so i was just wondering as I am planning on softmodding an xbox for a friend, if i could swap his harddrive into my chipped xbox, then ftp the 007 gamesave and the launcher onto his harddrive. then put his hd back into his xbox, go rent 007 and would it work.
im just wondering if I have to get him to buy Action Replay or if this will work, or if im missing something that makes this a bad idea.
thanx

I switched from 4 to the new version and now the xboxes I've used it on keep booting up to the default ms dash. but it's still in mod mode and if i pull both triggers and hit back and start at the same time it does the IGR, and boots to my evoxdash. If i re-soft mod them, then it will start booting up to evoxdash, but as soon as the clock gets reset because the xbox has been unplugged for too long it starts going back into msdash
what is causing this?
my wife has temporarily solved the problem by replacing msdash.xbe on the "fake" c drive with our evoxdash file renamed to msdash.xbe.

we figgured out that if you just set the clock and turn the power off it reboots and is not saving the time.. just goes right back to the clock.
i set the clock went in and played around in the dashboard, and then went to the xbox live option and went into account recovery, then backed out to the regular dash and shut it down it kept the time, and now it boots into my custom dash.

what part of it is silly?
the reason it's there, it's so you DON'T run into the famous error 16 and you have to hotswap to fix it. _________________ Xbox v1.1

U DONT DO THAT ....!!! once u already did dualboot=retail .... to play xbox live u gotta press the eject try to turn on xbox.... it should load up ms dashboard then from their its safe to play xbox live . lol not power on xbox normal then throught moded dash put retail game lol not like that ... u power on with the eject button so the tray opens and then the ms dashboard loads up .....
btw hellblazer that is what he is trying to do ... play xbox live but what he was doing was.... power on xbox normal then load hacked dash then eject tray and pop game in ..... but we ALL know its not like that.... its EJECT TRAY open so it power it on like that and the MS DASHBOARD should load up then ur good..... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

This may be a stupid question, but I am trying to figure out what version of SID I am running ??
Why: A buddy of mine install the SMod and has given me a number of DVD-r's each with different versions of SID..
I would really like to get HDTV support working, as the MSDash won't "stick" the change to 480p/720p/1080i/Widescreen..
ALSO: when I try to set "widescreen" in M$dash, my xb0x 'resets' by itself..
Thanks in advance.. _________________ Diggerdoo

check to see if you have E:\UDATA\21585554\000000000000\
or get a exploitable game and see what menu it boots to. _________________

Just wondering, if I don't really care too much about xbox live!, is there any point to me upgrading from SID 2.0, to this? Will it help my xbox to stop crashing on games or make it more stable or something else pretty?

Possibly, this SID 4.5 is a lot newer than 2.0 so if you were having problems before this might help.
