when I insert the blank DVD-R disk in to my pc, i get a pop up, there's 2 selections ,. ( like a USB flash drive ) or ( with a cd/DVD player ) . I clicked on "with a cd/DVD player". is that correct or should I have chosen "like a usb flash drive"

okay so I burned the files onto a disk and the Xbox is not reading the disk. I know I did it correctly because when I install this DVD-R disk into my pc I see the taken up space that the files took from the cd. like 2.3 gig out of the 4.7 the DVD-R disk has for available space. so idk what's happening.

I downloaded the file. saved it, I right click the file and "send to" dvd player but it doesn't burn to the disk. idk what I'm doing wrong . I've had it with this Xbox to be fair

do I do ( inline download ) or ( download without SSL encryption )

I just want this xbox functional. I dont care what I use for a dashboard and I'm not upgrading the chip or the hdd. I just want to be able to install disks and play the xbox. Or install games till the hdd is full then install disks when I want to play different games. Very simple. Thank you man you guys have been a great help to me

here is a photo of the chip i have, is there specifix bios any can recommend to me?

thank you so much, I will be doing that tomorrow and I will report back here,

okay great thank you. I'm sorry for all the questions but I'm super new to this, its all like gibberish to me. so about this installer disk, what do I need in order to complete this. do I go and buy dvd-r blank disks? is there a link I can download this modded dash board from? when i have the disk do i just put it into the Xbox and then what? I'm in these threads on this forum but I don't even know where to begin because I'm so lost.

okay so after 24 hours I can post again. sorry I hit my limit as I'm new to this forum,. okay just to clear up a few things. the HDD is after market. I learned today. I will post a picture of it below. it is the hdd that came with this Xbox when it was given to me, to clear a few more things up, when I'm in the main menu and click on "x2 evox 2005" it takes me to the screen that says memory, music, Xbox live, settings. when I click on " slayers" it takes me to that same screen that says memory, music, Xbox live, settings. When I click on original bios it takes me to a black green with green lettering with a 5 at the top left of the screen. now I'm completely lost when it comes to burning one of them programs to a dvd-r cd. how would I do that? I can go by the disks tomorrow and do that. do I need some type of IDE too usb connector? please help me understand. after typing in the model number of this HDD its a 30gb. here's a few photos. now the the picture with the big blue X appears when i click slayers, the green x is when i click x2 evox 2005

okay so I have an update, I have a second og Xbox and last week I had tried that hdd in my modded Xbox, (the Xbox I'm posting about). I forgot to swap that hdd out and install the hdd that came with the modded xbox and now I'm getting error code 5 with the correct hdd in it now. I'm sure of this because I have a photo in my phone of the modded Xbox with this hdd in it. the hdd that shows error code 5. so that's what I'm dealing with currently. I'm not sure what error code 5 is or how to fix this

okay I currently don't have one of those converters. I need one correct?

when you say bios do you mean the smartxx menu screen when I turn on the Xbox? if so a lot of them menu selections take me to that black screen and error code 6

Hi everyone I'm new here to this forum. I'm going to make this short and sweet. I was given an original Xbox by an older friend of mines. It was his sons, he knows nothing about it. I start it up and I get this screen. ( smartxx ) screen, the picture below. when I click on the ( x2 evox 2005 ) it takes me to the photo with the error code 6. I removed the mod chip and then started the Xbox again. the screen went black with some green lettering and a code error 6 on the top left of the screen. is there anyway I can completely remove this chip and have it back to factory settings. or do I need to keep this mod chip in the Xbox? is there something I can do to make this thing work? there's no games anywhere in this chip. idk what to do. if you need more pictures of the menu please let me know so i can post them, thank you for your help
