Hyperite Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Best way to do it is to unlock your current drive and copy the image onto a new one. Check the other threads for known good drives that you can upgrade to without freezing issues. You can change the splash screen without any hacks. Check the manual for how to load an image from a CD.

livnlo Posted November 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 thank you for all the info Hyperite. i think i am read up good enough to do all of this, i do however want to know if i should do anything to the image before putting it on the new drive. ie backgrounds spalsh screens etc etc. also on a side note i could have sworn i read that the ilumination could be change to match the stock dash color. i have read and went threw all the screens on the z2 and cant find this feature anywhere. am i missing it or is this not possible???
