Error 21

soft

 

well, i would just format that hard drive and rebuild it, but its odd, your having no problem unlocking your hdd's!

 

lol im sorry....i wish i could help i just did it to 3 diffrent xboxes...and that is the only one that gave me problems..i gave up to night. im waiting for the pro to get on tommrow...

 

so did you happen to look in my computer when you hooked it up to your pc?

 

ya it was there...forget where but it showed it up

 

Hello. I tried hotswap many times and it didn't work. I didn't everything as said. I finally got the PC to see my HD with Paragon Disk Manager but I can't open it. All the rest of the programs (explorer 360) and such won't even find my HD. HELP!

 

so it shows up in my computer? but you dont know where though? lol

 

well, i am in the same boat, when i do it, and open up system manager, it shows the hard drive though! did you see it in there?

 

i have a thought, been reading some more tuts, what if i flash the tsop on the motherboard? will this work in anyway possible?

 

there must be a way to use my other softmodded xbox to fix the hard drive of the other xbox somehow, they were both softmodded using the same programs, only thing, i only backed up the one that is still working so i do have that eeprom.bin file, go figure!

 

well, i am off now, but will be back in about 8 hours, hopefully some new insight on this problem, see, i am the type of guy that really hates giving up and if this can be done, i am sure it will help others with the same problems!

 

man, heres another thought, what if i bought a mod chip, put it in my own xbox instead of softmodded it, it is softmodded now, would i be able to unlock this non working hard drive then be able to go from there? would i be able to put the soft mod back on, then shove it back in other box and would it then lock the hard drive back with the eprom password then?

but am still wondering about my last post too!

im sorry to hear that man but i dont know....i did it and it works...could you try another pc?

 

sesko
i saw you said that you changed the cable select to master and slave. Did you try using 1 ide for your pc hard drive & a different ide cable for your xbox hard drive? thats how i done it and had no problems. other than that I am at a loss as to why this is not showing up on your pc.

 

i just switched teh cables that it....but now on my xbox hdd its only showing 0-3 partions

 

Hi all,
a lot of things are going on here.
What is next?

 

shinnster, yes i tried it numerous ways with ide cables, jumper settings, like i said, system manager recognizes it and says its enabled and working properly, but xplorer360 doesnt recognize it, says no fatx drives found.

Do you have any knowledge about tsop flash?

Also, is there a way to use my working softmod xbox to get this hard drive working!

 

hmm which windows do you guys have?

 

xp pro sp2
