Does anybody know if Frosty's dual boot vga requires a fully assembled DVD drive to work.

I know that on a normal softmod you can break down the dvd drive down to the chip board, removing all of the mechanical parts and fool the xbox motherboard on bootup.

Running Xbox W/O DVD Drive


For some reason after installing Frosty's dual boot vga, and doing the DVD hack, it will no longer boot. I had to fully assemble the drive in order for it to work. I'm not sure what that program is checking for.

Any ideas....

Xbox Version: v1.1
360 version: unknown
The credits of Frosty's vga softmod mentions UDE2 so I assume it uses this font exploit.

Ndure + Nkpatcher have vga support too. See this: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=656831 and http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=664672

You might have better luck with the dvd drive hack then. But I cannot guarantee it though since I have no idea why Frosty's mod behaves that way.

Ok thx.

After reading the threads it seems like Frosty's install is a little cleaner and easier to apply.

I've never tried the NDURE or NKPatcher. I guess i'll attempt it one of these days and see what happens.

Thanks for the reply.
