{: Actually, from what I've read, Nknave's is maybe better (but it's still mostly a subset of kingroach's Ndure 3.0 installer)... :}

Great!

Thanks for the info guys! I'll definitely have a look into Kingroache's installer. The reason I want to test Krayzie's installer is that I'm kinda fed up with modding so many noob xboxes. I would just want to give them the game and memory card with the installer and let them do it themselves. I noticed by practice that wasn't a good idea with SID

BTW, thanks for the tip about Qwix! I was using c-xbox tool for now, but it's kinda buggy and it lacks certain handy features (like keeping track of different xbox connections). I hope it works with unleashx's boost mode too, but I guess that's just the same as avalaunche's...

Tried this autoinstaller today, first time ever using a softmod and I must say I'm extremely impressed. I haven't softmodded in years, since late evenings of hex editing dash files and this is so much easier. Thanks Krayzie!

can anyone direct me to WHERE in xbins i can get this, I have looked in so many places and i cant find it.

I dont know a direct location, just maybe the first folder or 2.

I've recently modded a couple friend's xboxs using Krazie's installer. My friend's have accounts on Live and now they can't seem to connect anymore.... I thought this mod worked with XBLive? If we start the box into retail mode it shows the live screen and that there are a number of friends online. Try to access any menues and we get the circle thing at the bottom of the screen and then everything goes black. Try to play a game on live and it just says could not connect to xbox Live at this time....

Any clues?

when mod is active you canno connect to live.
with dual retail mode you cannot enter live menu or network settings. if settings need to be changed read the readme

@ A Murder of Crows

Is the drive that you are saving your eeprom info to the virtual drive? If it is then you first need to run a bfm bios in order to save it on the real drive and not the virtual one. I haven't used this installer but for manual installs when compiling yourself into a completely hidden c this can be the case.



@ krayzie

Why has your sig changed to no longer include the completely hidden c and the other things?

people dohn't read it anyways. The market now seems only interested in the easy way. the time people wanted to do things manually is way gone. You can find the info on the tutorials topic though.

The forum search hasn't worked for a while and I didn't see it under tutorials. A lot of these options people want could be theirs if they did it the manual way.

Just a note to say I tried this for the first time a few days ago and it worked phenomenally well! The hardest part was figuring out how to copy the saves from my chipped xbox to the memory card. (Didn't realize you had to d-pad over to the actual save, kept trying to select the "container".)

I'm super impressed at the work that went into this. The whole step-by-step GUI install procedure is amazingly simple and well-done. Kudos!



most games i'm aware of access the disk pretty much constantly. but the real problem with your idea is that once the game xbe was loaded into memory, the whole smb thing would instantly stop working, because the smb client would have to be part of the dashboard code, and the xbox cannot run two processes simultaneously. basically it's impossible.

Just wondering if there are any points during the install of the Ndure softmod where it could kill the xbox if the power went out? I ask because it is presently thunderstorming here and a friend is bring over her xbox for me to mod later on

you have to make a backup as the first option in the menu, so if anything did go wrong changing the dash youd still be able to get back to the exploit through your retail game to restore it

i think thats rght, im still a newb too

hey noob here.....anwyays whats the difference between the UDE and your UXE installer? i really want to know, so i can have the best results with it..... thx

just wondering... k ndure inst. still ver 1.0 ???

yup... 1.1 is still a very very early beta and and needs a lot of work.

cool...

thnx for the reply

hi, thanks for making this package, very useful, was able to soft mod a new xbox with it, but having one problem, for some reason the f drive does not have any space allocated to it, i am sure there are a couple of GBs somewhere not allocated.... any idea? F drive is enabled on the dashboard, and yes i chose the option to enable f drive.... is there a command or program i could use that could allocate the left over GBs to the f drive without deleting anything of the other drives? thanks

if its a stock drive, there will be no left over space, unless its a seagate, then you'll have 2gbs on F use the format menu in unleashX to gain it, if using evox, you'll need to add the command to the ini file most likely.

Is there a tutorial or instructions someplace about removing this software?

I used this exploit and have UnleashedX running. I have a backup of the eeprom stored on another computer. I haven't made a recovery CD though.

What do I do to remove the mod and return the XBox to the stock condition.

(this question should probably go in N00b eh?

reload the save again and select it from the menu.

can you say, when you are ready to release it? what are the main differences?

greetings, moviecut

Well without going into detail some things would be like various install options like upgrade from 1.0 (no need to uninstall first), a minimum install (for those that don't know how to prepare the setup prior to the install and don't want the msdash features), some fuckms options to toggle between dual msdash and dual live dash and some customisation options. (and offcourse nkpatcher and vga patches updated)

I'm not going to say when it's done but I'm hoping to release it early next year

damn krayzie, you the man.... krayzie fool

ok thanks daddyj... yeh the hard drive is stock, not sure what make it is as i have not opened the box and probably won't...

u dont have to open, evox & unleashx's settings menu will show type.

Krayzie just wanted to say wonderful job on Ndure ....def the best yet. My only question is about the LED defaulting to orange in the soft-modded state. The color bothers me and I am able to change it in the UnleashX settings but it is not permanent, as soon as I turn the box off and reboot it goes right back to orange. Is there any other way to get rid of the orange LED. I dont use LIVE at all if thats a conselation. But again love Ndure just bothered by the Orange LED.

