if it's an old xbox it's normal it doesn't show an error. just try to coldboot your retail exploited game and load the save. otherwise hotswap. if you locked it wrong then you need to play with xboxhdm some more.

man cold booting not working
heres the thing xboxhdm must have tampered with the pass (i dont know how that happened i dont have the unlock key) but ndure did put my eeprom on a backup i was trying to access it but it doesnt look possible now is there any new ways to flash the tsop with a ms dash so it wont check for key? i wish the flash could be made via usb to a pc or something easy
but im looking for an xbox like bios that doesnt check for key

If I understand it correctly, you used xbhdm to lock your HD with a wrong key and your right key (eeprom) is on the HD. In that case, it might be fixable. Unlock your HD with xbhdm. If you locked it with xbhdm, a master password get set. I am not sure what it is tho, but I'll have a look. Then use xbhdm to grab the eeprom from your HD, and lock your HD with this eeprom.
you have to use the atapwd command withing xbhdm
Master Password: XBOXSCENE

ok ill see cuz i cant use xbrowser it says no partitions or something i guess because its locked
but i never unlocked it to lock it i guess it just added another pass huh
oh and does ndure installer store the pass in E:\backups\eeprom\backup\eeprom.bin all i need is the bin huh
ill try this technique tho

Title: Bad News Very Bad :(
Post by: Horscht on September 23, 2005, 08:08:00 AM

yeah, somewhere in the backup\eeprom folder. the eeprom.bin is what you need.

hmmm i tried it i never set any master password like that
when i try to run xbrowser in linux it says found and then said no partition hmmm
and when i told it to search for the eeprom.bin i typed the path these two ways i know little about linux in command line mode
dev/hda/backups/eeprom/backup
dev/hda/backups/eeprom/backup/eeprom.bin
and lastly
/backups/eeprom/backup
/backups/eeprom/backup/eeprom.bin

So, that didn't work. Try hotswapping, then. To get information on hotswapping, check DaddyJ's Siganture. Or misterhoangdai's

If you want to unlock the hard drive, don't bother with xboxhdm. Just make an MS-DOS bootable floppy disk containing <<ATAPWD>>. You won't have to hotswap, you can just hook it up in your computer and boot it to the floppy and then choose to unlock the hard drive using master password. Type XBOXSCENE in all caps and it should unlock. You then need to disable the hard drive so it doesn't lock again. You can then use XboxHDM without hotswapping. And it should read it fine.

since your the only one having that bright idea why don't you do that? It must be simple.
and you don't need another xbox to hotswap. you can hotswap to a pc just fine also. you know there is a search button, pinned topics, tutorials and such all over the place right?

I think it's really unfair that you keep on trying to blame XBoxHDM or Krayzie's installer for the problems you've encountered, when in fact, they are really a product of your own mistakes. Lots of people, myself included, get it right using those tools. They are excellent tools, in fact. I hope you get your box sorted out, but please, don't try to pass the buck. You tried to mod it, nobody else.

I don't see how you can be so sure it's the exploit, when it's working extremely well for so many people. It took me three attempts to get NDURE working, but I finally figured it out, and it's really cool. My advice: work out what you need to do differently, because I really doubt you're the first person with a 1.0 to install NDURE.
With regards to your hard drive, that's not a great thing to happen, and you have my sympathy. I managed to perma-lock a 120gb drive when I first got into modding, due to my lack of knowledge.
You have to face facts: XBoxHDM did not tamper with anything. You made a mistake. It's that simple. Your hard drive is now a doorstop. I've been there, and it's not so great. Your X-Box, however, is far from dead. Bt installing a chip - even if only temporarily - you can get the eeprom, and use that to lock a new hard drive. If you're borrowing a solderless chip, that would be my recommendation. If you have to buy a chip, you don't need to worry about locking the hard drive at all, you can just install any new drive.
This is an expensive lesson, but take heed of this: People have been trying to help you in this thread, and you're just blaming your tools. Well, that doesn't seem too polite to me, considering that people like Krayzie and the others put a lot of work into them for our benefit.
