    ok so since i have two x boxs ( one modded and a factory one ) i decided to mod the factory one, so since im a noob i burned the freaking motherboard trying to solder the chip on ..... now i have to buy a new motherboard since im not planning on throwing the rest of the x-box away


    so i go to this web site and i see that they sell the motherboard i need and it already come pre modified with the aladdin chip the bad news for me is that they put this in huge fonts [bold]"This board will arrive with a legal Cromwell flash bios installed. When you power it on via the power button or eject you will be presented with a 3.01 flash bios screen. You will need to have a plan to flash the chip with another bios other than the included easy to use flash bios".[bold/] wtf i sthat suppossed to mean? does that means that i wont be able to play my backups? i have no idea were to find "the right kind of bios" starting because i dont even know which are the bios that i need in order to play my backups



    anyways can anybody help me figure out how to pull this off , im going to buy this premodified motherboard but i have no idea what do they means with all that bios crap? whats a cromwell? and which are the bios that i need to get ?

    rob,

    Just open the first rar file, then open the Auto.Installer.Deluxe.v3.0.Xbox-Hq folder and extract the iso which should be called Auto-Installer Deluxe v3.0.iso. Once you have that extracted, burn it as an image using Nero or Alcohol 120%.
