Re: Cheap And Easy Xbox HDMI

Don't know if its due to pulling my 5v source from the DVD drive cable or not but my converter drops image after a while for about 2 seconds before recovering. It will proceed to do that at least once more while playing a game before working perfectly. Any ideas? Should I change my power source? I ...

Re: Where is everyone?

Good, Dom has a chipped machine. Throw in a HDD and your away. BuZzard, want to become a legend, give me a call aye. I could do with some stress relief throwing abuse at my favorite Pommy.

Re: Hard drive mod assistance - several questions.

927Gb on each drive, (F and G), is what you will get if you have reclustered the drives correctly. No more.

Re: 2TB upgrade - Freezes when loading apps, really slow boo

My adapters all resemble the one GoTeamScotch linked to and I have never used other than the stock IDE cable with Seagate HDDs. Make sure your booting app is on either your C or E drive, never the F or G drive. Booting times using modchipped machines with EvoxDash and 2TB satas is usually around 12 ...

Re: Ideas for modern-day applications of XBMC4XBOX?

Sometimes you need to look outside the square with the Xbox. :D How about using different versions of XBMC, each set up a different way to do what you want it to do. From the home page of the default booting XBMC, have each of the "selection titles" boot another XBMC set up to do your diff...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

If you are getting "invalid path" you may not have G drive selected in the Ind bios settings maybe?. Does the G drive show up in the EvoxDash or another app?. Ideally if you have another HDD with both F and G drive, ( doesn't matter what sized drives F and G are on it), as long as it is un...

Re: XBOX 2TB SATA Upgrade Tutorial

So .. Here's where I'm at now.. G drive shows nothing in XBMC, and when I FTP into it, only a few drives show and G is missing. However, with the slayers disc in, both F and G show as 995 GB available - AND G is available when I FTP into the Xbox when slayers running. So this is what I did.. 1) I c...

Re: Can't delete files or folders?

Yep, you will need to use XbPt to alter the cluster size but before you re-cluster, try loading a few things on the drive just to test everything is looking OK. It will load and allow you to check things prior to re-clustering infact the drive will work perfectly until you get over 127GB. Once you c...

Re: Can't delete files or folders?

Try another IDE cable. I still use Slayers 2.7 to build a HDD from scratched or format a single drive. Have you tried using Avalaunch to delete the effected files?. Can you manually rename the effected files?.

Re: Can't delete files or folders?

Have you checked the network status in the XBMC info?. Have you tried another net cable?. I've had this issue myself a long time ago and it turned out to be a cable issue or the network itself. Maybe I reset the network. I can't really remember exactly what i did.

I spoke to the BuZzard the other day and he was somewhat upset I had not updated this post so this update is inspired by the whinging pommy bastard. :D I figure if he is good enough to keep our forum financial, the least I can do is add something here plus it might actually keep him quite for a whil...

Re: Xbox frag after sitting 5 months

Fragging......What is it doing LED warning wise. The patterns that the machine sends out helps with diagnosing the problem. Before ripping apart the machine, always check that the AVI cable is fully plugged into the machine by the way. Most bioses will detect this plug not being fully inserted and s...

@ NeMesiS... Just letting you know the connectors on the IDE cables can be removed by taking the top clip off and pulling the lower part of the connector still attached to the IDE cable off the cable and reversing it. Once the cable is removed from the connector, turn the connector around, place you...

Re: [Compatibility] Wireless Keypad w/ Mini Keyboard

Nice work Dom. Good to see I'm not the only one that buys devices to "try" a theory. 2.4GHz is far better than the short range offered by BlueTooth anyway. BlueTooth version 2 and 3 only offer 10 meters range at best, BlueTooth version 4 has this extended out to 20 meters which is better b...
