no , u cant do it that way , you cant do a tsop mod , you not gonna do a softmod cause youre scared of braking your expansive computer ,
so you only have 1 option left , buy a chip with solderless adapter ,
Xeniu SPice is fairly easy to install , dont need to solder anything ,
but you need to read tutorials
go to http://www.teamxodus.com/ and read the "ice guide" and the SPice install guide _________________ Xbox v1.0/1.1/1.5/1.6a

you can do a tsop mod on the 1.0 xbox ,
and then you can put a large harddrive in it without having to hotswap
but it requires a little soldering _________________ Xbox v1.0/1.1/1.5/1.6a

i wouldnt recommend going 2 chips yes they have pros n cons 4 xbox.. but DUDE ur not gonna break anyting on ur pc TRUST ME I HAVE OVER 10GS and im not scar of opeing it again... i dont think u can top that on ur pc.. righ??? and xboxhdm1.9 is very veyr simple.. the simplest thing to do... get a maxtor hd as they are easy to lock hds.. as taht is what u need to do if u dont have a chip ...
let me know what u wanna do.. but i stil suggest opeing ur pc as u dont damage anytin.. all u have to do is unplug power from it open it unplug the hd put the 1 u want 4 xbox have the disc run on the cd/dvd rom which ever.. and begain process i'd say it NO MATTER WHAT takes @ most like 20 mins.. didnt time my 200gb hd.. as i finished 2 quick b4 i thought of timiin it ... u only need 2 have these tings on ur pc cd rom/ and the hd u wanna upgrade.. ... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

ihave a new gateway n a old compaq presario that i didnt use.so i read about hotswapping to fix error 21.i tried it n couldnt get the boot disc to work so when i hooked my pc hdd back up it says non system disk orhard disk error.i dont know what the hell is wrong with it but im not opening my new pc.so im looking into a modchip.if i mess that up i can just get a new xbox 4 a $100 or less.i cant just get up and grab a new pc.so modchip is what im going for.so wich one do u recommend?

The reason u got that on the other pc was becuz thes reason 1 its old .. and 2 u left the hd of the pc in there when u ran the disc ... IF U WOULDNT RUN the disc linux then ur hdd would of never gotten this error ... thou its true i woulnt risk my pc on the line .. BUT LIKE I SAID IM ALMOST 100 % CERTAIN U DONT MESS UP .. as gateways seem good enouhg .. i have the xps gen 600 renage ... u wont find that til later spring ... it was on ces of 06.. look them up on dell.. gaming section...
dont know much bout chips but if u decide to go to chipping then i would say soilderless and somtin like xenuiim ice or spice.. ASK shark2th AS HES THE PRO ON THIS...
but rememver if u have chip then u dont have softmod.. bcuz chip over write what the retail bios = basic input output system is doing 4 example say mr gates says : play only aproval games from me... in other words no unsign codes.. now a chip goes over there and says no u can play anyting. when the chip is switch on ... but when its off it goes retail.. that is why ppl were hyped bout xbl = xbox live.. n softmods were a breeze to put but hassle to turn off 4 live!... OVER time it wasnt an issue .. sid4 dual boot= retail.. u know??? SO THAT IS PRETTY MUCH THE IDEAL.. I HOPE THIS HISTORY LESSON /IDEAL was good .. as this was never mentioned... does ur old pc stil work? _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

and when u hotswap did u leave ur pc hdd there??? cuz maybe hotswap is what mess up ur pc... oh and i stil recommend having some1 2 do the chip 4 u If u decide to go with chip....
see only thing that is better bout chips right now that i can think of .. is that u have FULL acces to ms dash .. as when sid4 whe u had dual boot = retail u coulnt get network setings or xbl section.. cant remember exactly.. but I DEFIANLY recommend softmod vs chip..
trust me u wont meess up ur pc . If u do it the way its soposed 2 be done.. so lets say u get the disc ready... leave it on the cd rom.. 1 . unplug the pc . 2. unplug the PC HDD!!! AND put the other new hdd u want 2 make . 3. plug back run disc first ( on boot order settings) and just fellow the simple steps and u should have a upgrade hdd less then 30 mins.. _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition
