How do I upgrade my SID 2.0 installation to SID 4.5 without reformatting my entire drive?

Why do I have to remod it after I install the softmod? Can't I just write SID 4.5 over 2.0? Why do I need to install the backup Microsoft dash again? It all works as it should, I just want to get the new version of SID.

because mostly likely as soon as you replace the 2 sid files on your xbox run linux you will run into " batch process failed" found exsisting softmod files....

so im telling you the easiets /fastest way of doing it w/out wiping out your entire hd...

really how hard can this be? run disc advance install 4.5 to hd install ms dash as a replacement dash ( so it wipes out any exsisting mod) and put your game back and re mod it .

i never said anything about using a mem card did i bro Rolling Eyes Smile

when you are on the step of choosing sid 4.5 knave edition it will ask where to hd , mem card slot 1 slot 2 etc ec.. but you are putting it to hdd so which means will over write the current ones and then you put the clean ms dash from the same disc . as a dash replacement then take off the disc put the exploitable game then load the linux and fellow steps Razz

So I put in the exploitable game after installing SID 4.5 but how do I then load linux? Is it a save that appears in the exploitable game?

yes after you installed the sid 4.5 from the disc to hd and installed the ms dash as well then you take out disc and re mod it like you did the first time... if you get to the point of linux create ms back up then create eeprom back up install softmod> region?>single boot or dual boot=retail?> ux power off power back on take out disc and voila....

single boot meaning if you power it on or open tray it will load the same dash... dual boot=retail moens on open tray you load the xbox live so you can live and power well loads hacked dash ...

once its modded it will glow red

red = mod is active

green = everything is patched back to normal and ready for xbox live.

Here's the logic Gus is trying to get to.
To install SID 4.5 you need to have a retail version of m$dash 5960. Since your box is already softmodded, it will be easier to upgrade using AID.
Once you have AID burned to a disc, load it and install into c: the m$dash 5960 for the "install dashboards" menu. Make a back up of the dash and of the eeprom from the back up menu. Then from the softmod menu, install SID 4.5.

I backed up all of my data, but for some reason when I tried to install the softmod it says "E\backup\ms not found". I tried backing up my c drive to E/backups/ms in the menu, but it said that the modded files were found. Question

EDIT: Maybe the problem was that I couldn't find a way to install the ms dash as a backup dashboard. I just clicked install ms dash 5960.

EDIT 2: Shoot. For some reason, it won't let me back into AID it just comes up with the infamous maintenance error now. Fortunatley I can still get into 007.

nvm I got it to work thanks.

why did you not format the C drive with aid?
then install msdash 5960
backup eeprom, backup msdash
install softmod 4.5
