any fix for config inject works now?  wink.gif

I just put this bios on my chip and I love it.  No problems installing at all really.  I noticed a few issues with the config maker, it seemed like it would not load all of the colors for the X logo or the flubber that I had saved.  Besides having to reselect a color or 2 each time I had no issues and I love it.  The load time is a little slower but not really by that much and you only need to turn on ur xbox once to start playing....

Keep up the great work guys, I am going to continue to use this bios for awhile.  Specially since the new X3 bios is only going to work on the X chips!  This is going to be the bios that I will be following for new releases.

That major thing I would love to see in a bios is FTP or giving the ability to map a network drive.  Would be handy because I could copy over all my MP3 and still access them from my computer and play them WHILE I am playing an xbox game.

Also, this idea may seem a little out there...I had posted in the software dev forum but they said it was more of a bios issue.  Would it be possible to setup network and stream a program from a networked computer harddrive?  The gamecube supports streaming, although in a very different way but it seems to me if you could impliment network support into the bios then it should be possible to design a way that a dashboard could load a program and stream it over the network.  This would save a lot of time with burning dvds or wasting them on bad burns.  Would also be easy to deal with the whole xbox defrag issue and long file name issue if you could run all the programs off a comp harddrive since you can defrag a comp hd easy and ntfs will support such huge file names.

I dont know a whole lot about xbox hacking or bios making but I am in my second year as a CS major with some networking experience and it seems like it SHOULD be possible to do this, although a lot of work I am sure.  

I thought I remembered seeing that the xenium OS 2 supported networked ability inside the BIOS so you could flash or install a dash right over the network without ever having to burn an installation cd (def saves issues with the crappy drives not reading media).

Here is another crazy idea I was thinking about and saw in a different thread....

Would it be possible to add a type of "save state/load state" like emulators use in the bios?  It seems to me this would have to be in the bios since the dash is not running at the same time as the program.  It would probably be hard to setup I am sure, but dont really know since I dont fully understand how emulators work to do it in the first place.

If you could develop a bios that has a save state support in it you would be like king of all bios I think...

I dont know if you would need to see a menu necessarily... You could make it a certain combination of buttons, kind of like how the in game resets work...

Support something like 3 or 4 different save states for each game:
left trigger, right trigger, back are the constants then picking any 1 of 4 other buttons will save your state in that slot.  Each of the colored buttons could be a different save state then.  So...
to save in slot one I hit left, right, back, and x
to save in slot two I hit left, right, back, and a
to load from slot one I hit left, right, start, and x

That type of setup would work fairly well I believe.  

So yeah, I guess the issue is how long it would take to do.  If states are done from memory dumps I am guessing it would take a short while to do, but I dont know if it would take all THAT long and it would be GREATLY helpful imo anyway.

Save-state would be very hard if not impossible, I think it's been discussed before.

With an emulator of a classic system (lets say, SNES), a save-state is just that, a dump of the entire memory map as well as all the registers.

With the xbox, it'd be much harder.  You're dealing with virtual memory and caching, which to load and save exact copies would be orders of magnitude more complex.

Try using the default config that is supplied and paste in your changes.
I have exactly the same problems and have found the above to work. I just need to test more to find out what can be removed or modified.
Eventually I would like an XBMC bios with no ani, an XBMC logo and text only.
