View Full Version : Have I have killed my Xbox?
i must have made a mistake while updating xbmc and i have killed my xbox, well, not really killed it i suppose, i am stuck on the xbox screen with the xecuter2 at the bottom of the screen.
has anybody got any idea what i can do to remedy the problem please? i cannot ftp to the xbox anymore, i guess i need a boot dvd of some kind, where can i find one?
thank you
sollie,
you are my saviour.
as i am new to the scene (you had guessed right :) ) i feel obliged to bother you a little more and ask you if the following reasoning is correct.
i have booted from your provided cd, now i am going to ftp xbmc folder to c:\apps\ and everything should be ok. is this correct?
thanks again
some questions,
- do you have a chip, wich one?
- do you wanne use xbmc as default dasboard?
- wich dashboard is default right now?
- how big is your harddrive?
solie
i have the executer2 chip
i already use xbmc as default dash
the hard drive at the moment is only 8 megs, i will change it for 500 meg one soon.
thank you

wow! thats a pretty big hdd... ???
i'm guessing you meant gb.
the normal drives for \apps\ would be e: or f:, however it doesn't matter where xbmc is stored as long as the $home directory is configured within the xboxmediacenter.xml
also as you are using the xecuter2 chip and i'm guessing the xecuter bios then default.xbe that comes with xbmc should be renamed evoxdash.xbe and stored in the root of the c:\ with xboxmediacenter.xml
thanks for your answer 3x3cut10n3r, thats was the reason for asking the questions.

i made the same mistake..... there seems to have been some medicine in the pm mentioned? would it be possible re-install xbmc without loosing all data on the hd?
