The HDD needs to be unlocked. Unlock the HDD with the V1.6, install in the V1.0. Then relock.

I think your boned.


If you used config magic to lock the HDD you could but without that machine running a hacked bios you're not going to get it unlocked.

at 1 point when i was trying to get the chip to work in the 1.6 i got it to boot to the flashbios screen and unlocked/locked the chip a few times when i was screwing around trying to get it to work. does this give me any hope?
