One time I accidentally typed in the wrong character in one spot and had the smae problem....Check you lock code again and see if it the right one you typing in...Installing XBMC shouldnt have messed anything up.....
If that dont work then use the XBHDM cd you made from your EEPROM, C, E, and reformat the drive and do it over again.. As long as you have your EEprom your safe, The C and E folder can be optained from anyone...
Your in better shape than that kid who stuck his power brick in water and shocked himself..

Dont kick xbmc for a user error.
Have you been useing the aid disc to install xbmc every time?
Seems like few folks out thare get it to go that way.
If you get it back up and running you need to hand install the new svn build and that will get it running.

Yeah don't hate on XBMC lol I love that dashboard (so freakin many file formats supported). Anyway if you have a modchip like an X3CE and your AID isn't working (this happened to me). You can just FTP from the Xecuter 3CE BIOS menu. _________________ |Xbox|NTSC|Version 1.1|Hardmodded with Xecuter 3CE Chip and Xapt3r Solderless Kit|Seagate 320 GB Hard Disk Drive|Phillips DVD Drive|Running Xbox Media Center Dashboard with MC360 Skin|

Hmm well I think there is some thing like Xbox Hard Drive Maker that you can use to put stuff on the Hard Drive. You have to put it in your PC though. Not sure how it works though because I never had to use it. You should research it. _________________ |Xbox|NTSC|Version 1.1|Hardmodded with Xecuter 3CE Chip and Xapt3r Solderless Kit|Seagate 320 GB Hard Disk Drive|Phillips DVD Drive|Running Xbox Media Center Dashboard with MC360 Skin|
