I just installed my softmods yestereday using Softmod Installer Deluxe v2 (Linux) and now I have some probelms. I backed up my xbox and all and now all my files have been cleared because i'm a noob and formatted my drives. Now my xbox live doesn't work and everytime I try to sign in it either just doesn't do it, or I get error 21 please call customer support. Can someone please tell me how to fix this. (And on a side note...how do you FTP your xbox. I tried that and it didn't work either. I have UnleashX on my xbox so is a problem too?)

well my guess is you delete your eeprom....you will have to find a new one. which another modder can do for you. I know for a fact there is a guy on xbox-scene that sells them. You will have to PM him and give him your info like model and stuff then he will mail it to you on a disc and you rip it to your HDD. But if you backedup your files where did you put them????? If you did put it in E drive it may still be in C drive. Now as for FTP you have to go to your setup in your dash and setup the IP and sub net for both your CPU and your box. Look in the tut forum I know I made one that work for me for an apple but there is another FTP for cpu to the box for box to server and so on _________________ The mighty V6 Passat came to chew bubble gum and kick%^* and shes all out of bubble gum!

lol you can't erease your eeprom when formatting drives
so don't panic this can be fixed easy
if you still can boot to unleashx just get AID and redo your softmod and ms-dash install.
if it boots always to error 21 then you still can recover your xbox by doing a hotswap. look under my signature for the tutorial and ms-dash files.

just have to totaly agree with pirrup , eeproms are made even when your xbox is not modded , its just that you do not see it because its hidden and its viewable once its modded. if aid works you just saved some time if not just do hotswap it fixees it all : _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

it got to my attention you said you have unleash x ... what you mean by that? can you load it ? or you get error 21 everytime ? and if linux is not avaible then you MUST do a hotswap ... not even aid can help at this point. _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

What is Auto-Installer Deluxe?
supported multiple dashboard installs. It had a similar idea to Slayers, but instead took a more broad look at what was available software-wise at the time. It allows you to install one of many different Dashboards, and has countless Applications and Emulators to choose from. Now it's currently up to version 3.0, and in that time was grown bigger, and more flexible than any other installer available.
