Each drive has a different password calculated from the EEProm serial number and the drive's serial number.

Did you put the hdd back into xboxhdm to see if it would unlock? You obviously have the wrong eeprom.bin somehow. What kind of hdd are you using?

 

Yeah i put the hard drive back in computer to try to unlock hard drive and it unlocked  smile.gif.. I'm using a WesternDigital: WD2000JB-00KFA0 Model .  P.S. To get my Upgraded HD to work I need the orignal EPPROM and password right ?  , thats where I'm stumped :/  P.S. More info , My Xbox was made 5-28-05 so i think its a v1.6 B .. dont know if you need this info but I put it here incase

I have the same hard drive and the first time I tried it also did not work. What softmod do you have? Do you have all the files backed up on your pc?



Well i used the SplinterCell exploit with Auto installer deluxe and used UnleashX and Krazeys/Ndure dual boot for dash ... And i don't have the C :Drive and  E: Drive backed up anymore for use with Xhdm, I can back it up quick thou ...Nothing really on my xbox now , i left it blank , just UnleashX on it now , no Apps

C, E because I want you to make a new Xboxhdm iso. Also, since I'm not familiar with ConfigMagic, I would like you to get your eeprom again. Check for a folder in C named UDATA.



OK, I see a folder named UDATA in the E folder

Your eeprom.bin should be in there, probably in another folder. Put that one in linux eeprom folder.



OK, did that .. now make a new ISO and Burn it ?
