Why not pop in aid and back up the info you want to keep then reset the xbox to stock then resoftmod to the singleboot?

Why don't you upgrade to sid 5.0 too since your already going to be resoftmodding?
Also, why would you want to change from a duel boot to a single boot? A duel boot is better than the single boot by far. _________________

I have no need for XBOX Live, therefore no need for dual boot. _________________ -nicatronTheGreat - Console H4x0r

The duel boot does the same exact thing as the single boot, i don't understand why you would want to get rid of it. Pressing power button = single boot. The extra turn on with eject for ms dash makes duel boot better.
I just don't understand why you wouldn't want to keep the duel boot when it does the same thing but has an extra feature. _________________

Just back up the hdd and use aid to unmount the virtual c drive if you have one and reset the hdd to stock.
From there just resoftmod with sid5 and the single boot option.
Why do you care if he drops the duleboot darth?
I only use single boot and its all i ever needed.

I'm just trying to figure out the reason why you wouldn't want the duel boot. I guess if its really bothering him go for it. _________________

It just not that grate an option, if you want xbox live it is but no live=no need.
I hate when i go to put a disk in and it boots to a stock dash, i want a mod dash no matter how i turn it on.

I only use a single boot option too. If I desperately need the MS dash for something, I'll access it via my dashboard and I never use Live.
To quote a line...
"The problem, as you so elequently put it, is choice"
Lol, I never realized I hadn't finished this. Yes I just re-softmodded with single boot. It is awesome! _________________ -nicatronTheGreat - Console H4x0r

Nicatron... How did you re burn a fresh install of your original HDD? ... I am looking to do a fresh softmod as well but all of the tuts start from an unmodded box. I cant get mine back to normal.
