Hi! This is the first time I flash a Xbox 360 DVD-drive (Samsung MS28). So far, I installed the SATA chip in the computer, and was able to create a bootable USB flash drive using iPrep 008 and iXtreme 1.5. When I try to boot using the USB drive (Windows XP SP2), it simply doesn't work.
Here's what I do: I turn on the computer, then hold F8 to access the boot menu. I select "Cardreader", which is the USB flash drive I use with iXtreme installed on it. Then, it simply boots Windows XP like normal, without iPrep showing up. Do I have to plug the DVD drive of the Xbox to the computer before I boot? Because I try to boot the computer before I plug the 360 drive, but I don't think that it really matters. I tried with 2 different USB flash drives, without success.
Thanks for helping me out!!
