I have opened my 360 and connected a SATA cable from my 360 Hitachi drive to my motherboard which is an Asus A8N SLI SE. And set my PCs BIOS to boot from CD and inserted the Slax Live CD when it boots from the CD I restart my PC and take the CD out and load up Windows XP but it dosent recognise the 360s DVD drive. However it does detect the 360s drive in the BIOS. Anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Very same problem - ASUS A8N-SLi.

Are you guys using the NForce4 ports or the Sil. Images 3114? I'm currently having no joy with the NFoce ports, and RAID is turned off and Ive uninstalled the NForce Drivers...

My RAID setup is on the Sil. 3114 so I can't try those...

I'm sure we'll get it figured between us... blink.gif

Just bridge the two wires on boot up and it will be recognised straight away in windows. No need to use the Slax CD... It's very easy. smile.gif

The geebee guide is really really good, but for the "wired method" id like more a 'hold my hand' guide with pictures etc, you get the drift smile.gif

If someone got that, please post them!

It might suggest purchasing the xecuter 360 connectivity kit.

Im posting a list on how i do it, maybe im forgetting / doing something wrong.


1. Boot the 360 (power from the 360, SATA connected to the motherboard (tried all 4 ports, got 2 SATA HDDs too. Switching order, disconnecting some drives does not work)

2. Booting the PC with Slax live-cd, once it hits the 'login' screen i restart my computer, take out the Slax live-cd, at this point i get 2x "Boot from CD-Rom" One is from the PC DVD drive i guess, and the other from the 360, it stops at the second "Boot from.." to get past this i have to push out the 360's tray, in and out to get it booting again.

3. Can't find the drive, not in "Device Manager", not anywhere.


I can edit that i find the 360's drive when im in the Boot screen, but a nogo in Windows.
