this is fixable using marcelios method pretty sure its the skin not loading properly although thAT would not explain the freezing of the xbox logo,..
PRObably more video/graphics related becos it freezing the loading...OK so I DID FIX this now BUT
you need to reinstall F3 using the previous working version, TURN OFF the console after this (I GET AN ERROR WHEN IT TRY'S TO EXIT the INSTALLER TARYING TO LOAD DASHLAUNCH ? OR is IT F3? SHRUG)
ok so you console is OFF, PLUG YOUR HARD DRIVE IN, then power it back on it should boot into F3 but you WILL NOT see anything on the TV (HDMI or AV cable)
aslong as you get 1 light on the power for your controller YOU WILL BE ABLE TO FTP to it! YAY now you can delete all FSD files off the HDD and it will work with NXE and you can then install new fresh working FSD, you may want to update to latest dashlaunch aswell 3.04
i deleted all FSD folders and launch.ini off the HDD left my games , emu's and homebrew.
hope this wasn't to hard to understand tnxx
