Where does xbox store the password to lock or unlock hd. I unlocked Hard Drive using auto installer deluxe v 4.40 lite and lost power so now xbox will not boot up, get error 05 contact customer service. I am using xboxhdm v 1.9 as (http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-161.html) said to do. I just need to know where xbox stores it?? It is asking for a directory as to where the password is?? If you can, please help!! My xbox is screwed unless I can Lock HD back or create new one, but im not quite sure on how to make one from scratch

If you had made a back up of the eeprom then it is in the E drive but if you never made a back up it is on a chip on the MoBo and you will need an eeprom reader to get it.

When you install a softmod you have to backup your eeprom no matter what to install it, so you have one. _________________

Have you tried to see if the HDD is unlocked before it does that by doing the hotswap method? _________________

If the HDD you have is the one that came in the xbox you will need to chip it or make an eeprom reader.

I just built an eeprom Reader from the llamma site for under $20 bucks and well worth it. from there you can get the password.
