Well, I must say that little XBWatch utility saved my butt last night at 2AM after I flashed the TSOP and upgraded the HD to 120GB.
I was unable to get to the MS dashboard even booting with the evoX CDRW.
I simply ran it and synched! The MS dash was instantly available. If it was not for it I would have screwed.
KUDOS to the developer(s)! One life saving utility.
