Chapter 9: Finishing off the Softmod
Installing a Hacked Dashboard
The Softmod Installer gives you the choice of two dashboards, UnleashX and EvoX.
Once you select which dashboard you wish to use, it will ask where to install it. Now, remember that it has to match the same location you entered when installing the Softmod. So, if you selected E:\evoxdash.xbe in the Softmod install, you MUST install the dashboard to the same location.
PLEASE NOTE: PBL Users can only select to boot from E, F, and G. There is no C Drive support due to lack of space in the Gamesave.
Patch MS Dashboard
Now that your Xbox is softmodded, it’s time to put the MS Dash back on to C Drive.
When the Softmod is installed, the contents of C Drive are removed, hence why it is important to have a backup of the MS Dash before doing any modifications.
PLEASE NOTE: If you do not have the correct version of the MS Dash, you CAN turn off your Xbox, insert Auto-Installer Deluxe, and install the MS Dashboard from there (which is the version needed for the Softmod). After this go back to Chapter 5 and boot the Softmod Installer again.
What this patch does is firstly copy the files from C Drive to a temporary storage place, and then it copies the MS Dash back to C. Now, after that it grabs the files from the backup and fixes up the C Drive so it’s still softmodded, but the MS Dash is accessible via C:\msdash.xbe. All the dashboards (configured for softmods) in the SID and AID packages are configured so that they recognize this when you launch the MS Dashboard from your desired Dashboard (being UnleashX, EvoX etc.).
