    Most guides will say to use Action Replay but there's no need to with Xplorer360 as AR was the only thing capable of accessing FATX devices at the time.

    XBOX <--> USB

    USB to XBOX Wiring Image

    To make a XBOX to USB cable you only need to slice open a breakaway or a pad cable and then connect a male to female cable they should be colour coded to match except the yellow wire which means you can add it onto the cable without completely destroying one or the other (can't find the guide for this anymore)

    eBay link to buy a pre-made xbox to usb (i have bought and used this one)

    Exploited Save Files

    AID(Auto-Installer Deluxe) Has a lot of stuff installed but large DL)

    SID(Soft-Mod Installer Deluxe; Just a basic softmod installer Alt-dash and one or two apps this is included in AID)

    Both the above require a method of getting exploited save file onto your xbox

    This needs a sticky. I just TSOPed my XBOX and it's amazing. Knowledge is power, especially when the links are dying off.

    I see references to eeprom, then a link to a bios. Which are different things.

    Also the link to the reflash bios, which will reflash your eeprom. But if you brick the console (which is the reason it's linked) it's not going to help you, as you can't flash the bios to your tsop modded xbox (as it wont boot with corrupt eeprom) - you would need a modchip (or flash it with the hardware flashed linked above)
