100% with you on the modchip.

It's not my xbox, there's a guy in my building that knows I'm good with computers and stuff, and knows I have a modded xbox. He literally knocked on my door, and dumped the thing off on me. He says, "I'll pay you for it", so I'm like,.. uhh, ok then, then he said $10 or $20... I was like,... sigh. *facepalm*

Anyway, what you're saying is that I don't technically don't need to worry about the eeprom right off the bat? I can install the dash/mod and just leave it at that? Without re-locking the HDD? The eeprom is just a failsafe?

I think that's the most question marks I've ever had in a post before.

tnx
