So you have a Maxtor hard drive that was in an Xbox but the Xbox broke and now you want to unlock it without using an eeprom backup. Is that right?

The tool you linked to seems to only unlock drives and shouldn't erase their contents. I'm just going off of what I'm reading in that and other forums.

Qwix will backup and extract XISO for use on Xbox HDD. It will automatically ftp the files from PC to Xbox once extracted, too. +1 for this method, very very quick transfer speeds when you use Qwix and Avalaunch together. Honestly though you can just get your hard drive setup and then build your sl...

As much as I love confluence, this skin looks pretty stellar. Good luck to you guys. Hopefully it's not an impossible undertaking converting it!

Thrice just released this track off their new album. I keep finding it popping up in my head. :D http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SecJsEelf3c [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F-glHAzXi_M[/youtube] Not stuck in my head but hilarious Fyi the youtube video isn't showing because it's using HTTPS a...

Hey guys, I've seen this same post from Afterdawn pop up for years now. It's the top result on google for anyone looking for OG Xbox error codes and it could be better. The post has broken Bbcode, spelling/grammatical errors, assumes you're using Slayer/modchips, etc. It's super old now. Can we try ...

dvd2xbox from what I believe try's to patch the game executable's and truncates non fatx compliant filenames stored on the game disks when ripping the titles. fatx formatted hdd's and xbox game disks have differences in supported characters and amount of characters allowed in the path and file name...

I had a decent sized zip file floating around with a bunch of different configurations. Once xbox-scene's forums are back up I'll try to track it down.

That looks great RunsilenT

paypal donation to join the forum ? and it lists a number on your credit card receipt to verify :-) I had to do that on another site but I cant remember what it was only 10 cents or something like that. I don't favor this as it would discourage real people from joining. I know I didn't have a paypa...

Thank you so much, Buzz. I was sad to see TMDB break and actually investigated it myself for a couple hours poking around in the code and comparing to Kodi's svn to no avail so it's great to see you got it working.

I will be (hopefully) getting an original Xbox soon, how relatively easy is it to install a 40GB IDE hard drive, softmod, and install XMBC? I see a guide online for softmodding, not sure about installing XBMC. I repair computers as a hobby, so I don't imagine it being too hard to install an IDE har...

Go to the file manager in XBMC and copy the game as seen on your D:\ drive to a folder somewhere on the 1TB drive. If that sounds hard, you can also use the app "dvd2xbox" to rip the game. Also, you can rip games over FTP if your 1TB drive isn't setup in an Xbox yet. Edit: don't copy games...

Having the same problem here. Build: XBMC4Xbox 3.5.1-r32990 (SVN:32990, compiler 1310). Built on May 31 2015 Looking at Kodi forums, it looks like they have had issues as well. I tried replacing xbmc4xbox's API key with one from Kodi and then got a different error, code 22: "Invalid page: Pages...

Blast from the past right there. Look at the beautiful graphics!

Just wanted to share this terrific mod I found a few months back by an admin of GameToast.com, Teancum. This is a an Xbox compatible mod for Star Wars Battlefront 2 that adds an immense amount of reply value to an already great game. All credit goes to Teancum. You can find the original thread here:...

Hey guys, just wanted to let you all know I had to back-burner this project for a little bit but will pick it back up as time permits. There's been a ton of work for me to do at my job what with writing a WordPress-based statistics plugin while making a new site theme AND migrating it all to a dedic...

So what needs to be done to that drive to make it work? As far as the tray state and such goes. A slot loading drive would be pretty sleek

Thanks a lot for the tips dan dar3. You seem to know what works best. Yeah I can see that script uses things that may come in handy. It would a great place to start for someone like me, just diving into python. I have experience in web code and design, so it's been fun trying something new. I've bee...

Might be a stupid question but I didn't see you bring it up yet. Have you already installed the addon "simplejson" in the addon installer? It needs to be installed before the Pandora script will run. Also, can you copy/paste your log file? -> pastebin It will make it easier to deduce what'...

I hadn't considered a slot loading drive. That would be pretty slick actually. Could I ask what you used in your build? I just checked out the whole thread and loved the pics. That thing's a beast.
