    My xbox (original) is softmodded. I can ftp blah blah blah. I went to sell it and thought if I deleted everything off of the one crucial drive, it would unsoftmod it. I don't remember what drive it is, i'll probably edit this later on after I figure out which 1 it is. (I did that like a year ago) Haven't touched in since, and decided like having a fun lil' project, and fix it. Any suggestions?

    Random Info I remember

    I'm pretty sure it was the one where the BIOS were stored and so were the games...i have to read some tuts to figure out which it is.

    I want to keep it softmodded now.

    I still have the evo x dash except instead of many options its just launch disc and settings.

    I can still play burned games.

    i can't seem to find and evo x ini file in my c drive nor my e drive.

    if needed I can upload screenies of my c/e drives.

    Do you still have the back up of the MS dash board and screenshots would be good.

    I don't think so, I'm uploading the screenies now. I'll edit in the link when they're finished.

    lol, I just realized the print is hard to read, let me know if you need me to re-upload them at a bigger size.

    Edit: Nvm, just zoom in once and you can see it fine.

    Insert what ever game you used to soft mod and then try running the back up to see if it works again.

    yeah, I don't really mind whether its evox, avalaunch or unleash x so, which ever is easiest. I was a noob back in the day when ibotmodz was .co.nr and now I've got to be way worse, so nothing too complicated please :D

    Download what ever dash you want from here http://www.ibotmodz....?showtopic=2897

    Then just ftp the contents of the RAR to your E drive I think, if its not e try C, pretty sure its E though.

    I tried that with my C and it didn't work, but I can't remember if I did or didn't with my E so i'll try again. Also, am I supposed to have anything in my D drive, because I don't.

    Edit: It didn't work in my E drive so I downloaded a different Evolution X Build 3935.rar file and it came with everything I need I think, but I'll probably need more help so hang in there please :D

    Using that ini requires a special skin. I can tell by the text placement.

    I don't quite understand. You can still FTP, but you want all modded content off?

    No...I did, now I don't :D

    I downloaded a different version of the Evolution X Build 3935.rar with an INI, the dash and a new bios (M7) so maybe that will fix the problem. Come to think of it, where do I put the bios folder?

    Ok, I tried the dash and the ini in the E drive and it didn't work, I'm going to try the C drive now.

    When I changed my dash I believe I put it on my E: drive. If this doesn't work I'll load up my xbox and take a screen shot.

    It came with a skins folder, and no luck in the C drive either :angry:

    Ok, I need to know exactly what you deleted. Did you select everything on your drive and delete it or just the dashboard?

    Nothing is needed in the D drive.

    Your D drive is your disk drive and it will only have stuff in it if you FTP to your xbox while there is a disk in the drive.
