All menus will be self explanatory, and will go to the point, but make sure of the following tips to complete a successful softmod.
Must have a retail MS Backup, either made by this installer or a previous SID installer that supports the target E:\backup\MS\, this backup must not be modded, and must have retail files, no dash version is specified if not installing Ndure.
If you plan to Install the Dual Boot with MS Dash, YOU MUST have MS Dash 5960 either in your MS Backup or your True C drive (newest 1.6 Xboxes have this).
Backup of your EEPROM must be made no matter what to complete the install. This is due to the fact that an eeprom backup is needed to be patched, and put into your hidden boot files to be loaded with the all new nkpatcher system, allowing this eeprom to be loaded instead of your real one to prevent apps from unlocking your HDD, and if you mess with your eeprom, then it’s just your virtual eeprom and not the real one, leading to a broken Xbox.
The Uninstall Feature is picky. You must have a retail, non modded, MS Backup to it can proceed, it also pay attention to what it tell you, so you don’t make mistakes, and you select “YES” or “NO” wisely.
Please be aware that SID 5 will take around 15-30 seconds to install a file called "shadowc.img", so if you see that it looks like if it froze, don't panic, and let it run.
