Make a bootable EvoX CD with the Flash Bios option in the menu, include a BIOS folder with your new bios in it.
You can then boot the CD, select Flash, and choose your bios.

Or just burn your bios to CD and use an application like dvd2xbox to copy the file from the CD into your C:BIOS folder when you get home.

can anyone let me know how to use this application to burn my bios on to a disk and put it on my xbox?

dvd2xbox is a file manager that runs on your xbox (at least the part you are interested in - it also rips CD audio and DVD).
You have to burn your bios to a CD on a PC first, just like any other file.
Then load dvd2xbox on your xbox and insert the CD.
It loads with big coloured buttons to press- can't go wrong really. Select the 2nd option and use the left & right frames to select the files you want to copy from the CD to your xbox (I can't give exact instructions here, but it works like most file managers.)
Did you get the compiled version (containing an XBE file) or just the source code? You need the compiled version (available in the 'usual places' - see #xbins IRC channel on EFNET server for more info).

Man, you should really go read some tutorials! ( http://www.xbox-scen...m/tutorials.php )

Anyway, you can't just burn xbox files to a standard CD format - it must be converted to XISO to be read by the xbox DVD.

1> Extract the dvd2xbox files into a folder on your PC
2> Get a program like 'SimpleX ISO' or 'Craxion' from http://www.xbox-scen...p?page=isotools
3> Select the 'Create XISO' or similar option, and choose the dvd2xbox folder from step 1
4> You will now have an ISO file which can be opened in your CD authoring software (eg NERO) using the BURN IMAGE option.
5> The contents of your ISO disc image will be burned to your CDR/W, which can then be booted by your xbox.

Ok, after all that do I just burn the bios to a disk or do I have to make an xiso out of that too...cause I don't think my xbox will read it...so I probably have to make an xiso for the bios...am I correct?

ps. thanks for all your help
