@Ging3rguyYeah, that was initially my problem. I copied over the saves like my xbox wasn't modded or anything, but half of my saves (like Mafia) didn't allow me to copy the save. No idea why, but I had a few that wouldn't let me. I learned the whole ftp thing last night and set it all up. At first it worked no problem, then it quit working for no reason at all. Ugh, I really hate networking. Anyway, this morning I just shoved Hexin back in and used those settings without booting to a dashboard, and that is working really well. As for my boot times, I noticed that I installed the dashboard to the F directory, so I'm going to move it to the C and see if it speeds things up. @Magicaldave, @KaosEngineer: thank you guys so much for your help. I think everything is working perfectly now! XD

Nah, I'm using an 80 wire. Most of the 40 wire ones are dryrotted so they snap when you try to remove them. Maybe it's just my climate, but idk. Anyway, I'm using all 80 wire ones now.

@KaosEngineerI've used a few different ones, as I bought 10 of them. @MagicaldaveThe drive set up wasn't bad. I used the Hexin2019 disc and used chimp to set up my partitions. I did it from scratch and did not clone a drive. I installed most of the apps on the disc, so have a few dashboards to choose from. But everything is in the default folders, as I didn't really care where stuff got installed. I did install all the hexen stuff to the first 5g partition though. I can't recall the drive letter. If I've done something dumb or wrong, it shouldn't be too much of a problem to redo my sdd, as all I have on there are my copied game saves and my games I've ripped. I haven't learned how to ftp yet, so that is the next project to try to learn to do tonight. I still have 3 more mod chips, so it shouldn't be a problem to mod my 1.0 to ftp that drive as well. Much to do

Thank you, you've been awesome. ...and yeah, I know of MrMario. I've followed lots of his tutorials So far, I've modded a few xboxes, because I've had bad caps or whatever with a few of them, so my knowledge has increased quite a bit, as well as my soldering skills. As far as I can tell, it's easier for me to hard mod my consoles, because A) soldering is really simple with the xt, and 2) Splinter Cell is pretty much my favorite game. So that puts quite a hindrance on the soft mod route I've really been wanting to check out the rocky5 mod, so I guess this can be my excuse to do it BTW, in all my years of using forums, this is the first time I've actually gotten an answer to anything. Either someone suggests power cycling, or I just get a troll answer. Again, you've been awesome. Thank you so much for the links too!!! I'll be sure to not delete my dash and check out the font suggestion. I have some work ahead of me XD

Thank you so much for your reply. I'll have to find some tutorials on modding a 1.0 One problem I'm having is how long it's taking for my ssd to boot. Sometimes I have to restart my box 3/4 to get it to boot. I've seen mention of moving the dashboard, but what I've seen in the forums leaves out exactly how to do this? Is there a guide somewhere that I'm missing? Thank you again!

Hello everyone, I'm new here, so of course have questions. I recently installed an aladdinxt to a 1.6 console with a 2tb sdd upgrade. My question is, is there a way to retrieve my saved data from my old 1.0 console? I know you can transfer a lot of things normally, but some stuff doesn't give you an option to copy. My 1.0 box is not modded. I also have some dlc from the old xbox live on there, that I'd like to retrieve, but have no idea how. thanks everyone for your feedback.
