    I putted a IDE HDD into my modded xbox, played games, listened to music... Until i managed to crash the boot file, evoxdash.xbe while trying to change dashboard to XBMC.
    Anyways,
    I plugged the HDD ( Which used to be in a computer ) into my own computer, to change the files.
    When i open My Computer, I can't find the HDD. But i can find the HDD if i go to MY Computer - Properties - Software, and open the list of all Units on my computer.
    I realy need to access the HDD.
    Can sombody help me?

    I use another language on my windows, so i don't know if My Computer and those stuff is correct, but i hope you understand :)

    sounds like you need to unlock it, for use with a pc. I dont remember exactly how to do it, but im sure google will help you a little more than I can.

    You might have to change the jumper cable to set the drive as master, slave, or cable select.
