmods from interfering with the softmod process. Read the pinned topic for the details on how to apply the softmod correctly.

After you are done, grab your eeprom backup to your PC.

I took a clean C and E installation, copied over the files to my PC, along with the EEprom. Went in XBoxHDM, created a new drive with non-modded files, locked it.

Then I loaded the evox exploit to get FTP access, and deleted the entire C drive, put the Ndure 3.1 patched C drive and the E drive on the hard drive. Everything seems to be working fine.

Did I follow a proper install procedure?

You could have installed the kingroach ndure files during the xboxhdm stage. But the end outcome is the same - you have a working softmodded xbox

I tried to backup to EEPROM using the Unleashx in E:\ndts. After the backup utils starts the xbox resets and the "default" unleashx starts. I now have an EEPROM.BIN in E:\NKP11 (256bytes).

I started "E:\ndts\unleashx.xbe" instead of "E:\ndts\default.xbe". Using default.xbe the ndure toolset now works! I just grabbed my EEPROM.

I installed this softmod on another Xbox with the non-online, singleboot method. One problem though. How do I access the msdash to change video settings? Do I need to just disable virtual eeprom, and go into NTDS, so I can see the shadowc? What will the file for the original msdash be called?

Thanks!

Did the original unmodded xbox have msdash ver 5960? e:\ndts\default.xbe will temporarily disable virtual eeprom. What does this

CODE

non-online, singleboot method

mean? Did you invoke the ndure script with xbrowser during installation or your C drive was a total replacement with kingroach ndure's C folder?

Check if you have a xb0xdash.xbe (there's a zero) on C drive after you invoke ndts

I installed Ndure 3.1 (again: THANKS so much!) but without the LBA48 nkpatcher option.

Afterwards I stumbled upon an old IDE Seagate 200Gb drive that was lying around, so I used xboxhdm (and the tutorial on this site) to put that in.

Xboxhdm created an F: drive (120 Gb or so) and a G: partition that I cannot see (I saw it using xboxpartitioner). I guess I need to activate the LBA48 bios patch before I can use the G: drive.

I googled, read the readme's but I can't seem to figure it out. How do I enable the LBA48. Do I have to reinstall NDure 3.1? (I originally installled ndure without LBA48)

Might be simpler - enable G drive in unleashX.

Anyway the nkpatcher .67 option (F and G drives) is available from e:\ndts\default.xbe (Ndure toolset).
