you need an original game to get access to the xbox. there is no other way ( other then hotswap or chip)!

nope, if you've got 007:Agent Under Fire, Mechassault or Splinter Cell, you can use a usb stick with converter, a action replay or mega-X key, or something alike it to load a gamesave exploit onto your game if you really don't want to open your xbox.

You don't even need to buy anything to do the hot swap method, as long as you already have a cd burner, which I would say most people do.  It took all of 30 minutes to complete, between reading and re-reading the docs and performing the mod.  Worked perfectly the first time!

talon4x4, what do you mean about you only need a cd don't you need all the game saves to start the ftp bit so you can soft mod.
My problem is i cant get the gamesaves onto the xbox cause i ain't got any thing to put it on except blank cds/dvds and dvd/cd copier and the other thing is that i don't want to open my xbox up but after that i am ok because i have the leads to connect my xbox to pc and everything through ftp and the programs.

he's talking about xboxhdm. it will make a boot cd for your computer but you will have to open your xbox.
do a search on xboxhdm in xbox scene

listen if you don't want to open it your only option is to use a gamesave exploit. there are no super bootdiscs that'll do the trick

ok guys, thanks for all your help if anybody know otherwise please post

there is no otherwise. Is it really that hard to believe. Think about it....if we had bootable installer discs we wouldn't even need to mod anything now would we?

which version of splinter cell is it the first one
thanks

The very first splinter cell game.  Seriously, it's only like $5 at gamestop or gamecrazy.  Not a whole lot of money there.

because you don't need to keep putting the game i will just rent it i think unless i find it cheaper by the way i live in the U.K

p.s i am going to buy a mega x key and use that to softmod does anybody know where to get that cheap in the U.K

So i brought it off ebay pre made for £5       £2.50(postage aswell)  


Two questions

1) can i do the softmod with the hard drive that came with the xbox

2) i have a 16mb flash memory usb key will that be enough to put the splinter cell pal gamesave on

If you are just starting softmodding and definitely don't want to open the box i would definitely buy the game so i could regain access just in case something messes up down the line.

It will be cheap as chips pre-owned down at your local Gamestation.

I brought one of those xbox to usb convertors off ebay instead so don't worry about the mega x key. I tried making my own usb convertor for the xbox but it never worked i soldered the correct wires left yellow out  and then black to black etc. But it never worked.
