Did I F***ed Up My Xbox?
« on: July 06, 2003, 07:51:00 AM »

Well I got good news and bad news.
This happend to me earlier tonight, i just wired it up and let it sit about 20 min

but,

you voided your warenty, so they SHOULDNT take it back

however, here is what might happen. I used to work at a blockbuster, and we had someone bring in a ps2 once that was "Broken out of the box" This didnt happen on my shif, but when I took a look at it later, i noticed the big VOID sticker, was gone. And the only reason why i knew about the sticker was because i have a big void ps2. So if you take off the stickers that you punched through to open your xbox, it might work.

Did you unplug the hd with the xbox turned on?  Is that what the exploit says to do?  If so, what a risk, I would never do that on anything I ever wanted to work again.  If your xbox is broken pm me and I will offer to buy it.
