Re: X-BIT bios won't flash

Hi Shallax, Just some feedback the installer bails and reboots when it tried to flash the X-bit 2Mb mod, means I can't play with this interesting project, any ideas on when the non flashing bios version will be out?? Thanks You didn't read the specs for this beta. It will not flash non-raincoat fla...

You know you can take a 256k bios and double it into a 512k bios right? As for the lights that is the way Shallax has set them up in the bios as they do that when using Gentoox also. Looks pretty cool doesn't it? :) I can only select install no matter what I do. Not sure what I'm doing wrong. Guess...

Few thoughts, first Impressions

1. No easy screen calibration to fix the overscan. 2. Cannot pick which audio to use when playing back a movie. 3. Needs BIOS size choices, like Home and Pro of Gentoox has. 4. Also the skin choice doesn't always stay, when you reboot it is back at the previous one. Seems like it is off to a good st...

It does have LBA48, it was my decision to make everything from F: onwards Linux native to avoid piracy. That will have no effect on piracy at all. People are going to do it if they want to. But stopping one type by adding two more isn't a real answer to the problem. Ya, they cannot use pirated Xbox...

Why don't you tell people how then just say do it. Lots of people don't know how to. I don't, unless it is the X2 or Evox one using the XBTools. The XBTools doesn't work on that BIOS though.

That is the same thing that happened to me. I also noticed that when I turned my Xbox on that it was just flashing colors, like an error. The problem is, at least I think, the flashing failed. My X2 v2.3 Lite Plus only takes 512k BIOSes and for now it is only made to do a 256k. So I reflashed my Xbo...

256k

I would be nice to be able to get a 512k version of the BIOS since that is all that the X2 Lite v2.3 chips take

Woo, I'm glad to see theres interest.... some people over at xbox-scene are pretty negative... Not really a good start it seemed. I agree that this is something that is needed. They are mad because of the loss of the F: drive for Xbox gaming or homebrew use. I really want to try this out, looks lik...

Doom was fake 3d. It didn't actually have real up and down dimension (Z axis). Half-Life is real 3d, as you can jump, it calculates vertices, it has lighting and shadow, etc. AFAIK, NWN is 3D, so it won't work with the Xbox's video chip. Lets correct that, it would work if there was drivers that su...

Weird Question

I currently have Gentoox Pro installed on one of my Xboxes. I use it for a file/web/ftp server. Will all these option still be available if I switch that Xbox over to Mediacenter one?

I think error 13 is a hard drive problem. Hope you've got a backup :wink: Error 13 is a Dashboard Not Found Error. It sould like it didn't re-flash your chip and it is still trying to boot the dashboard off of C or F. Here is a link to the Xbox Error Codes. http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/errorc...

Suggestion, spend about $30 and get a router so that you can.
