Hi i have just brought another xbox hard drive because my old one wouldn't load games or the dashboard so I had nothing to restore it from. The guy I brought it from said it worked fine. "It would work in my xbox" well so he said! it comes up with error code 6 (cannot unlock hard drive) I have heard in other places I need software to get them to work together (mother board and hdd)? is this true and if so where can I get it? With out using mod chips! I searched but could not find any one else with the same problem! Thanks for taking the time to read this Gunmetald
You cannot swap a hard drive from one xbox to another in that manner. You will need to get the EEPROM of the other/old hdd and so it can be used on the new hdd. These links should help you: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/lofiversion/index.php/t323188.html http://dwl.xbox-scene.com/~xbox/xbox-scene...e/hddunlock.zip
man uniique thankz for helping xbox noobs like me, I see that your hitting off the xbox subject. It use to be pimpdang but where did he go? well anyway i just wanted to say thanks for help. Sorry let's get back to the subject.
You're welcome. PimpDawg is my boy and he's still around. He's maintaining his own forum as well. The guy works hard. If you've been helped all I can ask is that you pass it on.
