just got to trying (sorry have been sick the last few days) i have tried and its still locking teh system up.
No problem. Then the last thing you can do is to find out which line in the guest.ini file locks the system up. It's a bit of trail and error but the system locks up because of the detection phase so you need to remove the line(s) which causes this.
i took another stab today Thinking this is all somehow related to my SCSI Card n HDD as no matter what i did, i'd hear the drive n see the card re-init (its one of the Adaptec ones w/ an LED on-card)
i had Just upgraded last week in my OG Xbox (i hate how the last gen ones are called the Xbox "One" >_>) it's Hard Drive, i had no use at first w/ its original Stock HDD, so i put it back in long enough to run ConfigMagic so i could let the console unlock teh drive itself (if you dont know, the OG Xbox requires its HDD to be Security-locked, and i involved it mainly because i didnt have the eeprom backed up for that drive anymore ^^;;) and put it in this rig im slowly working on...
well i found out what in everything seems to be the issue but not what i expected, after it was still hanging, i stripped it down to just its video card the LS120 drive and ZIP100 drive.. even after removing everything relating to the SCSI n Parallel) port drivers in the guest.ini.... still nothing! gave it one last hail mary shot.. copied a fresh copy back off the floppy i had of the .ini, shut the PC down and disconnected the LS120 Drive.. GUEST.EXE instantly set it to Drive D:
i have No clue if its this Specific LS120 drive or if its the fact its there, thats causing the Issue (the only other working drive i have is in another build and atm, it being a little late into the night, i dont feel like getting it out of the other room, and stripping it down for the drive JUST for testing... )
Does anyone know why this is occurring? i do have 2 other ZIP100 drives intended for use in other builds, and the one in the currently affected build.. unlike the others has a Master/Slave/Cable Select and a Master A/Slave A/Cable Select A setting for the jumper drive select jumper. i dont know which Mode i have it on but i do have it in one of the cable select Modes. either later tonight if i dont fall asleep early like i have been or tomorrow morning i'll try the opposite Drive select Mode that its in, as well see if its happening if the LS120 is on the other IDE Channel. (right now i've had both on the same channel [Secondary Master/slave]) and see if it still locks up.
