original xbox question

[GRASSASS]

hi guys sorry to drag up old memories, .

well i have an old xbox i changed the harddrive to a big 1 (years pass) now i tried to put the original 1 back in and have lost the password ? i am getting FRAG (FLASHING RED AND GREEN do you remember this) error 6 the harddrive is locked.
i was wondering if you guys can help getting this girl back to her glory days and help me unlock the hdd ???

my pc is SATA and the old drive is IDE so (for now) i can not do it in my pc. is there another way that will stop me buying an IDEtoSATA CONVERTER ?

How is the box modded? Softmod or chip? If my memory serves me correct, if the original hdd is locked, it shouldn't matter because in it's original state, it should be locked anyway. But at any rate, run the Evox dash board with the hdd that works installed and do an eeprom backup. One of the things you should get out of this backup is the hdd key. That should get you to where you can unlock it.

The original drive may have went dead from not being used or something. Thing is, even though the drive was locked, the xbox should have been able to unlock it if it was the same xbox that the drive came out of. Which is why I think something may have happened to the drive.
