Ijust installed a 160gd hard drive, after getting it working, i reinstalled the softmod, which sees the F as 144Gbs, but XBMC only sees it as 123GB, plus the E being 4.5GBs, i only have 127.5GBs, anyone know how to fix this?

edit: as you can see, we can't post to it from here. googling xbpartitioner should yield some good results though

XBpartitioner is not going to help you. You need to update to a newer Xbox BIOS which supports LBA48 addressing, now DO NOT ask us where to get a such BIOS, instead go to xbox-scene.com (http://www.xbox-scene.com) or search using Google.

Everything that i had searched and found, had to do with actual mod chips and changing the bios version, but after a few hours i decided to reinstall the actual soft mod and i installed the wrong version, i needed the .60 version, and i thought the .67 version was newer so it supported newer, larger drives.
