RE: RE: XBOX Softmod - there *IS* a god, - and he effing hates me!



I got a little bit further... - It seems the AR didn't like my main PC
-
possibly because it's running 64-bit XP? - although everything
"appeared" to be functioning correctly, the memcard never
appeared in
the AR software.

I tried it on another (32bit) laptop, and eventually, it worked. - Seems
as though it's necessary to remove & reinsert the memcard with the AR
software already running so that it sees the insert notification or
something...

So now I've done the exploit, and I have the EvoX dash running. - I've
just completed changing the IP settings on the XBOX to suit my LAN, so
now I should be able to FTP to it...

As for the spare USB key, - that has already been thrown out of an
upstairs window onto the concrete below in a fit of rage!... :-)

Cheers.

Can't help with the Action Replay, but you could try the HP USB Disk
Storage
Format Tool to try and fix your non-working USB memory stick.

AAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Even this process, which is supposed to be so ***ing simple is annoying
the t*ts off me...

First off, I have an Action Replay, - but can I get Windows to recognise
the memory card as something it can write to? - can I b*ll**ks - I've
installed the Action Replay software, and it runs just fine, but wont
allow me to copy anything to the memory device. It appears in Windows
device manager as an unpartitioned 8MB device, - but I'm fairly sure I
shouldn't need to prepare it with windows... - first the manual doesn't
say anything about that, & secondly, I would imagine that it won't work
in the AR or the XBOX if I do?....

Fine, - give up on that I thought, - I also have a home-brew XBOX-USB
cable lent to me by another UKHAer, -- and previously used and stated to
be working... I also have (had) a "spare" 1GB USB key... So I
dropped
the gamesave files on the key, and it connected to the XBOX, - which
promptly said that my memory device was invalid or something, and it has
been erased... ARGH! - that USB key now appears to be *absolutely*
F**ked - none of my Windows machines will revive it, - disk management
will NOT allow it to be repartitioned or formatted, - any attempt to use
the stick results in a hardware error message... - Thanks a bunch
XBOX....

This whole bloody XBOX mod business is driving me spare! - I know how to
follow a simple set of instructions, and I'm doing so painstakingly
carefully. Even then, absolutely every single step is a battle...

GRRRRRR
