goat...ive read that the only things that cause your xbox live to be banned were:
1) a bigger HDD that wasnt locked. if its locked then its no problem
2) a different bios, such as the one that would be found in a mod chip
so if you dont load the mod chips bios, then there is no problem. what i hear you do is, start up the box with the chip switched off, which loads the default xbox bios, thus alowing you to go on LIVE. i also may have heard that some chips have space for multiple BIOS's and with the switch you can select which one gets loaded, so for example, you would put the EVOX BIOS in slot 1 or whatever its called, then a copy of the default xbox BIOS on slot 2. load the evox bios for "backups" and the default for all else.
