The PDF is a great tool but unfortunately it doesn't work for everyone
I'm what they call a visual learner you could stick a book in front of me or a PDF
And I won't learn a thing but if you show me the same thing in a YouTube video
I get it first try I wish we had more video tutorials for modding the original Xbox
-
There are times when Xbox is on and that annoying screensaver Pop up
Is there a way to turn it off or delete it I can't stand this thing
-
where do I install these too ?
is there a video guide
-
500 GB Drive arrived today well-packaged Canada Post
The Torx Animal X splitter will arrive tomorrow
Sometime tomorrow I will up do the mod an upgrade to the 500 gig Drive
Looking forward to the challenge and the great support I've gotten from my fellow original Xbox Guys

ya for me I have that 60 terabyte server
When I am Tired of a game I could take it off via FTP .
I have a copy on the server
I am also doing some emulation but not a lot
I'm not going to be using this thing to watch videos or anything like that
because I have a media PC sitting right beside it
This is strictly for games

Lol I remember when 500gb was considered a huge overkill!!
@Onknight is that a used drive or is it new??
It's a used. drive but it's good enough for now
I didn't pay that much for it and as it is money's tight at least for a month or so
If it doesn't work I'll go the other route that you guys suggest

Forget the IDE and go for a sata and a startech ide2sata adapter. You will also need an 80wire ide cable to make it all work properly. Sounds like a lot but could be cheaper than the 500gb IDE.... if you can even find one!!!!
Already did Found A Western Digital Caviar Blue 500 GB 3.5" WD5000AAKB IDE Hard Drive 1195 on Ebay for 22.00
The reason I don't want to go with IDE to serial adapter
Is this one more thing that can break
I want to keep this as close to stock as possible
Will still adding space
This driver's lockable it will do the job
Yeah I'm limited to 500 GB
I have 60tb server like an FTP games on and off as needed
no reason to go bigger

No way man dont give up hope!!
https://www.chimericsystems.com/product/xbox-compatible-usb-drive
This is a site run by a member here, he has usb flash drives GUARANTEED xbox compatible in stock for just $6!! I order a bunch of bits from him last week and they arrived in the UK today !! Excellent service!!
Yeah I'm sorry I'm just not willing to spend any more money
Especially with the exchange rate that $6 is 10 CND plus shipping
I've just gotten to the point where I just don't want to spend another dollar
So I'm going to put the thing up on Amazon and get rid of it
I'm nearly 250.00 in and that's enough

The Action Replay/Maxdrive works perfectly to get the softmod files and exploit game saves to your console. You are not using it for a different purpose than what it was designed for at all.
It was designed for transferring games saves to and from a pc and xbox, either regular saves, downloaded hacked "cheat" saves from the AR website or even the exploited softmod saves. It doesne matter which, they are all just game saves as far as the AR/xbox are concerned.
I tried the Action Max in VR and it did work tried install windows XP and non my Computers will Boot from the CD
I have old XP but no Power cord lol

Do you have a link to the software ?

No luck
The Xbox See the Memory Card but Xplorer360.beta6 dose not
Unless it run at administrator and then I can't move the files
if I run it without administrator mode it doesn't see the card
it comes back with the an error could not find a exfat drive to open

How big are the ISO files?
If they are 6+GBs, they are ReDump format ISO's not XISOs.
ReDump disc images are to be exact duplicates of the original game disc, not just the XDVDFS files extracted from it and stored in an XISO disc image.
To extract the XDVDFS portion of a ReDump-style disc image (ISO), use XDVDMulleter Beta 10.2 or GX XGD Extract v00.10.10
Thanks I found XDVDMulleter and used it

I have used alot of virtual machines and the best one I can reccomend is vm ware. It finds all the drivers for you vs, orical's virtual box, which requires you to hunt down each and every driver to make your OS work. If necessary, if it becomes too much trouble for you I can build you a flash drive ready to go for $8. I can loaded with the mechassault save file and the modding tools to get it going.
well there a 3rd Option Remember I am in Canada

Yep other than the action replay card, that is exactly the program I used and the steps I followed. I am glad you got it working and I am happy to help.
Not Working Yet The Card Reader is still in the Mail

Looks like I don't need it after all
(1) Plug in the reader into PC
(2) Install the Memory card into the Reader
(3) Start the Xplorer360.beta6 remember to run as administrator
(4) mount the memory Card in the Xplorer360.beta6 Software
(5) Drag the files over
(6) Take Memory card into Xbox
(7) Copy the files
(8) run the game
(9) install the exploits to the Xbox
(10) Your moded
