Re: [RELEASED] XBMC Origins

Is your xbmc profile the same as the xbox live gamertag? Also, the script will fail if you are using the latest build; there's an issue with Python SSL ( I think that's what it is ). Anyway, you might want to replace the Python folder with the last stable one... Please don't ask me how, this should...

Re: SATA Adaptor Compatibility thread

Hi,

Its pretty simple, one piece in between the adaptor and the drive. Another piece the other side of board at the bottom against the casing to hold the sata connector in place.

Re: Recover an original XBOX 1 TB for Windows 7

You might need to completely wipe it first to get it to work in windows, use DISKPART in a command prompt and follow the below LIST DISK (shows all drives) SELECT DISK (add the number for the 1tb drive you want to use) CLEAN Then go into admin tools under control panel, then disk management and init...

Still looking for it (probably left inside another box) I'm sure it will turn up soon enough. Do you need the piece for the 5v on a 1.6?
If you still have it, I need one for a fried X3. I have all the wires, so just the chip is needed. Let me know

Re: SATA Adaptor Compatibility thread

Managed to fine a place eventually with SATA adapters that work on a 2TB Seagate. Cheap as well..... ordered 4 and they all work great. Used a bit of thin foam though as it is close to touching the HDD when fitted just to be on the safe side. http://www.aliexpress.com/item/SATA-Green-7-15-To-PATA-ID...

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

I cannot plug in the power/eject pcb as the xbox turns on as soon as there is power and the front power/disc buttons do not work. With it disconnected, i'm told the x3 should run enabled but it doesn't. I can however bridge the power/eject cable to force the X3 into backup mode. The flash protect sw...

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

There is no flat cable, I have removed it so as per Psyko's comment it boots bank 1-4 as default. X3 is not enabled and boots MS Bios, I can only get into backup bios by bridging the power/reset cable (power/reset pcb not connected as this causes the xbox to turn on, boot ms bios with front panel bu...

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

Removed the external module at the start, it makes no difference. The led on the X3 does change when I switch on the x3 itself but still the same error. On boot, x3 is not enabled and if the power/reset is connected, both buttons do not work and the xbox powers on automatically (with x3 disabled) Ch...

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

Thanks Psyko, my mistake was thinking bytes not bits when looking..... :)

Before I get one and swap it out, any ideas on permanently disabling the write protect, just to be sure its not that on the X3?

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

I'm not entirely sure but doesn't the Xecuter 3 reports "unknown flash! halted" error when flash protect is ON? Maybe it's not the chip itself but the flash protect switch that is broken. Did your Xecuter 3 suddenly stopped working or did you try to flash something on it and then it broke...

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

Thanks, but the problem persists when the panel is not connected as well, the switch changes the light on the X3 but I get the same error in either direction.

Re: Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

Thanks Psyko, never thought about the switch being faulty, the lights change ok using the switch or the panel, but I have noticed it quickly flashes up 'Read Only???' then the device ID when booting into FlashBIOS 3.0.1 Is there any way to bridge this to permanently disable flash protect in any way?...

Replacing X3CE 2mb flash

Hi All,

Can anyone give me the details of the 2mb flash so I can get a replacement, think mine has died. I get "unknown flash! halted" error.

Can boot the x3 into backup but that's about it.

Received with thanks, looks like the 2mb flash has died on my X3, flashbios 3.0.1 just gives me "unknown flash! halted" error.

Re: FREE Xbox MB modchip ready and bits [UK]

Hi, I'd be happy to take this off your hands, I have just killed something on mine, not sure if its the mb / mod issue or the xecuter. Would be handy to test things with.

PM me your details and I'll get the paypal payment over.

If I disconnect the red cable they work, and if I bridge the cable I get into FlashBIOS on the X3 but the recovery is 3.0.1 w...
