hi lee, it's deffo a 1.2 or 1.3.
how did you rate the film?

Hi Jan, brilliant release
And I love that skin, especially in the 3d cover mode .
One issue I'm getting and it maybe due to 31139 itself is the video library doesn't want to scan more than 278 films.
Has anyone else seen that?

Where in the world are you Evan? I have quite a few xboxes here that I could take a look at and see if I have any v1.2/1.3's. I'm in UK (Basildon, Essex) so if you're in UK it shouldn't cost too much to post. Hi Lee, I'm in Derby. Not a world away ;-) If you can have a look that's be great, I'd pay...

I don't really want to ditch it as it's been modified. It has an Aladdin in it and a 2TB Samsung drive. And nor should you considering that is about the best combo you can have Xbox wise. ;) Certainly my favorite anyway. I'd say your power supply has just shit itself but then again it could be a co...

Thanks guys.
This is going to be more difficult than I thought it would be.
Was hoping to just buy a black and use it as a donor, but looks like
with the version differences I may not get the right type. :-O

Don't suppose anyone has a black 1.2/1.3 they'd fancy parting with do they?

xbox power supplies: v1.0 and v1.1 - the same v1.2 - v1.5 - the same v1.6 - its own thing I'm almost 100% sure that's right :lol: Just looked inside my daughters 1.4 and it seems totally different, i.e different colour wires in different pinouts on the connector if you know what I mean. Is it easy ...

Pretty sure there are different power supplies for different models so it would probably just be easier to buy a new xbox. Have you tried a different power cord? Any power cord with the figure of 8 connection will do the job. Hi Lee, great to see you back. I don't really want to ditch it as it's be...

Next question, are all Xbox power supplies equal?
i.e. can I buy any cheap working xbox black or crystal and swap out the power supply?

there is a mains fuse in the power supply it is usually a black or brown pea sized thing with a amp rating on it it is connected to the power socket on the back if you trace back, also check the soldering on the power socket its self i have had several where the soldering was not good and caused a ...

Went to try my xbox last night to watch a film before going to bed, pressed the power switch and nothing! :-O I wasn't too fussed last night, so went to bed. But this morning I've checked the lead, i.e. changed the fuse, the socket itself is fine, but nothing. It's a black v1.2/1.3 and haven't had a...

Yay, we're back up and running. :-) Thanks BuZz for doing this and for your devotion to the little black and crystal boxes we all have. Lunch times haven't been the same all week, with no xbmc4xbox to look through. I've had serious withdrawl symptoms, lol! Anyway, hello all, hope we can make this si...
