check the flash protect is not set to on if you have the X3 chip and the switcher are on the frount of xbox its the bottom switch set it to the left.
If you are going to flash it with x3 bios the switcher should be on on off off off top to bottom. and if you get the bios working DO NOT SET THE PASSWORD IN THE BIOS IT HAS ABUG AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO BOOTUP YOUR XBOX

I guess I can't play my backups because I havn't installed a dashboard yet, so I tryed to connect via FTP using a crossover cable, I was able to do so but I can't copy the files to the HD I keep getting this error and after that the file won't copy , does anybody know what I have to do now ?

ok get your hands on auto installer delux dvd or the slayer evox installer you can find them at #xbins or off bittorront site
you just have to put it in to your xbox dvd tray restart xbox then install the dash no ftping and if i was you use flashftp as it a lot easyer to use and if you go to www.xboxscene.com and look in tutorials you wil l find how to use #xbins and ftp flash.

thanks I got the ftp working, I used flashFXP instead of cuteftp even though cute ftp is cuter than flashFXP, I was able to install evolutionx and I had 1 out of my 4 backup games working :( , here is another newbie question, is it possible to loan games from the e drive ?
