Well, I am still learning a lot of the Softmod lessons. I had a successful MechAssault Exploit and had Evox, XBMC, and the whole nine yards working great...then...
I decided I wanted to get the M$ Dashboard option working from Evox. I followed the instructions from another site, and I didn't understand the significance of the font files no longer being in the root. I actually uploaded them to the root of my C. Once I did that, I now get the Service Screen without any Error number at power up with or without thr tray open.
So, I figured, heck, I'll throw in my Mech disc, reload the exploit, be back in business quick. Instead, I see UnleashX load, and then it immediately checks for a disc in the DVD tray. Of course it finds the MechAssault disc and then reloads the game. If I try to reload UnleashX again, through the savegame without a power cycle, the system just freezes. Also, if I try to eject the disk while UnleashX is loading, I can't get the tray open all the way to get the disc out.
Is there a way to abort the 'autorun' or 'autoplay' within UnleashX? Is there a key sequence to exit the game and go directly to the UnleashX dash? I tried BLACK-START-LTRIG-RTRIG and that seems to do a restart on my XBox, but following that restart, the exploit will not load. (Similar to the tries following the first try after a power cycle.)
I tried FTP and I can't get in using the password that I knew after my initial soft mode. Is there a default Xbox password other than Xbox/Xbox?
What is my best course of action at this point? I think I have a full backup of my system before and after my initial softmod. So, I assume I can go back if required, but not sure about that either.
Please help.

In case someone else runs into this. I was able to get past it by simply quickly selecting 'Install Softmod' again and as long as it got going before the DVD spun back up, it will complete the install of the softmod and then I was able to power cycle and see UnleashX without a disc in the tray just like before. I then had to reinstall Evox and I did lose my Evox SKins and ini, but that's a small price to pay...
Of course, I was sure to turn off the Autolaunch setting for Game, immediately in UnleashX.
May all your mods be smooth...
