Ugh, I hope this can be fixed...

I used Slayer's 2.6 on my softmodded box, formatted the C: drive and "restored" the original Msdash to it, because I wanted to install Blackwar's. Problem is, now it will *not* not read my MechAssualt disc (NTSC-J), and thus I cannot load Blackwar's installer, which is already on my E: drive. It gives me the message "Invalid Game Region" sad.gif

Any solutions? Am I screwed? uhh.gif

let me guess, you are using the UDE2 and changed the xbe region on your xbox.

1) use newer exploits.

2) don't use slayers on a softmodded xbox, especially stuff relating to the C drive.

you will have to reinstall the exploit without the exploitable game, either unlock the drive or hotswap, then reinstall.

Use xboxhdm to put a basic uxe setup on your hdd.. Then run an installer manually and correct the stock C: files on the shadowc after installation..

Sorry, no idea what was used. How do I find out?

Can you give some suggestions?

Too late now unfortunately... i had been doing a bit of reading around x-s and it seemed slayers was ideal for reverting a C: back to its original state. guess i forgot about the region bit...

Looks like my only option is to take the HD out?

you don't need an installer, just assemble the necessary exploit files and copy them over in xboxhdm.

true... once I hook it up with xboxhdm I can just copy the stuff 'assembled' onto C: yeah? guess the hard part is figuring what files to be 'assembled'.. e.g. blackwar's installer..

OK I got UXE Complete 0.2.1... I read the readme and know that I have to run the two batch files, etc. Then I am going to copy everything inside "UXE-C-REPLACE" onto my xbox's C drive.

But before I do that, when I boot up xboxhdm I'm going to have only the xbox hd connected, right? Can I put the package onto the CD iso (xboxhdm) as well, otherwise I don't know how I would transfer it over...

btw, there's NO WAY to fix this without opening up the box? unsure.gif

OK, I read through most of the xboxhdm for dummies thread (which absolutely rocks btw) and I'm ready to try building a spare 20gig I have here at work.

I still want to revert C: to STOCK, but since I bought my xbox pre-softmodded, the only backup of C I have is when it was in a modded state. Where can I find stock C files that fit my xbox's region?
