    lol, quick answer, ok I've got a good xbox question for anybody who's ever tried this. Can you remove the hard drive in an xbox, use it in a computer, do a partition swap with another drive, and put the new partition swaped drive in place of the old one? I've tried this before, but my bios wouldn't boot with the xbox hdd :eyebrow:

    8GB actually. More than enough for a console, easy for me to burn through in a few hours provided I have a good broadband connection. :D

    the voice thing could be done very easily and for like $1.... go to radioshack or somewhere like that and buy an adaptor that changes from the rca audio (red & white) jacks to phone (headphone) plug.. plug the audio cables from the xbox's av cables into the rca connectors on the adaptor and plug the phone plug from the adaptor on either your mic or line-in jack on your computers soundcard....you'll have this:

    XBOX AV_____ADAPTOR
    |..........................|
    V.........................V
    R ======[¯¯]=O¯¯¯¯\_to sound card
    W======[__]=O____/¯

    now use a phone dialing program on yourcomputer... talk in whatever game elts you do the voice mask and the phone software will then use the xbox's audio as the audio it sends over the phone line.

    :)

    BTW, my bios sees the hdd in my xbox as 80gig. The actual drive is a western digital caviar "enhanced" IDE drive. It is a standard hdd.

    okay XBOX HDD WILL WORK IN PC!!

    How To Use Original Xbox Hdd In Your Pc (v0.3)
    Tutorial written by : GTac01

    First of all dl the hdd unlocker HERE

    Then connect your original hdd to your xbox, using Evox, get your hdd password. (in the evolutionx dash go 'system utils' then 'backup' , this will make a directory called "backup" on the C drive of your xbox. "hddinfo.txt" will contain the HD key)
    Once you have it, It looks like this:

    01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF
    01:23:45:67:89:AB:CD:EF
    01:23:45:67:00:00:00:00
    00:00:00:00:00:00:00:00

    rewrite it as followed:

    0123456789ABCDEF0123456789ABCDEF01234567

    Yeah delete the last zeroes, and print it out, ull need it.

    Now you have to boot DOS (Bootdisk).

    Go here for a bootdisk that works with Win98-WinXp.

    Once downloaded execute it, enter a Floppy disk in ur computer.
    it will make that disk a boot disk.

    Then add the files: hdunlock.exe, hdunlock.pas, hddisabl.exe, and hdddisabl.pas to the bootdisk just created.

    Now, turn off your computer, set your xbox hdd to SLAVE, install your xbox hdd in your computer.

    Turn on your computer with bootdisk inserted, and it will ask you to press a key, then press a key, and you are in A:\>

    Type in hdunlock and press enter
    Select your xbox hdd, and enter your hdd password

    it should say DONE

    Type in hddisabl
    Select oyur xbox hdd, and enter your xbox hdd password

    it should say DONE.

    Congratulations you have unlocked your xbox hdd for formatting.

    Simple way to format it in WinXP:

    Now boot to windows
    enter "MMC" in RUN
    File-->Add/Remove Snap-in
    Click on ADD
    New window appears double click on Disk Management
    New window, click finish
    Click on OK
    Click on Disk Management(LOCAL)
    then right click on disk 1 and select the first option
    now right click on the right box next to the Disk 1 Box
    Then click on format, and format it the way you want it, select your partition letter and your ready to go.

    lol, thanks, I'm trying to downgrade the drive in my xbox, swap it with a 20 gig, I figure for the effort involved, it's worth it, because I don't have the cash to go out and buy a 80gig hdd, especaly one of that quality.
