Strange Goings On

So I have a crystal xbox, softmodded with what I believe to be a xecutr2 bios. It plays games from drive and disk. It won't allow me to clone the drive or boot up any hexen disk. After cloning the drive says it is locked in chimp but will not boot, it says error 13 unable to boot dash and Hexen just sits there, I know it takes a while to load have left it for half an hour but just sits with the led flashing red and the screen blank. Any one have any ideas (it does boot a copy of auto installerv1.01).

Thanks.

If it boots the AID disk and not the Hexen then I would say it's the DVD Disk at fault.

Are you sure the Xbox was/is not hard modded(Chipped/TSOP flash)? 

What program are you using to try and clone the disk with?

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

If it is using a X2 BIOS it is not a softmod. Possibly a TSOP.

If the disc being used was on an incompatible media type then it would explain the disc boot problem. Could also be instead that the HeXEn disc wasn't cold booted.

If it is hardmodded and he used the Chimp softmod options that would also explain why the clone HDD does not boot. It is probably looking for the dash C:\xboxdash.xbe when it is most likely now E:\something.xbe.

Only guesses but I think it fits the evidence provided. 

FTP access possible?

It must be hardmodded because all of the crystal xbox consoles I am aware of are 1.6 where TSOP flashing is unavailable. As far as the rest of the issue he is having, I have no clue.
