First post so be kind

Hi all,

Its my first post so you have to be kind

Well all my hard work has just gone down the drain, I had managed to softmod my lads xbox and even put on DVD2xbox and all was working well.

I then decided to upgrade the HDD to a larger one, I must have done something wrong because while using xboxhdm I managed to 'fry' the hard drive. Xboxhdm wont even recognise it and when I turn it on it goes to the multi language error message screen.

So is there anything I can do? I used xboxhdm to build a new HDD but the xbox doesn't recognise it at all.

Cheers Rob

getting this error code

9 - kernel - HDD parameters (PIO/DMA/or size {debug}, certain size minimum is required for debug)

Not very common error, please try another harddisk.

Maybe the HDD is too big. I don't really have any knowledge of this, but who knows this may be it.

The HDD is fine (I checked the list) Its because I hadn't 'locked' the drive. The problem is XBOXHDM isn't letting me lock the drive no matter what I do and how many time I put in the password

Well, I don't know what it would be, but I got a link that might help...
