Ask any XBOX question and it shall be answered ! HERE

MR DOOM, i believe soo, just check the hard drive Compatibility charts before wasting money buying one,

XBOX HDD compatibily chart

but if you dont see ur HD there since thts a pretty outdated chart, just give it a shot, and try use the hard drive you buy but yea, my XBOX before i sold it had a 1TB HDD and sold it for £699 coz it had a collection of everything xbox related...

 

Thanks Mr.Vegeta

What????You had a xbox with a tera HD?I knew ide hard drives arrive at 750 gb,that's why i bought this one!Or did you use a sata converter?
I'm a xbox fanatic,so i'm very interested of these things,tell me i'm curious..

 

Well because ur a smart mouth you just sed the answer mate, use a sata => IDE converter... £699 for a collectors edition XBOX... sold it last year, kept it for 6 years just collecting and burning games to it
...
Well your welcome mate any time... PM me any questions you got, or holla at me on MSN if yu have it, im flexible to help...

 

I have my xbox connected to my Sky modem and that wirelessly gives me the internet on my laptop. I had it working a few days ago when rebooted my xbox with SlaYer 2.7. I reinstalled everything, made xbmc my dashboard and so on, FTP'd it with CoreFTP. Turned my xbox off then put it back on and it wont automatically pick up the connection again.

The light on the front of the modem keeps flashing on and off too... The modem model is a Sagem.

Ive looked at a million forums but they all have similar problems but not exactly mine.

I know this a problem that pops up in forums all the time put they dont specifically help!

Just wondered if any one would like to help me please?

 

Call me a reatard but whats the problem ? Exacly ?

 

I can't FTP mate...

 

Safee mate... u need to set up the Ip Adress agen to somehting lie ... 192.168.1.3 for FTPing... 192.168.1.1 for internet or something like tht...if you had Linux Dual Boot on ur XBOX, since linux supposidly picks up the internet connection automatically because it configures everything itsself, watever dashboard you switch thru it'll configure that for you in the background but seeing as you dont, u need to configure the network settings agen from scratch...

 

I dont really know what Linux is?... Especially using it with the xbox? :S

 

Linux is an Operating system which is compatible with the XBOX system, you can transform your XBOX into a Low end PC, using it basically for your office work and using Linux compatible Work suits... its like windows, but for the XBOX in general...

 

Right o... Im just running the slayer EvoX auto installer boot disk i have again to see if it it will pick up the connection automatically again.

Ive tried a few times to set up the network from scratch but it jus wont work for me and its just becoming to frustrating! Aha...

 

THe easiest DashBoard to FTP from is the EvoX Dash,...u need me to explain how ? like how to set it up from scratch ?

 

The light on the front of the modem is flashing on and off what do you think that could mean mate?...

 

If you can connect to the internet on your laptop, the internet connection is fine, Just a problem with the XBOX and make sure that you set your IP to static when trying to FTP ...

 

Aye please...

 

"
1. click start menu
2. select 'run'
3. type in 'cmd' (winxp,2000) or type in 'command' for win95/98 etc
4. type 'ipconfig /all' or 'winipconfig'
5. it will show you all your pc network settings.
6. write them down
7. my home pc ip is 192.168.0.1 with a subnet of 255.255.255.0. So just use this as a example.
8. I have my xbox setup with a static ip address of '192.168.0.2' with a subnet of '255.255.255.0' and a gateway of '192.168.0.1'. And have the static switch under xbox setting switched to 'YES' static..
9. reboot your xbox

IMPORTANT:
- if you are connecting directly from your network card to your xbox you should be using a crossover.
- if you are connecting from your hub/switch router etc to your xbox use a normal rj45 network lead..

my flashfxp settings:
example:
ip: 192.168.0.2 Port: 21
user: xbox
pass: xbox

press the 'f5' key to refresh when connected.. "
And voila

 

Sorry i ment the light that relates to the cable connected to the xbox...

 

Ive tried this but i think this is where it gets confusing these are my settings and im runnig vista?!...

Wireless LAN adapter Wireless Network Connection:

Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : home
Link-local IPv6 Address . . . . . : fe80::2408:e67c:f813:f1f8%11
IPv4 Address. . . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.3

Default Gateway . . . . . . . . . : 192.168.0.1

 

Ok again... if u can connect to the internet with ur laptop, nothings wrong, if you cant connect to your XBOX, its the XBOX itself, you need to configure it... and ive given u a guide to setting it up for FTPing on EvoX dash...

 

OK I'll try it step by step like you said mate and i'll get back to you... Cheers

 

Cheeerrrs mateee... if it works, leave me alone and go play some halo 2 hahahah jus kiding man, get back to me...
