Modded X-boxes

[Kabifff]

I think I'd like one, but I'm wondering pros/cons of modding, etc... Any tips? I think I may go with an Xecuter 3, but we'll see.

I have an xecuter 2 and LOVE it. Easily my favorite toy.

There are on cons i have 39 games 2 movies a billion songs and the list goes on go for it. Make sure u get atleast a 120gb hdd for it

My Roomies got one...not sure which specific chip, but it is seriously one of the coolest things ever. Like forty games all at your fingertips. The only problem is he got a chip that you can't turn off, so no xbox live. I would definitely recomend getting one of the chips that'll let you use xbox live

[Kabifff]

Yeah, the X3 lets you turn it off, there's some sweet features on it. Any recommended sellers? I don't want to end up with a clone chip since this is such a huge investment.

I liked the X.BIT because DMS Tech is an amazing company. Then again, with the advent of X3, I think they are really pushing forward.

I got a Magic 3.1 from www.modchip.ca , they're pretty reliable and sell the X3.

It's really cool! The aladdin live plus chip is cheap and has all the cool features (if you can solder well). It's a region free dvd, mpeg, avi player.....that can save games directly to the hardrive. It's also a cool throw-back game player...atari games, neo-geo, sega, nintendo........It's really the best all-in-one entertainment console that there is next to a computer....Heck...it is a computer.

Modding your xbox basically turns it into a computer. heck you can even run linux on it. Anyway my friend got one in the early days of the system. The only cons I can think of is 1, voids your warantee. 2 can permanently damage your system if not properly installed or if a problems arises with it. 3. You never find enough time to play all the games you have.

i have xecuter 2.3b lite

It's wonderful. I hope I can figure out how to turn it off though so I can play Halo 2 on xbox live.

Kabifff...

Are you going to use it? Really? :)

[hawkburn]

Ok question. I guess I was under the impression that I could disable the modchip. Well I did it, and it said "Call a tech" or something, the xbox main dashboard wouldn't show up, but it worked fine with the modchip re-enabled.

But I really wanted to play Halo 2 on xbox Live, but can't do so without disabling the modchip. Any ideas anyone?

HawkBurn,, that means you unlocked your hard drive, lock the hard drive in the chips bios and the main dash will work again



let me know if that works. Im pretty good with that system and if that doesent fix it tell me what erorr code it gives you --



I have a Xenium Ice, 160GB hard drive with about 60 games, and every singal EMU+ROMS that works on it + every APP you can run on it. you can even watch Divx movies on it

a modded xbox is the best thing you can do to a xbox as long as you do it right

[hawkburn]

Ok when I got the guy that put my modchip in (im a cunt when it comes to sodering) for me he also put in an extra 120 GB i had laying around. How would I go about locking the hdd? There's 3 switches on the external part of the modchip, 1 being enabled or disabled (i turned it to disabled and thats when it gave me the error), Protected and Unprotected (is this locked and unlocked?) and Bank 1 and Bank2 (memory I suppose)

Anything for that? and thats for your help.

Edit: I see in EvolutionX that you can select XBOX Dashboard.. and it boots into the regular xbox dash, although the modchip still shows the green power led, if I use LIVE that way will I still get banned?
