    Dumb Question but can the box boot any games at all? , reason i'm asking is because a game like Forza will update Xbox live and put it back to factory like settings .. If He deleted the eeprom , He's screwed .

    Nah no games booted BUT i did figure it out. I put a solderless chip in and booted slayers. then i took out the chip and redid it without the format features. thank you for the reply.
