Title: A Couple Of Questions About Eeprom
Post by: chuliu on May 09, 2004, 06:37:00 AM
Hi, I purchased two eeproms from someone.  I installed one of them to a banned xbox, it works.  Then I installed the second to another banned xbox, and it shows unable to reach xbox live service.  I noticed that when I was in the recover account dialog, there is blank after the S/N at that screen when I try to go live with the second banned xbox while there is digits after the s/n in the recover account screen of the xbox that works.  Also, the s/n in config magic of the eeprom.bin that fails starting with 2xxxx and my xbox's serial starts with 5xxx as I notice it on the back of the box.  

Please point it out for me what is wrong.

Also, I tried to put the eeprom.bin that works on the xbox that failed to go live with the second eeprom and it seems to work coz it was updating when I tried to recover the account.  Then, of course I pull the working eeprom out afterwards.  However, I began to worry if that( putting the working eeprom to two xbox and go live on both of them) will cause any trouble.  I don't have the first xbox that works on hand so please clarify.  Many thanks.
