I have been trying to make a flash cd for my spider chipv1.1 i have a x box v1.0 and the only bios I have is X2_4983.06 can i take my x box hard drive out and hook it up to my computer and move the flash to the x box hard drive would that work if so how do I go about doing that. is there a band of cdrw's that work the best for flahshing the dvd drive in the x box is a thompason x box v1.0 spider chip v1.1

 

if you have the new flashbios you can flash over the network...network flashing is simple, great feature.

did you rename the bios? did you add a dummy file when you burned the disc?

 

Yeah I renamed the X2_4983.06 bios file to bios.bin and used a program I found to make a dummy file 100mb I did a dvd data disc I draged the bios.bin file and the dummy file over and clicked burn the files show up when i check it on my computer but when i try it in my x box it just says no bios found halting.

 

does your modchip have a flash protect switch?


are you sure you didn't rename it to bios.bin.bin?

 

I don't have a flash protect switch i have a on and off switch that turns the chip off but i did notice sometimes when i drag the bio.bin file over it turns to bios.bin.bin.

 

find your bios file and right click on it, select rename, type bios

 

so just rename it bios not bios.bin

 

Also I'm using FUJIFILM DVD-R for data and video up to 8x speed. and a pioneer dvd writer

 

the bios is already a .bin file so if you rename it bios.bin, it will be bios.bin.bin

try burning at a slower speed, like 2x

 

ok thanks should I use a cdrw or can i use the fujifilm dvd-r disc i have. also if i use a cdrw disc what brand should i get.

 

are you sure you even have a bios? i just read another one of your posts and you didn't even have a bios.

the x2_4983 should be 256k in size

you can try a cdrw

 

i Have one called X2_4983 just not sure if it is the right one.

 

that will work for 1.0-1.5 xbox's

 

ok i'm going to try it with a dvd-r fuji film data disc and rename the X2_4983.06 to bios 100mb dummy file i will let you know how it goes.

 

does the x box hard drive need to be unlocked when i put the flash cd in or no.

 

no

 

Man you or awsome it worked perfect thank you alot that was the problem i was renameing it bios.bin no one told me not to you rock thank you thnak you very much.

 

Is there anything else that i need to install what about slayer auto install.

 

most people install a dashboard and apps....slayer's is a autoinstaller that will install everything for you...no need to ftp with a autoinstaller.

 

What about auto-installer.deluxe v1.01 i read here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/141037 that i need a dash board because i need to hook the x box up to my computer to make back up game. is this true and do you know where i can find a dash board that wiil work with my setup.
