A hard modded and soft modded system do not play nice with each other and when you use the fix boot problems option on the OGXbox installer disk on the soft modded drive it would have removed the soft mod and that's fixed it for the hard-modded Xbox but it's upset the drive for the soft modded Xbox.

Sounds like you have trace damage from a leaking clock cap. The 4 thin traces along the front in the red rectangle are the power and LED control lines and and the thin traces in the yellow are for control port's 1 and 2 And just on the top right corner of the yellow box is the clock cap. Can you post a pic of the bottom of your main board. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Now test for power at the 12 pin plug with the mains connected The blue wire marked PowOK should have around 3.3 volt and the brown should also have 3.3 volt + or - 10%. This is looking at the connector with the front panel towards you Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Use one of the screws as ground and read the voltage on the pins of the PIC. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

When testing resistance (ohm's) the Xbox is unplugged from the wall and testing the PSU the power supply you need it connected to the AC outlet with the meter set to DC volts. Test the blue and purple pins on the IC and you should have 3.3 volt with the Xbox connected to the mains (Wall) Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Sounds like not all the files have been copied over. It can be done the way you are trying but from what I have read is most use a stand alone HDD cloner like this sort of thing I use one like this to clone 2tb HDD's for hard modded Xbox's, insert the master in the front slot and the new HDD in the back slot then hold the read button for 5 seconds then let it run over night. And no PC needed. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

The X2-5035.137 and the EvoX.m8plus.137 bios files are for hard drives under 120gb and you should have the X2 5035.67 and the EvoxM8plus.67 as both are set for F and G drives (2tb or 3tb) Also the Evox bios you listed was made for the version 1.6 (v16)and it looks a F drive 1st then C drive. You should also have a config file on E drive (x2config.ini) for the X2 bios and a config file on C drive (ind-bios.ini) for the EvoX bios Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Error 5 is the HDD is not locked The Xbox that you are putting the hard drive in needs to have a modchip fitted or maybe the modchip is not working. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Error 16 is because the Xbox can not load the clock settings screen due to a possibly missing file. Fitting a mod chip will allow you to load a install disk like the OGXbox Installation 2021 and setup the hard drive to work without needing to set the clock. Also with a modchip it's easier to install and setup a large (2tb) hard drive 1 install modchip 2 fit large HDD 3 boot the Xbox with a installation disk in the DVD drive 4 format new HDD and install dash 5 now you are ready to copy your games to the HDD Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

The reason I say that is your 1st pic it looks like the solder from pin 2 (the pin next to the damaged trace) is shorting to that trace and in the later pic you have probably tried to resolder that pin and lifted the trace.

The Password is A Y B X on the controller and in my view is a stupid idea and the OGXBox installer disk doesn't have passwords Try using the XBpartitioner 1.3 program (It can be found on the OGXbox installer disk under the live apps section) to format the hard drive. When you load that program press A to setup the partition sizes then press start to format the HDD.

Yes I believe there is a soft mod remove option. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

On the Xbox that's had the onboard bios re-flashed have you tried to load a Install disk like the OGXbox Installer 2021 from here https://1fichier.com/dir/mX1kipIz as most of the time a HDD that's setup for a soft-mod will not work on a hard modded Xbox, This disk has a remove soft-mod option. Will it boot a game disk? Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

In one of the pics it looks like there is a damaged trace. Under the yellow line and the red circle needs resoldering. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

It's not a WD green drive is it? It might also be worth trying a different 80way IDE cable from a different supplier as well. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.
