Hey,

I flashed from X2 4981 to M8 LBA48/IGR.

avalaunch (my dash) loads up fine, but when I select something to load game or other application it just hangs on the loading screen.

Flashed back to X2 4981 and all it good.

Was using a 06 bios for both.

Strange.

- Edirol

I'm guessing you are using an x2 chip? most likely a lite? and are loading the bios from the first bank?

duudfromnorway, if "way better" means the xbox live block, then sure..
and dont forget not everyone has the option of an x2 bios, as they have a 1.6 xbox.

There was a post that the M8 BIOS had better video output quality since it was based on a newer kernel. Better colors etc

Now then, don't believe everything you read on the Internet wink.gif
You will note the brevity of that thread, I think more would have been made of it if it were, in fact, a major advance.
Truth - you couldn't help wondering what it was like? Same here, no bloody reason to change from 4983 apart from hating the flubber/colour and not wanting to go back to 4981. M8 changed in EVtool seems pretty good to me - but no change in colour/video quality. It is just Heaven for 1.6 owners, tho'. wink.gif  wink.gif
