hi just got back into the xbox scene
I've done a few Xboxes over the years.
just finished a new one, tried the hdd swap technique using a chipped xbox and a soft mod xbox and using config magic
this one went very well and worked like a charm
took me all day on my first attempt but 90 percent of my time was wasted using ftp, somehow my network card had reverted to 10mbs and after finally realising this was the problem a simple setting change and the transfer went 10 times as fast..
