Hmmm, I got a copy of SC, and now xbox won't even read original disks. I'm thinking about doing a hot-swap (http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=496263) but don't know if the drive is unlocked since it is stuck at xbox logo. Any ideas?
Removing dvd rom IDE before you power on will usually result in an unlocked hdd for you to hotswap.

I would get sc. get ftp acces and restore your xbox to retail and then start over again using a complete pre set package..
how do you do restore the xbox to retail? And will this fix the service required message
