Does the length make any difference to performance?

Why habibi signed? That's only required for the font exploit. Yea, I need it for my TSOP Flasher... I will upload my little batch that you just drag and drop an xbe onto & it signs it for you. Sweet, where can I find it? NEXT ATTEMPT: Alrighty, I've made some changes from last time: 1) I'm now ...

What are partitions F & G's actual available space? After making some observations I noticed there are some discrepancy between XBP and other dashboards... I was already aware of this but I wanted to bring it up again. My results after formatting F&G with XBP... XBPartitioner 1.3: https://i....

Actually I have one more thing I cant stress more about
DO NOT wrap the cord around your controller!!!

Almost every control I've picked up over the past couple of months are
destroyed because of people wrapping the cable, I recommend folding!
Otherwise the internal cores will disfigure and break...

you might need to disable apm on that drive APM??? Yeah bugger, that's my fault, I left it as hdb, should be hda. It's fixed now, just redownload and replace the initrd.gz file. Thanks for pointing that out ;) All good, glad to help ;) I got the link from your YouTube video, do I still use that lin...

BIOS I picked up another 1.6 over the weekend, that apparently wouldn't turn on... When turning it on it would try and boot the BIOS 3 times where on the third I got flashing leds... I removed that chip and installed another that i knew worked and I got the same thing occurring. By now I've realized...

One of the aladdins i got has had a bad flash, my fault of course...
Since I dont have a programmer, is it possible to hotswap the modchips around and reflash?

Well I'm still having some issues that I'm trying to isolate... 80 WIRE IDE So I bought a 80 wire ide cable, it was rather short but still managed to connect everything up. I had a bit of a play around with it and I noticed the cable would work either way. What length cables are people buying? 80 Wi...

Oh man I had no idea you could swap heatsinks! Gotta try it soon, thanks a lot mate! Welcome, Taking off the plastic clips will be difficult, you'll have to work that out for yourself. It'll take a bit of force to remove the heatsinks, clean the area as best you can... You can replace the heatsink ...

Just had to leave a post to say well done. nice to see someone taking the time to bring so many xbox's back from the dead. Ive a few lying down the back of my garage ive been meaning to look at for ages, some with the problems you mention. Most of mine are usually the bulging or burst capacitors al...

I've had some interesting results when repairing the consoles I have... POWER SUPPLYS The first two consoles I got a while back was from a kid that had pulled them apart. One was a 1.6 and the other 1.2-1.5, neither consoles would power on, It didn't take long to figure out that the PSU's were in th...

For now anyways... Thanks again for everyones help...

I dunno where I went wrong with the aladdins but when i used duo-x2 i had it worked fine...

Over the past week I TSOP flashed about 6 consoles where I was able to recover a couple of modchips. I have a v1.0 console that has a dead hard drive so I thought I would install a aladdin modchip. Then lock a temp drive to the console, remove modchip, TSOP flash it and unlock the drive. Below you c...

Alright, I finally had some time to play around with this again... I started with a v1.4 console with thompson dvd-rom 1) TSOP flashed console with iND-BIOS 5003/4.67 (F&G) 2) Installed the new 2Tb drive along with SATA adaptor 3) Used my own Auto Installer to prepare the drive. 4) I installed X...

I replaced two of the Seagate Desktop ST2000DM001 I had with Seagate NAS ST2000VN000 I only use EVO X bios as recommended by Xman for 2TB support and have no issues. If I continue to have problems I will definitely be trying the EvoX M8 BIOS next... I always use a ultra ata ribbon cable with my adap...

Hybrids have caused me issues, only with CHIMP, but as i hard mod only now I have no such issues. Are you referring to the Seagate 2Tb SSHD Hybrid? (ST2000DX001) Any funny clunking or squealing usually means a problem with the hdd, (actuator or heads). I would pop the drive in the pc and run serial...

Really all we can suggest is have a play with changing things until you get a working setup, that is where all the fun is. Trial and error takes a long time especially when it take about 5 days to transfer 2Tb of data. I wish to go over a few things... BIOS: iND-BIOS 5003/4 Id be looking at the ada...
