Well, I FINALLY got my Original XBox soft modded.
20+ years of chats and forum posts, and 'tutorials', that all just said "This works", when it doesn't ever mention the ACTUALL solution for formatting your memory card. So I thought I would post it here, so people don't have to go through the head ache I did.
You need need to format your USB Drive (No larger than 4GB) to Microsoft FATX format using FATXplorer beta version: 3.0.0.24935 OR higher. When you format, it must be a FULL format, not a quick format, and I had to do 4KB clusters. This may vary depending on your thumb drive.
There. After months of hunting for a solution, that is all it was.
Hopefully someone will google "How to format your thumb drive as a XBox memory card" and this post will come up.
