Post by scroeffie »

im trying tp upgrade a tsop xbox with a 500gb sata drive
when i use xbpart 1.3 all is fine i can see the f and g partitions
when i install dashboard G: does not exist i can see the letter but i cannot acces it it says 0
this is not my first time upgrading a hdd but this xbox gives me allot of problems am i missing something here ??

If the bios saw the F and G drives on the 250Gb HDD then the bios is a F and G drive bios already I would have thought presuming you used the same machine to do both tests so, here is something you may like to try. Go to filemanager, click on G drive that is saying O, which by the way G would not be showing in filemanager unless you have a F and G drive bios, and create a folder in the G drive using the sub menu popup. I usually call it movies and dump something in it. It can be any size and this will open the g drive ready to use. You can delete what you dropped in if you want or even delete the folder. Once you have done this process the G drive will always be ready to use and immediately show the size of it instead of 0mb.
