Xbox swap mod help!

Post by locedd »

I made a xboxhdm cd using ndure, swaped my hdd and tried to install this. Well it let me get far thought everything was going good but then it said my drive was locked and now i tried to put it back in the xbox but i get green and red lights flashing. so how can i unlock the hdd to do the swap method if I can't even boot the xbox?
If I remove the ide cables from the hdd the xbox boots up till the splash screen, if the hdd is connected though it flashes green and red..

What do you guys suggest i do to fix this? thanks what route should i take

Have you got an eeprom.bin backup on the drive, or on your PC somewhere?
If so, use xboxhdm to lock it, or indeed entirely rebuild your HD (or a new one) from scratch and lock it.

...or you could install a modchip like Prince says.