You can use a dash that sets the led to yout likings as main dash (such as unleash X or xbmc). The next version has options to set the led to any of the colors your like.

ok i have had this installer for awhile now and yesterday my brother hit restore ms dash and now when i boot up it wont go to the unleash x menu or ms dash, it just stays as a black screen. I tried to reinstall but it says cannot rename. and it will only stay on the first unleash x screen for about 10 second then it reboots the game. i cant recopy the save because i cant get to either menu. any1 know wat to do.
it still plays retail games though

where do i download

I just used your installer and my new Xbox and i'm tipping my hat in your direction Krayzie

As soon as I loaded the save game it was apparent that a lot of time went into creating this installer and it's a credit to your good self and the others involved in it's creation. I've installed many hardware mods but I had to try a softmod on the new system and they can't get any easier to use than this!!

Thanks again

When I ran the Ndure installer, my Xbox was using a normal 4:3 TV. I now have it hooked up to a 16:9 projector but I can't get Xbox games (backup nor original) to run in 16:9 mode. I am using the HD video cable (component video out of xbox into projector component input). I ran the MS Dash app and set the video mode to widescreen, and the dash shows up in 16:9, but games switch back out of wide mode and into 4:3. I wonder if this has something to do with the "shadow c" or "virtual eeprom" features of Ndure. Is there a way to override this and get true 16:9 support in games?

There should be no problems. The virtual eeprom keeps the settings. widescreen works fine here via component input

i get widescreen just fine in the msdash and in xbmc, but it switches out when i run a game (and yes i double checked that these games support 16:9).

is there a way to see what's in the "virtual" eeprom vs the real one? or copy one to the other?

if i use your installer to switch back to a "retail" state will i have just one eeprom? i can't think why else it wouldn't go widescreen in games unless the dash is not writing to the same eeprom that the games are reading from.

Hey, I recently insalled a 320 gb HD into my Xbox and used Krayzie's UXE exploit for MA.
I used XBOXHDM 1.9 to lock it and everything.
I went into my system settings from the dashboard and the free space on the F drive read 129 gb, C: 341 megabytes, E: 3 gigabytes.
I did the second option when installing, .67 or whatever.
How can I get my 320 gigabytes?

use your dash to format G and enable it.

Did that.
Shows 0 space.

i have the splinter cell exploit. and i've used it twice before. now i try to install it on my friend's xbox and it doesn't work. it goes to a black screen after i press "checkpoints" on the splinter cell menu. he has the 5960 dashboard. his kernel is something liek 5838 (or something similar). maybe that has something to do with it?

Make sure he has no other gamesaves for Splinter Cell.
Only the LINUX save should be there.
--------------------------------------------------
How can I fix my problem?
I installed a 320gb HD.
I'm using the evoX dashboard and when I go into settings free space for F is 126.612.127.744 [I just uploaded about 2-3gbs worth of stuff in there.] I get the same amount of free space when I FTP into my Xbox.
G Drive shows 0. I enabled it from System Settings.

When I load through the Gamesave exploit, which is used to install the mod, free space on the F drive shows as 240.339.63 MB
I enabled the G drive, restarted and formated the G drive, but I get 0. It doesn't even show up on the screen.

how did you format G?

I loaded the gamesave, went to Extras, Format Options and picked format G and clicked ok.
It appeared as nothing happened.

Yeah the format G function from the UXE installer is no good. You need to format using slayers or evox ftp or something

When I try to boot with my disk tray open, a black screen appears, so I'm assuming I don't have an original dash on my box. What path is the original dash supposed to be under. I tried restoring the ms dash from the installer save, but there was a batch error. If I replace the original .xbe file, would that solve my problem or do I have to put more original files (fonts folder)?? on my xbox? Thank you.

The original Dashboard is in the C drive.
You should be able to get it at the usual place, FTP into your Xbox and copy the files to the C drive.

that's the only save there. sometimes i get an error that says the memory card isn't working properly and it ereases it.

Could someone who has a softmodded box with Krayzie's Ndure Installer (I have UnleashX installed) and a retail dual boot, please contact me with some pictures of their C drive (or whatever partition the original ms dash and supporting folders are stored in) because I need to compare my folders and files to that of a working retail dual boot box. Thanks.

I am having a problem with my harddrive size in evox. On the Ndure install menu, the F drive shows 144 gigs but when I actually boot to evox, it only gives me 123gb. I tried to enable G and format using FTP but that didn't work. What other options do I have to make the 160gb drive work (used the .67 method to install)? Could it be a bios problem? I have a modchip on this xbox so I can login to the drive without using this hack. (modchip works about 1/2 the time).

Thank you!!!!

when your in evox you should format and enable G and it should work

Hey Krazie,
I read over at ** Links to Xbox Warez and Torrents ** that they have an installer that uses Nkpatcher 11... I thought 10 was the latest... Will you be using 11 in your next installer release?

Definately looking forward to the new version

just curiosity...
how did you made the installer? assembly?
