== Chapter 11: The Softmod Section ==<br />
[[Image:XBMCID-C1101.JPG|link=]]<br><br><br />
This is the first screen you see which displays your options. Just a quick note, make sure you don’t forget to install SID in the <b>Advanced Options</b> section if you wish to boot the Gamesave via the original game, that’s if you haven’t already installed it.<br><br> <br />
=== Single Boot Softmod Options ===<br />
These are the single-boot options available to you:<br><br><br />
*Standard<br />
*Standard for HD<br />
*Virtual C + Eeprom<br />
*Virtual C + Eeprom for HD<br><br />
You’ll notice that you have two new options compared to the One-Click Install System. Installing the Softmod for HD (High Definition) means that your Softmod will be set so your Xbox is best displayed with a High Definition TV.<br><br><br />
You only get the options to install EvolutionX or UnleashX in this section, but you can easily go back to the <b>Install Dashboards</b> section and change it (to XBMC for example).<br><br> <br />
One small rule, when installing a Softmod with Virtual C, don’t select a Softmod Dashboard, because the Softmod tricks your Xbox into thinking that the C Drive is still stock (unmodded), so in order to access the MS Dash properly you need to remember this.<br><br><br />
=== Dual Boot Softmod Options ===<br />
Unlike the Single-Boot Softmod, the Dual-Boot offers much more flexibility.<br><br><br />
The two options you have are:<br><br />
*Hacked Dash / Softmod Menu<br />
*Hacked Dash / MS Dash<br><br />
You firstly have the option on how you want to control your Dual Boot. After selecting this, you will proceed to the same options as the Single Boot.<br><br><br />
Please note when you use the <b>Hacked Dash / Softmod Menu</b> option, when you boot your Xbox in this state, any Virtual C Drive is turned OFF leaving it exposed. You may not want to use this option if there’s a possibility that your Xbox can be used by someone that could easily format it on you.<br><br><br />
The <b>Hacked Dash / MS Dash</b> option allows you to use Xbox Live properly (only with Original Games though). For this to work correctly, you must have you Xbox unmodded to set up your Xbox Live Account. Once this is done, you can proceed to apply the Softmod to your Xbox.<br><br><br />
=== Unmounting the Virtual C Drive ===<br />
This option comes in handy when you want to re-install your Xbox’s C Drive, but you are currently using a Virtual C Drive. Not every Softmod has this feature, but at least this way you are 100% sure that there isn’t one running in the background.<br><br><br />
=== Removing the SID Softmod from your Xbox ===<br />
This removal method is the same used in SID 5, so in order for this to work correctly you must make sure you have a proper backup of the MS Dash on E Drive. If you don’t have this, Auto-Installer Deluxe can easily do this for you; just remember to do so before using the removal tool.</div>DJB
