Partitioning Problem, Large Hard Drive with XBPartitioner Options

[DJ_Yuz]

Sorry to dredge up this topic again, but will Raincoat Flasher still require me to bridge the points if my Box was previously TSOPed?

The TSOP points always need to be bridged for you to flash a BIOS.

Yes, iND-BIOS 5003 had the IGR bug where you can just hit Back + White and it shuts down, or Back + Black and it resets...no triggers required. (This -might- be only with some controllers, I haven't tested)


I've always used the 5004 beta (in the /beta folder on the main Usual Place), named iND-BiOS.Beta.Feb-11-05, which fixed that bug.


I remembered that there's that IGR problem because I had reflashed normal 5003 to play around with virtual dvdrom/.ISO mounting (the modchip kernel patcher utility didn't seem to like the changes done in that ind-bios beta), and just started running into the whole Back + black/white thing when messing with certain emulators. :/

Are you using DVD-R? If you are then it's possible that your DVD drive just doesn't like reading burned discs - the Xbox DVD drives were always poor quality, and there's a good chance that your drive will have got worse over time. If that's the case then your only option to get the disc to read is to swap the drive with one from another Xbox.

Not always! I've got a couple Phillips drives that'll read everything I throw at them including cd-r/rw's!

That's all.

Use the last Evox M8, It does everything and the CD-Rom patch supports it. I've had 0 problems

As far as DVD drives.. The philips dvd drives where great until the logic board just died or the tray stopped working properly. I think the LG where the only ones (somewhat rare) that maybe where okay quality.
