This part gets a bit confusing, but should be easy as I shall explain what is happening step-by-step.

1) select "Install Ndure softmod"
2) You will see 3 options. "Help! .06 or .67?" "nkpatcher.06" and nkpatcher.67" This part is slightly confusing but only important if you are planning on installing a larger harddrive than the original one included with the xbox. However, i will explain which option does what.

A stock XBox has an 8 gigabyte harddrive.

.06
1-8 gigs located through random partitions, already decided. 8-? gigs will be on F

.67
1-8 gigs located through random partitions, already decided. 8-137 gigs located on F, and the rest on a new partition, G.

If you are planning on installing a harddrive larger than 250 gigs, it's recomended you choose .67. However, harddrive swapping will not be covered in this instructable. If you're not going to mess with the harddrive, like most, it doesn't matter which patcher you choose. I just chose .06.

If you don't know what a partition is, look it up on wikipedia.

3) Your choice of 2 dashboards, Evolution X, or Unleash X. I chose Evolution, and that is what I will be using to show you how to go on. Though it shouldnt matter which you choose.

4)Your Harddrive should then be scanned for the proper files. Select ok, then another window will popup. Read it, and if you see an error screen (included below) then you know you didn't back up the eeprom, or don't have a high enough xbox dashboard. All this means is that you need to go get a copy of halo 2, or any new game, and your dashboard will be updated with the version included on that disc, and halo 2 has a high enough dash included to proceed.

5) The mods are now being installed. I will start to beep ALOT, do not worry about that, it is normal.

6) a screen will apear saying you can power your box off, and remove the game. We are about half-way done.

Proceed to the next step for further information!
