Title: Soft Modded - Now Stuck In A Boot Loop!
Post by: x-spyda on January 14, 2006, 06:21:00 PM
Guys,

Hoping you can help me out on this one ...

xbox soft modded today - all ok, backups played fine and all was well.

Decided to put the evox dash on it so I could load it up with xbmc etc. Ok, so booted from a DVD to get the evox dash up and backed up all the files from the c: drive - so far so good.

Copied back a job lot of files taken of another (known working evox) xbox's c: drive but here I think I made the mistake. Instead of deleting all original files from the c: drive and starting a fresh, I chose to overwrite the original files. This meant that after the ftp txfr of all the files necessary, there were also surplus files on the c: drive (ie. some of the original files).

Now, normally I would have taken these out so that what was in c: of the recently flashed xbox was EXACTLY the same as was in c: of the known working evox xbox. This I forgot to do. :(

Result :

Constant looping when trying to boot ANY disc in the xbox. Will not even boot the evox dash from either the HDD or the DVD drive. So now I cannot ftp to the Xbox to fix the problem.

Any ideas guys? The finished thing was MEANT to be a Birthday prezzy for the Missus's bro. Could really do with getting this sorted with as little pain as possible!

Cheers all ...

Cheers ...

Am I right in thinking that a soft modded xbox (using the exploits) will not allow the evoxdash to be installed and run without disk?
