My friend's XBOX has a bad DVD drive. It will read games, but they're always glitchy and they freeze often. If he gets a mod chip and backs his games up to the hard drive and no longer uses the DVD drive, will they work properly? Also, would there be any problems flashing the BIOS or setting up EvoX because of that? Thanks!
well u could always buy a new drive online (but make sure it's a samsung..) and get a chip too can never go wrong with that. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Hail To The Redskins![/small]
ok it all depends do you want to mod that xbox or not? if so get a chip... if not don't get one. now about the drive just buy a new one on evay or another trusted site online... just make sure it's a samsung drive...
Let me get this straight: Say my friend doesn't want a mod chip, but he just wants a new DVD drive. Could he get one and just replace his current DVD drive (regardless of what brand it is now) and it would work? Or, is a mod chip needed to recognize the new DVD drive?
you DON'T need a chip in order for it to work.. just buy the new drive and replace it with the old one... thats it.
snoosy , you have to buy a replacement xbox dvd drive. Not any dvd drive that works in your computer, but an official xbox one. And buy a samsung one like the they say above.
^ yeah... when i was refering to samsung i meant a xbox samsung drive not just any old samsung... but i never though i would need to say that lol
Heh yea I knew that much. My friend will most likely just buy a new drive. His drive was a Thompson, luckily I got a Samsung and never had any problems.
