How can I flash my x1.x?
You can't. The Xecuter1 series are non-flashable LPC mods. In order to use a more current bios, you might want to look into the Phoenix Bios Loader, which can load a bios after the xbox is running.

Notes about installing your chip and using the FLASHBIOS

My chip was advertised to be pre-flashed, why do I have to flash it again?
Your chip was pre-flashed with what is known as the "FLASHBIOS" that is based on the legal cromwell bios. This bios allows you to easily flash your modchip simply by burning a bios of your choice to a CD/DVD, or over your LAN. A guide to flashing your chip with the FLASHBIOS (by Team Xecuter) can be found
here
Older version of the flashbios did not allow you to flash via http. An older, and still very much valid guide can be found here

Why cant I see anything on the TV with the FLASHBIOS?
You must use the standard A/V pack that came with the xbox. After you have flashed the chip, you can continue to use the A/V pack of your choice.
If you have an older version of the flashbios, it may not support your video chip. If the xbox can boot, the flashbios will still work fine, simply follow the same instructions.

Why cant I move around the FLASHBIOS menu?
It is recommended that you only use an official MS controller, without memory cards or an xbox communicator. Many other controllers and memory cards will still function, but not all.

Why does the xbox just boot with the MS bios and MS dash launched like the chip isnt even there?
This is usually caused by your d0 point not being grounded properly. The d0->GND wire is essentially the on/off switch for you chip.
