Chapter 7: Installing Dashboards
Installing the Microsoft Dashboard
Select the Install MS Dash option from the main menu. It’s a good idea that you format C drive before installing the MS Dash, this ensures a clean install of it.
Just remember if you have a Softmod or Hacked Dash installed on C Drive that you MUST install it again before turning off your Xbox.
Installing a Hacked Dashboard
When installing your choice of dashboard you will notice there are a few options. Firstly you select which drive you want to install your dashboard to, and then you select the dashboard you want. After this you are given these 3 options:
Retail HDD (E)
Large HDD (E+F)
Larger HDD (E+F+G)
Basically the Retail HDD is the standard 8-10gb drive that comes with your Xbox, the Large HDD is a replacement drive up to 120gb, and the Larger HDD is over 120gb.
When installing a dash on a Softmodded Xbox, make sure you use the dashboards in the Install Dashboard (Softmod) as they are set up to work with the Softmodded MS dash. If you use a dashboard configured for a Modchip, you will realize that you won’t be able to boot the MS Dash again.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are using the SID 4 system, install a normal dashboard to E Drive, not a softmod one. Due to the way SID 4 is set up it won’t work any other way.
