Hello all and thank you for reading. I am very new to all this but have found a new hobby.

I bought a softmodded XBox (with dead HDD) which i just finished building a eeprom reader for and getting my keys. I then created a new harddrive.

My problem is the xbox only sees 137gigs of the 500. I have looked at the bios in XBtool (Which i got from the backup folder) and the bios i have says its "X2 4076.02 (1.00.4976.02)"

I am curious, do i just load my old bios into XBtools, check the LBA48 box and resave it. Then reflash it with evox? If so is it resaved as 256k or 1024?

Or am i completely off base.

Thank you all in advance for your support.

If it's softmodded then it isn't using that BIOS - it's the softmod that has to support LBA48. Which softmod did you use?

I just created the hdd from a working xbox's files with xboxhdm.
The "softmod" i suppose was already in place since both boxes were the same.

That doesn't help at all. Which softmod was used on the Xbox you copied the files from?

Easiest way: by remembering how you did the first softmod......

My apologies. I purchased them and never did any modding myself in the first place.

1 worked fine.
1 hard drive was cooked.

Son plays games on working one.
I played for fun with broken one.

Built eeprom reader.
Got eeprom.
Copied files from working box's C & E.
Xboxhdm onto new hard drive with eeprom.
Booted box.
Reads 129 gigs on 500gig drive.

I am not sure how to answer your question but I am trying.

OK.

Which dashboard are you using?

Which folders do you have on the C partition?

Which files do you have in the root of the C partition?

Do you have either of the folders E:\Apps\Extras\ or E:\ndts\?

That's an old softmod with none of the features you'd expect in a new one - like shadow C, virtual eeprom, etc.

Grab a copy of HeXEn 0.99B11-22 or CASH v1.1, and use that to upgrade your softmod to Krayzie 1.1.1.
