I did ask for softmodded console but I have a feeling its the hardmodded one. Is there any easy way of identifying whether its hard or soft modded? Besides, is hardmod immune to firmware updates screwups? Again, I am only worried about my console getting screwed, not bothering abt LIVE at all...

lastAvenger Posted February 9, 2008 Report Share Posted February 9, 2008 For DivX support you need to update the console through Xbox Live. I think yours is a soft modded console since its very rare to find a modchip in a 360 unless you paid an hefty amount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
