I was trying to get some info of the my Xbox HDD 8GB seagate [I think it is the original drive] so I took it out of my xbox and pluged it into my computer but of couse I unlocked it didn't I and thats were everything went wrong. I couldn't get the hard drive to work on my PC I don't why and because it don't work with my PC I couldn't lock It again and well guess what I found out? Exactly [I got code 5]. If that hardDrive is busted I do have a IDE HITACHI Deskstar 160GB I wont to put in my Xbox but I need some info that's on the other HDD.
I hope somebody can help me.
Thanks

I need a little more info.
1. Has the XBOX been modded (softmod or modchip?)
2. If it has do you have the EEPROM.bin file?
3. Do you have access to a PC that supports IDE hard drives?
4. Do you have XBOXHDM or SID5 Pimped?
As long as you have the PC I can help you get that sucker fixed or put in the 160GB HDD in about 30 minutes.

3. Do you have access to a PC that supports IDE hard drives?
Yes. My PC can do that.

First thing to try is download SID5 Pimped Final from the VIP FTP servers, burn the install and boot discs. Put the bot disc in yur PC and hook the XBOX HDD up (no other hdd should be connected) When it boots pick option 4 and for pasword type xboxscene, if that doesnt work try TeamAssembly. If those dont work for master pasword, the next step is a quasi hotswap. Take the 160GB hdd hok the power from the xbox to it and the IDE to your PC, boot the PC and follow the SID5 Pimped Final tut to do a drive build, when done turn off the PC unplug the IDE and plug the one fro the xbx into the hdd and turn the xbox off This shoud lock the drive with that xboxs eeprom

I tried to download sid5 pimped but I'm on Dial-up [56kb/s very very slow] so I tried to use someone else's Broadband but that didn't work very well, so I was wondering If there is another way to do it.
Cheers
P.S. Sorry I took so long to get back to you.

not really cause you need the files to rebuild the xbox. SID5 Pimped Final is the best app out yet for doing this, and Im not just saying that cause its mine
Try to get your buddy to let you use his connectin or else youre pretty much stuck using dialup. No matter what even if you were just gonna put it to stock and not mod it at the same time youd have to download about 300MB of files and XBOXHDM then make a rebuild disc where as Pimped has the C drive files softmod files for all the major dashs emulators and apps all loaded into an XBOXHDM instaler and ready to go.

Hi
I'm still at it!
We're having trouble with using Torrents we use "µTorrent" to download torrents and have a 200/300KB/S connection but when we try to download it
it seems to slow down to about 8/20KB/S with an eta of 14 hours.

your best bet for a quick download is using the USA VIP Server it should take only minutes to DL from there and it doesnt matter if you arent in USA any VIP can use it.

Got up to 71.3% then it just stopped and we left it for about 2 hours, it said "Downloading" but did nothing else so we're a bit stuck.
Thanks

Hi
I think I know why it only got up to 71%.
On "µTorrent" there is a bar that shows "Availability" green for it is Available and red for not and another bar above that which is "Downloaded"
most of both bars are completely about 71% but the remaining is all red, it won't do anything else other then show "Error:Files missing From Job", it only showed this after it got as far as it could.
I'm almost completely sure i'm connected to the USA Server.
So... allmost but not quite, or something like that
Thanks

The USA Server has nothing to do with Utorrent its a dedicated FTP server and way faster than the torrent route
