    So is that the only way i can flash the BIOS? Using a CD/DVD?

    Oh by the way, can i create BIOS files using Xecuter 2 BIOS Manager?

    I made a checklist of things i need to do to make my xbox properly modded. Do you think this is correct? And is it in the right order? And are there any other things i should add to it?


    1. Acquire and correctly install Xecuter 3CE modchip.
    2. Acquire and correctly install new hard drive fore the X-Box.
    3. Acquire and correctly install any other items, e.g. fans and X3 Control Panel.
    4. Download FlashFXP.
    5. Establish network connection between X-Box and computer.
    6. Download, burn, and correctly install Evolution X or Avalaunch dashboard.
    7. Download mIRC.
    8. Download the latest Xecuter BIOS from XBins.
    9. Flash the BIOS.
    10. Download a copy of Qwix or Craxtion depending on dashboard.

    I'd also have to suggest following the link Return gave you. I used that for my first install and everything worked great. I chose and installed the X3 instead of the Smart, by the way.

    What to do before buying modchip:
    Download and install:
    - flashfxp
    - winrar
    - iso softwares like xISO, SimpleX, Quix, Craxtion, etc...

    Download and burn iso to CD/DVD:
    - bios (read instruction)
    - autotinstaller disk (Burn it like burn game search for tutors)

    here is the shotscreens

    here the lists:
    - know your xbox version
    - read instruction to install modchip (solderless adapter is easiest to install)
    - read instruction to flash bios
    - Establish connection
    - install dashboard by using autoinstaller disk

    1) Do i install the autoinstaller on my xbox or pc?
    2) If i install the autoinstaller on my pc, how do i install dashboards onto my xbox?
    3) If i install it on my xbox, how do i do that?
    4) How do i actually get onto the flash BIOS screen?
    5) When i have downloaded an Xecuter BIOS from XBins, do i have to get it on my xbox? If so, how do i do that?
    6) What do i do after i have flashed the BIOS?
    7) How do i get games to stay on my xbox HDD (so i dont have to use a disc)
    8) Do i have to download FlashBIOS 3.0.3, if so, where do i get it? And do i have to put it on my xbox via FlashFXP?

    1) Do i install the autoinstaller on my xbox or pc? XBOX

    2) If i install the autoinstaller on my pc, how do i install dashboards onto my xbox? N/A

    3) If i install it on my xbox, how do i do that? AFTER FLASH BIOS XBOX WILL READ THE AUTOINSTALLER CD/DVD THAT YOU BURN.

    4) How do i actually get onto the flash BIOS screen? IF YOU INSTALL MODCHIP RIGHT. TURN ON XBOX YOU WILL SEE "FLASH BIOS 3.0.3".

    5) When i have downloaded an Xecuter BIOS from XBins, do i have to get it on my xbox? BURN IT TO CD/DVD. If so, how do i do that? READ INSTRUCTION HOW TO BURN.

    6) What do i do after i have flashed the BIOS? INSTALL DASHBOARD BY UISING AUTOINTALLER CD/DVD.

    7) How do i get games to stay on my xbox HDD (so i dont have to use a disc) INSTALL APPS FROM AUTOINSTALLER DISK.

    8) Do i have to download FlashBIOS 3.0.3, if so, where do i get it? IT COMES WITH MODCHIP.

    So anything that i am going to install on my xbox, i have to use a burnt CD/DVD. So i cant use FTPing cant i? Oh, and just say i burnt an app onto my xbox, what would happen when it boots up? Also, do you have to put the autoinstaller on your hard drive?

    Oh by the way, thanks soooooo much for the answers. Dude, you rock. Thanks man
