remember a long tima ago i scored a smartxx ltopx chip from australia for real cheap with lcd:
Well i finally got around to building it up and soldering in the lcd sorry for the poor quality pic's but my camera is bung.
i gave this away to someone that has brought 2 xboxes off me in the last 6 months and sent them back for numerious hdd upgrades and has been great to deal with and very generious.
I know how you like hard wired lcd's xman :-)

Sweet P.J.. Hardwired LCDs. I have my SmartXX courtesy of Nextell in a swap deal we arranged so I could give an Ambient Light feature a go in my LCD machine that had the X3 chip in it Nex was desperately after. Seemed like a fine swap to both of us so it was done. No cash. I mostly like the LCD fitted in a stock face plate though. I personally think it gives a cleaner look. You managed to retain the game ports 3 and 4. Good work, I didn't think that was possible when I modded my face plate for the LCD. Blue back-lite with white character LCD?. I am still desperately after an Aladdin 64 LCD modchip. I'd swap a fully loaded 500Gb IDE hard drive for one of those chips just so's I could finish that Aladdin LCD mod machine I started heaps ago.

Anyway, who's got some more modded Xbox pics for the ShowCase?.

Now that I could use along with a diagram of the driver circuit I need to drive the LEDs if you have anything about what's required. By the way, go ahead with the green and I'll catch up with the crystal. ;) I started another "special" today along with the white and it will take some time to get to do as we discussed. ;)

When PS2 case mod goes wrong ^^ Moral of the Story: Go to bed at night, no case moding at 4am.. And as i always said.. Treat Ghost cases as if they were made of glass.
That was last week... now i need to order a new one, as this kind of stuff tend to keep me from sleeping at night :lol:
(the 2 plastic bits in the back are just leftovers.. for different PS2 rev)
