Hi im a noobie and im usually wrong about xbox stuff :o

but im just guessing that u need to edit the evox.ini file because ur M$ dashboard link is probably pointing towards evox again.

yah, open the evox.ini file and make sure t points to the correct file (xboxdash.xbe, or msxboxdash.xbe if you renamed it.)

I think you still need to edit your evox.ini so that your ms dash link actually points to "msxboxdash.xbe"

Does it look like this in ur evox.ini?
MSDashBoard = "c:\msxboxdash.xbe"

i think i know whats happened. i think that as i was replacing and renaming the files do sort evox out i must of renamed the evox xbe to msxboxdash and copied it again to xboxdash therefore it wud come up with it when i clicked msxboxdash wudent it. Thats mean i need to find the orginal Xbox dash xbe from sumwhere?

Try putting a real noncopied music cd in your drive and see what it does. I remember having similar problems and doing that once fixed it.



Good luck.

Dunno, I guess you gotta find that original dash somewhere.
