Sweet man that's awesome are u going to add anything to it? Only plan I have at the moment is to have 2 hdd's in it. 1 for xbmc and other xbox stuff and a 2nd for gentoox. not got any plans for now for anything else yet but these things evolve. Temp wise, I've not seen it move more than 1 deg off 5...

Look what came in the post today:






Happy Days

if i recall corectly you need to setup partitions with xbpartitioner 1.0 and format with 1.1

theres loads of room in there if you plop a 2.5" hdd in there and slot it under the dvd

Xbox-hq is the site i used to use for info, found xbox-scene forums to clicky for my liking, very rarely went further than the news page there.

Hope we don't lose all the most valuable resources.

Bookmarked!

Thank You whufclee

besides the nightmare of installing it, who is going to code the drivers for it? we cant even get the right software for the GPU that is already in the xbox!

Never going to happen inho

I'm In!!

I'm not missing out on a Trusty board any longer!

Thank You Trusty

Hi Trusty

as in THE trusty?

are you doing any of these new mods to sell & how much to ship to the UK?

it's Payday tomorrow YAY!!

sounds like a good idea except when you turn it on by hitting the eject button by mistake

so does unleashx only write the partition table when it builds f and g drives?

what if he popped it into a tsop'd box and just used an unleashx boot disc but not formating f or g? but the cluster size may stop that working i dont know, sounds easyer to just grab a copy of your mates hdd but just use ftp in the future

Unfortunate lesson, it does help to do lots of reading first before doing anything risky. I never bother with chips myself ( only ever fitted 4 of them ) I much prefer to just flash the tsop using a softmod to gain access to flashing tools like a modded evodash or shallax's linux flash tool, it does...

Sounds like you've fried the chip, I've never had an Aladdin so i have no idea if it has a second bank that you can use but if you look up the instal diagrams you will find a connection called D0, cut this and your box should boot again as long as your hdd was locked and the ms dash is were it's mea...

you've yet to build your self a water cooled xbox

The tools are for building motorbikes & i'm not trying to reinvent the wheel, I'm just to lazy to go to the shops to buy something i could make or get around,
most of my creativity happens well past midnight for a start anyway. Lol

Lol :) I'm old skool man :) these anti tamper bolts have been around for years, just check what holds the ignition barrel onto any motorbike in the last 35+ years. if i don't have the tool, i will make one, thats why I have lathes and mills and pillar drills :D just realized that I now have 3 un fin...

I keep meaning to put my torx set into my lathe and drill out the security hole myself. I have so many busted wireless 360 pads that need repairing too XD

yeah, torx with a pin in the middle, ones i had were more dome head style, I just took a hacksaw to each head and cut a slot that my good old flathead screwdriver could work with (except were they were buried next to components i had to use grips and bully them out)

Just browsed through this whole thread, loving the work done here. :) Contributing my work - Thanks for posting your pics :) I've kinda always wanted to do an xbox in a similar case and have just begun work taking apart one of those white sky boxes for my donor case. Kinda obvious plans are to use ...
