Eject Fix will stop the xbox resetting when you eject the DVD. The other version will make the xbox reset just like normal when you eject the DVD.

everything should run just fine with xecuter 4981, if you have evox as your primary dash then turn off IGR.

I hear of 10x more problems with the later x2 bios's then I have ever heard about an evox bios.  While Evox doesnt have quite as many features, I think it is much more reliable.

also.. check that your time is set correctly.  The later x2 bios' seem to muck with the time more often then they should.

I will never flash another xbox with a x2 bios unless they sort out the problems. I've had quite a few "customers" (I reflash tsops for friends) come back complaining vice city doesn't work. I hate losing IGR but I love avalaunch too much for evox.

Funny it always used to be X2 was the better bios and evox IGR was crashing games. Now Evox IGR is as good as X2 and it's X2 new bios that's crashing games.
