"FOUND EXISTING SOFTMOD"
This is the second time I have come across this error. Using SID 4.5. Backed up the eeprom fine, but cant backup the MS DASH. Last time I just used another XBOX's C and E drive and make a XBOXHDM Linux boot disk with the correct eeprom. A true pita. Anyone have any idea what would cause this error? This box is v1.0 NEVER been modded before.
Thanks!

If you use AID3.0 you can choose "Make a backup from Disk" and it will create a b.u. with the newest M$dash files for you. Afterwards you'll need to move them from e:\c to e:\backup\MS. (I believe I have those paths correct.) _________________ I think I like fixing Boxes more than using them!
Naaaah!

All that sounds good in theory, but without the ability to backup the MSDASH, I cant softmod the box. It doesnt have a softmod that can be uninstalled either. It errors out when I try to uninstall.
I cant pop the Aid disk in as this reboots into the regular dash. I've been at 29% downloading XED for weeks now.
Any ideas how to fix the existing problem so I can use AID?

Ok, I FTP'd in and copied over a MSBACKUP from another xbox. This allowed me to softmod this one. Could it have been something simple like an older dash? I just dont see why this would happen.

Gus, resoftmodding solves the problem and leaves his settings untouched as long as he backs up the appropriate XMLs... it's that simple and takes another 3 minutes. _________________ "That which does not kill you, only makes you stronger."
