I'm attempting to softmod a new hard drive for my existing softmodded x-box. I accidentally locked my new hard drive, with a password, that I know, but now I cannot unlock it. I have my eeprom, but I'm stuck on unlocking this drive. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm still a newbie at this stuff...

Thanks

*Bump*

Are there any tools that can help me figure out how to unlock this thing? When I run the unlock until now, it tells me that it successfully unlocked, but doesn't unlock the drive.

The DOS utilities. I need to run the hdunlock tool, then the hddisable tool? Is that what you're meaning by the 2 steps? Does the disable tool keep the unlock in place or something?

Running the disable util fixed my problem.
