If it boots normally with no HDD then something else is wrong , like your launch.ini is pointing to something that doesn't exist ... or it does exist and is corrupt ... It's a little difficult to point out exactly what trouble you are having without seeing how your launch.ini looks and how your HDD folders look ... with no launch.ini you should be fine and can just re-install dashlaunch.

The newest build is 3.02 make sure you have it.

Ok juggahax0r PLEASE tell me how the **** to do that cause I'm a noob.. I/m pretty sure I can figure it out with downloads...

Like I stated, and I seem to be in the same boat, I have attempted to run FSD and XEXMenu from ISOs without success. Have you tried that iTs_CLutch? Let me know if that works for you or not.

juggahax0r, I don't think the launch.ini file has much of anything to do with it anymore.

What exactly happens when you run dashlaunch 3.0.2 install? Because somewhere in that flow is where it locked up and f'd up. Maybe we can reverse it.

You both need to start with fresh NAND images, and reinstall Dashlaunch ...

@mintee - Your problem isn't exactly the same because his boots to normal dash with the HDD unplugged.

What console type is this btw? I can't look back while im posting to see...

When you install dashlaunc it puts the patches in NAND and launch.xex and lhelper.xex in nand ... Launch.ini matters because it is what tells the console what to do and what settings it is supposed to use for dashlaunch , if you have something setup that it doesn't like such as a plugin that crashes it will cause that problem....

New edits: I formatted my HDD.. I can run Xell obviously still, and mow go to the dashboard with the HDD plugged in. Now another bad thing that is occuring is everytime I press the guide button, I get the "Fatal Crash Intercepted" message again... So I can not make a new account.. Also, I put XeXMenu in a USB and it doesnt seem to get it working... Like it doesnt show in the Games library. Help!!
