Will apply a large dollop of caution when attempting the upgrade blighty

Just noticed stashed away in a corner of employers workshop a hot air solder station, that'll make the job MUCH easier I'm guessing some desolder wick would be the best method of freeing the chip legs from the pads?

just won a bid for a faulty xbox mobo, 128mb here I come......

cheers, was hoping for some nice clean chips but I guess ebays the practical option

I've been wanting to do that upgrade for a while, but couldn't find a source for those chips so gave up.
Are there any decent sources around for these still?

Whats the best technique to get the ram chips off the old card?

Cheers for that Shallax

Doubled it up as you said and no probs, its flying now

ah yeah thats right
remember seeing that on the xecuter website a while back but now the instructions have been replaced in favour of the X3

thanks for that!
Will do what you suggest, incidentally anyone using the xecutor 2.6 variety of modchip take note it might not upgrade properly with the normal procedure, unless im doing something completely brainless of course!

Really puzzled about this, maybe someone can point me in the right direction as to how to fix it. Magic seemed to run fine, although I didnt pay too much attention to the progress which may be my downfall!

However now it seems my bootloader is nackered :( When in the bios i can only select boot stardust from CD, none of the other options are available. I know i'll get a lot of tol...

I've trawled through the old posts, but can't find a conclusive answer. Please flame away if this isn't the case! I want mldonkey to be able to use the f drive to store temp files and completed files as the linux partition isn't big enough. My rootfs is on the e drive. I've tried to chown appropriat...

exactly the quick fix I was looking for

Was dreading going through and renaming all the buggers....

I seem to have a problem copying mp3's with long filenames over to my xbox (from WinXP). The error message is "invalid file handle"

Is there something I need to change in Samba config in order to get around this? Or is it a problem with the fatx file system?

Thanks
