Use Evox to flash a new BIOS to your modchip. Pick a 256k BIOS so you can be sure it will fit on your unknown modchip - I'd recommend iND-BIOS.5003 or Evox M8+ (but make sure you pick the 1.0-1.5 version, not the 1.6 version).

Alternatively, use HeXEn (Google Heimdall's Xbox Engineering Disc) - it will flash the BIOS and set up the disk drive for you.

I'm sure AID will do it too, but I can't talk you through that - it's a while since I used AID.

When you're flashing, make a note of the detail on the screen - it will tell you which flash chip you have, so you'll be able to work out the size of the chip.

i know he says 1.1 but i thought d6 was for 1.6's

D6 is a really old BIOS, and from memory only works on 1.0 and 1.1 Xboxes.

wasted one hour trying to update the script and addons for xbmc

You need to do one of two things:

- find an Xbox DVD drive that works, and boot HeXEn
- put PBL-metoo on your Xbox (metoo-m8plus-v1.4.1.zip), and make sure you have a bootable dash (preferably UnleashX) at C:\evoxdash.xbe

Both of these will temporarily load a different BIOS into memory, and should then allow you to run Evox to flash a new BIOS. HeXEn is the simpler option, because it automates the whole process and allows you to do what you need from the menu, but the manual version will also work.

ok will download hexen
am running unleash at the moment
will give it a try when found an xbox dvd drive
which bios to do after updating to metoo-m8plus v1.4.1 zip
what advantages will i get after updating to this bios
thanks
Heimdall
I've already answered that question, in the second post.

The advantage is that the Xbox will boot properly, and run Evox, and support larger hard drives, and generally be more stable.

or winbond
can you explain pls
thanks

shambles1980
I personaly think your hard disk is messed up a bit.
But make sure you burn hexen to a dvd-r "that has no scratches on it" at 4x or slower speed.
