So I wanted to un-gimp my recently banned (thanks M$! no wonder you doubled your thanksgiving console sales) 360. Before this most recent blow, my poor xbox was already on its last legs... RRO'd and fixed (thanks for the great tut!), fan died and replaced, hard drive crashed replaced w/ WD 120GB, and my old toshiba/samsung drive makes so much noise that every time it spins up and down my that dog runs away. This was the last straw. But I digress.
I looked high and low for a way to run Nandpro w/out having to install a windows 7 32 bit ver. or even all the way back to XP (and the driver hunt that would eventually ensue) just to read out the nand on my poor beaten and battered (but not down!) 360. Everywhere I looked I found the same thing; "run on XP or Vista 32". Even on the free60.org site (
http://www.free60.org/Reading_out_NAND) they said that it wouldn't work. They were WRONG! ...But, probably right about everything else. So in searching the interweb I came across a guy having probs running a LCD (small kind like addons for old xboxes) from a parallel port on vista due to no Port95 proggies. But apparently some smart person made his own version to be ported to windows x64 Vista (and now I can say with it working, Windows 7 x64). Anyway after that long rant here is the link!
http://www.highrez.co.uk/Downloads/InpOut32/default.htmdownload the bin files at the bottom. Extract the files and rename the InpOut32.dll that's in the "\win32" dir to DLPortIO.dll
After that place the newly renamed file wherever you extracted nandpro and then run! I am currently running and backing up my nand now. Will report back with results. (better be success dammit)
