[EricCamper]

Well....I have a buddy that screwed his hard drive.....HE formatted when he had NO CLUE what to do... lol Anyways...I have an old box that has the Xenium Ice Solderless chip installed and I used to use that to upgrade hard drives...anyways.....

I took the SCREWED drive and hooked in as a SLAVE took the dvd drive out....etc...etc.... and go through the wizard and I get an error has occurred EVERY TIME.....Now I have done this before and it worked fine.....DO I have to switch the jumper on my GOOD hard drive or just set the BAD one to slave......ANy help is appreicated

I would suggest that you take his hdd into your xbox without your own in it and run an installer disc. SlaYers or AutoInstaller Deluxe or something like that so that it gets a clean install and not one from your xbox just to be safe.

SO I take any old hard drive or his screwed up one and put it my GOOD xbox with the ICE chip? Then how do I run the slayers.....I assume that I still boot up the os from ICE....or no?? never went this route....

Take his formatted drive, put it in your good xbox and run SlaYers. You have the BIOS on the chip so it will boot the disc if there is a disc in the drive when you start the xbox.

So insert SlaYers and do all the installations...
