Something that concerns me is that as I have a Japanese Xbox, Config magic reports the region as "UNKNOWN - region 2".

I have made a backup and moved it to the /Data folder for config magic (just in case) but I wonder if config magic really understands this version?

If it displays everything else correctly, then just edit the region to your region.

So if I had to, I'd type "UNKNOWN" into config magic?. Don't you think that CM is just displaying "UNKNOWN" because it does not understand the actual info in the eeprom file?. It is supposed to say NTSC-J... I bet that the CM people just never had a chance to test it on an NTSC-J machine.

Is this not worthy of a PIN?

you need to boot evox from a cd and restore your old eeprom, then unlock your hard drive.
After that, you can lock it with your new eeprom.

The EEPROM that your HD was locked with doesn't match the EEPROM on your Xbox's motherboard.

So, did you switch hard drives?

Ok ... for my very first post <trumpets sounding> I've got a problem. After carefully following the tutorial (a thousand thanks shanafan), everything changed correctly in config magic. After locking the hd and powering down, turning off the chip, and booting to M$ dash, i got hit with the network troubleshooter. Everything checked out, but it said it was unable to connect to live. I also noticed that the S/N didn't show up in the troubleshooter. But its displayed in config magic. What went wrong?

I have retried this 3 times, and each time I load my old EEPROM up, the S/N is displayed. But then I load the new one, it does not. Does this indicate that the EEPROM is bad?

You can lock your HD using the new version of EvolutionX, 3921. Or, you can lock it using Configmagic.

What about a backup?

by backup i meant that the eeprom info and hdd key info in the backup file need to be placed somewhere on the hdd in a specific folder. This was the first time i ever changed my eeprom and i dont know why it locked my drive and kept me from being able to use it but it did.

But it works again but i have not loced it i was wondering if it aotu configures it for you or if the info does not need to be on the drive at all. even though i thought it had to be

Well I did a little edit. I was meaning the unbanned EEPROM from the Xbox it is on. I hope the new edit makes it a little more clear wink.gif
