    i was trying to upgrade my hardrive so i tried xboxhdm , but it didntlet me so i tried configmagic, that didnt let me either

    then i tried slayers 2.7 and i unlocked the hardisk successfully, and i used the xboxhdm and cloned the hardisk to a 40gb WD hardrive

    then i locked the xbox hdd put it in the box and it gives me error 5

    i leave it unlocked and it gives me error6
    same with the 40 gb

    what am i doing wrong?????

    you shouldnt get error 5 if it is locked and if the drive was unlocked you get error 6 because the xbox tries to unlock but it is already unlocked. are you sure that you have the eeprom?

    look on you xboxhdm disc and see if you put the eeprom in the right place. the first time i modded i put it the wrong place and couldnt lock my drive. i just had to get it in the right folder and remake the disc and i was able to lock it.
