Why I am avoiding the Cerbios softmod

Please do not thumbs down this, and please understand this

People keep telling me to get the Cerbios softmod to fix video issues with my 1.6 original Xbox but they don't seem to realize that I am not able to for the reason below

I am avoiding that bc if I screw something up, I am screwed bc I do not have any of the tools needed to plug my console's HDD to my computer to unlock the drive, flash the EEPROM and lock the drive again, sorry

(Installing the Cerbios softmod is more risky than installing any other softmod)

Anyways today is my birthday so wish me a happy birthday please!
