A hot swap will probably not work. Have you set the jumper on your new HDD right? They should be set to master (In some cases cable select). And what happend when you boot your XBox with the new HDD?

 

I installed a different BIOS (xecuter) and that got it running using your disc. Finally! Everything runs perfect now. Huge thanks for all your help. I want to use M8 plus BIOS again though because of faster boot, can I just boot your disc again and flash that BIOS or is that going to break something?

Tried to run "3.1.2 AiO Setup a new large HDD" after swap to the new HDD. But it just seemed to get stuck on Formatting C

I'm back...I have got the dvd to boot now, but only with an 13+ year old modded hard drive. The installation disc doesn't boot if I start the xbox with the new hard drive installed. How to solve? Can boot the disc with the old drive and somehow hot install the new drive and format? 

 

Thanks!

The ISO is not ment to be extracted or mounted. Open your burn software and select the ISO and burn it to disc.

Mrs Google say's :

How to Burn an ISO or DMG File to Disc on Your Mac

1. Insert a blank disc in your DVD writer.
2. Open the folder in Finder that contains your ISO or DMG file.
3. Right-click the file and choose "Burn Disk Image"
4. Click Burn.

I've bought a brand new dvd burner and now it seems to be working better, but still not working. I burned the iso and boot with the disc in the xbox. The ring turn red and i see Evo X, Xbox logo and Linux logo below. But nothing happens, the dvd drive works like crazy is very loud but I've been stuck here for 5 minutes. What now?

How are you burning the ISO file to DVD-R media?

If you open the drive on the Mac with a File Manager after burning it, is a directory listing of the disc displayed?

I think you're onto something.  Because when I mount the .iso file its titled "Untitled" and its doesn't even seem empty, in disk manager it looks like this. https://imgur.com/a/alKwjSi

So, I've tried to unrar it with three different softwares and everyone gives me same result. I also tried to redownload the .rar file multiple times.

Edit: Tried mounting Hexen iso and got the same result. Could it be something with me using Mac OS and it not being able to mount a win iso? Haven't experienced that before though...hm

Yes, that sounds like a good plan to fix it.

 

I've managed to flash with evox m8+. And now I get a purple evoX logo when booting. But still no installation disc starting. I now get a "Service required" and it says 13 in the top left. I'm using a external usb dvd burner since I only have two macbooks, could this be the issue? I don't have any other way to burning it. I know the actual dvd drive works since it launches original games.

I don't think that this error has something to do with the installer at all.

Error Code 16

Problem: 
Internal clock cannot be set.

Cause/Solution: 
This happens when the Xbox tries to boot to the stock dashboard in order to have you set the current 
date/time but fails to load the menu. This happens if you:

Just replaced the HDD and are missing your clock capacitor or left your Xbox unplugged for a few hours.
Erased the Microsoft dashboard files (which contain the clock setting) and are missing your clock 
capacitor or left your Xbox unplugged for a few hours.

Have a revision 1.6 Xbox and an old (before 2004) BIOS installed without a clock loop patch and are 
missing your clock capacitor.
To fix this, first try plugging in an Ethernet cable to connect your Xbox to your router. 
In some cases, the Xbox will update it's system clock via NTP. If that fails, try starting the Xbox with 
the Eject button instead of the power button in case it has a dual-boot configuration. 
If that fails and you have a modchip installed, boot into AID or Slayers and try installing the stock 
dashboard back on your HDD's C:\ partition. You can also hotswap your HDD with another Xbox to reinstall 
the Microsoft dashboard. 
After the Xbox boots up and is able to set the clock successfully, update your BIOS or softmod to a more 
recent version to avoid this in the future.

The images are working fine. Needed to burn some of them for my self because I forgot 2 in other drives. *Getting old*

Which image has you load (OGXBox Installer 2021 - v1.5.3.rar sould it be for the "normal" user) and which burn program you are using (Image burn is the best for the job - in my opinion).

Yes thats the image I have on my disc. I only have a Mac, latest OSX, and burned it using the built in software.

Error 16- clock data lost  and the stock MS dshboard files are not found on the hard drive to set the time.

 

Must be an booting an older modified Xbox BIOS that doesn't hae the err16 fix.

Since it was about 18 years something ago I modded this I guess your right. So maybe I can flash the BIOS from the working drive? FTP transfer some new BIOS file into that and then flash? Or is there any other solution?

It is. I would recommend Verbertim DVD-R.

So I've found some Fujifilm DVD-R drives I had laying around, and i write speed was 1x. I get this error - a error with a diagonal black field. Same thing happened to the DVD+RW. Still has to do with the DVD disc brand? Inside there's a drive that hasn't been used for xbox before. I also have a 16 years old drive that still runs some really old xunleash and xbmc and stuff, this works perfect. But I want to use the new, larger, unused drive this time.

If DVD-RW media works heavily depends on your DVD drive. As far as I know it works for some users but, never works for me.

And no, you can not use it via USB adapter. No Game or Intaller works with USB (with the exeptions of Game exploids for softmodding or TSOP flashing but these are more or less "special" apps made to run from HDD copied as savegames to HDD from USB.

Ok, thanks for your information. Seems like a hit and miss, but DVD-R is a safer bet than DVD+RW then?

Tried to burn the iso on a Verbatim DVD+rw (Thompson drive) today but didn't work, nothing happens. Will try to find DVD-R instead but cant this be done with a USB instead? I've got a xbox controller to usb.

 

Thanks!
