Is the xbox broken? Is it softmodded or chipped? If its chipped you can just pop in aid and install a dash and back it up with config magic.

(1) Cant hotswap unless you got the eeprom. The only way I know how to get it back is to install a chip and put in the AID disk and install dash and configmagic then back up the eeprom and ftp to your computer. Its best to ftp the whole E drive and put it all on the cd. (including the eeprom)


(2) To do hotswaping go to this link read it once or twice to make sure you got it I had trouble myself the first time I tryed. http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-153.html


Found a link how to recover eeprom http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-161.html

Dont need eeprom to hotswap because the xbox unlocks it for you.
