Shadow C meant the original xbox dash was left on it and some space was taken for a new 'C drive' to have the hacked/alternative dashes put on it. Virtual EEPROM is much along the same concept but for EEPROM (a chip that holds a small amount of data, data needed for the xbox to boot if you have just got a softmod on it).

Every xbox has it's own individual eeprom so that's why it's so important to back them up and not lose them. Oct 15, 2014 - 10 min - Uploaded by Slot1GamerDownload: Where do I get the original xbox dashboard files.I am aware that you can update an xbox 1.6 eeprom with configmagic.
My question is how does it work? I always thought that the xbox 1. 6 eeprom was unchangable due to it not having a tsop, making it essentially frozen in time. A few years ago, I wanted to change my xbox 1.6b hard disc key (which is stored in the eeprom), to match the one in my 1.6. So that all my saves from the 1.6 would work with the 1.6b (some saves are signed by the hard disc key). So I took my xbox's to a modder, he did all the work, cloned the hard drives, copied the keys etc.
Both xbox's now had identical hard drives, and hdd keys, and most importantly, all the saves worked.Now both xbox's 1.6 and 1.6b and are unmodded (as far as I know), so how did he achieve this if the eeproms are supposed to be unchangeable? Configmagic from what I have read, can do it, but if the eeprom is supposed to be unchangeable, then how does it work? Is there a softmod or something on the hard drive that has a separete eeprom that overrides the main one?
This has always baffled me, I must admit I do not know very much about modding and I may have my facts wrong.I am also unable to contact this modder to ask him what he did, I just told him what I wanted and he did it. I do remember him saying something about an algorithm he used, but thats about it. I guess I should have inquired more at the time. The eeprom is on a small writable chip near the clock capacitor on a v1.6+ Xbox and it's just above the TSOP chip on all other versions. ( it's near the LPC ) Configmagic allows you to edit the eeprom on the Xbox and change certain things, but it's advised not to change anything if you aren't sure what you're doing. Also the person done one of two things.
Softmodded the Xboxs and used the dumped eeprom.bin from your main Xbox to flash to the new one.( since they were both v1.6 it's straightforward as they use the same eeprom key ) Used a modchip and done above. ( solderless or they soldered an LPC header ) There is also a third way, eeprom reader.Modifying your eeprom does not require any soldering or modifications beyond modding it. It can be done from a softmodded Xbox or one with a custom bios (modchip or TSOP flash). The outcome is the same.If you know the HDD key you want to use, you can enter it in manually using configmagic. You can also backup and restore eeproms but I haven't ever needed to do that and cannot attest to the compatibility between console revisions.
Rocky says it's fine and he'd know as well as anyone whether that's a good idea or not.To put it simply, run configmagic on both Xboxes. Back up both eeproms and move the backups to a computer for safety. On the Xbox you're copying your HDD key TO (not from), run configmagic and press the Start button on your controller and select 'unlock hdd'. Then choose 'edit eeprom on the fly'. Next move down to the HDD key field and enter in the same HDD key as the Xbox you're copying the HDD key FROM. Select 'update eeprom'. Select 'load the eeprom'.Select 'lock hard drive'.
Your eeprom and hard drive now use the same key as your other ('from') Xbox.Keep in mind, when changing hdd keys as you know, it may invalidate game saves. Use with caution. I'm not sure but you might be able to copy them to a memory unit and then back after changing the key. On a related note, this is something I do to every Xbox I own.I set the drive key to be all zeroes for all of my xboxes. Makes things much easier. See the link in my signature for details.
Upgrading your Hard Drive The stock Xbox hard drive is extremely small with an 8GB or 10GB hard drive. While this is enough room for game saves, you will need to upgrade your hard drive with a larger IDE hard drive if you want to store more than a couple game backups on it.

There usually located in E:Backups or E:BackupSo what you do is downloadGet your eeprom.bin from the Xbox you want the new HDD in, put it in the E: partition on the Xbox you cloned the drive on and locked it to. (Note the eeprom.bin must be all lowercase)Now install Chimp 261812, just copy the content of the E partition folder to E: now swap the slave drive like you normally do & load chimp 261812, you will get IO errors because the HDD is locked don't worry about it, when you get to the chimp menu select option 3 option 2 option 1 to unlock the slave drive.Now you want to lock the slave drive using the eeprom.bin located on the E partition.
So it's option 3 option 1 option 3. This will use the E:eeprom.bin to lock the slave drive.Now you can stick the new drive into the other Xbox. I just want to make sure I know the proper order.
In order to use the cloned hd that is full of game rooms I need to first transfer the eprom.bin from the small hd in the modded xbox. I am going to transfer this eeprom via FTP with my laptop. Then boot my xbox with the fully cloned hd in it and transfer the eprom.bin from my laptop via FTP to the cloned hd.
Then lock the cloned hd with the eprom.bin from the xbox I want install it in? Also if I put the eprom.bin on the E: drive will I be able to use the cloned hd in both consoles? Meaning if I continue to place eprom.bin files on this hd from different soft modded consoles I would be able to swap this cloned drive in and out of any consoles I transferred the bin files from?
