Does anyone know if their is a way to downgrade the M$ dashboard so a soft mod hack can be utilized? I read something about changing the x.t.f. extension in some programming to x.f.t. Does this even pertain to what im talking about, and if not could there be other ways to downgrade the M$ dashboard?

I am fairly sure that if you use Krayzies installer you don't need to downgrade the dash. I think that is only for some of the older exploits.

yeah that was for exploits from a long long time ago in a galaxy far away....
no need anymore to downgrade or change xtf to xft
