hello all ,
ok im trying to install a spiderchip on my buddy's 1.3 xbox but now the problem is he wants a 160gb western digital hard drive put in and i dont see a bios that says it supports any hard drives over 120 for anything under a 1.6 version . so will the regular evox m7 bios work to support the 160 gb hard drive or is there no bios for the spiderchip that will support any hard drive over 120gb except of course you have a 1.6 version xbox can anyone help me out thanks .

I beleive we had this discussion before just use the X2 4983_06 bios(bin) and you should be set to put the 160 gig drive in it just make sure its for 1.0-1.5 xboxes and its 256K its just like my bios that I use. _________________

hi thanks for the reply ,
yeah you did responde to my other post , i just thought if i posted it on the spiderchip forum maybe i could get some more info . ok i found the bios now what do i do ? i put in the spider chip and it says load bios from hdd / disk after i put in the disk then what do i do to format the 160gb hard drive ? i will be using the AID disk can you tell me what steps i need to do to properly format the 160gb . cause i was reading and it says that the x2 -4983.06 only formats the g drive , but when i formatted my last hard drive i had to use f and g this is were im confused .

boot with AID 2.11 in disk tray select
format /prepare HDD
format large HDD
back to main menu
install dashboards
install ms dash 5960
back to install dashboards
install c drive dashboards
install evox or what ever dash you want
then use advanced tool and configmagic to lock the HDD
shutdown
boot without CD
and install apps
Keep in mind i got this some where else I used xboxhdm to make my new harddrive from backups. I hope this helps a bit. _________________

xboxhdm i used when i screwed up the mod lol and that way i could format an f drive as well, you should make a back up of your original hdd always and keep your original harddrive incase the bigger hd fails sometime down the road. And that process I posted should work.
Oh BTW after you finished making you new harddrive make a backup of it too, you can never go wrong with extra backups. _________________

yeah i never thought of making a backup of my formatted hard drive , i guess i should do that huh how would i go about making a backup of my 200gb hard drive i khow there is a few ways of doing it but what is the best way . also i thought up of another idea on how to get that 160gb hard drive working tell me if you think it will work . ok i will install the 160gb drive in my own 1.6 xbox format the hard drive install all the apps etc then unlock the hdd , then i will install it on my friends 1.3 xbox and use his spiderchip to lock the hard drive then just remove the chip and horrayy done .
i think this method will work because i put my xbox in a new case and fully assembeld it but i did not put in the chip by accident and powered my xbox up and i noticed that it went straight to the evox dashboard so what do you think man can i do this ?????/ thanks again for your insight .
