infernal_byte Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I've run into a strange issue with a 1.0 Xbox. It seems that a Startech IDE adapter and new 1TB hdd are not being recognized when plugged into the end of the IDE cable and throwing error 13 in the BIOS. The Xbox is TSOP flashed with Cerbios 2.3.1, and the hdd is formatted and cloned with FATXplorer. I've tried swapping the cable, dvd drive, adapter, master/slave position, and hard drive to no avail. The only thing that seems to work is when the hdd is plugged into the part of the cable that the dvd drive normally occupies. What stumps me is that the stock drive works and boots perfectly fine in the normal configuration. Does anyone have an idea of what might be causing this issue?

Dempsey_86 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Did you use a 80 wire IDE cable or the stock IDE that came with the xbox? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infernal_byte Posted April 18 Author Share Posted April 18 I am using the stock IDE cable. I have an 80 wire cable on order that hasn't come in yet, but was going to try that next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dempsey_86 Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 I'm 99% sure that 80 wire cable will fix the issue. Let us know if that is the fix when your cable arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
