I was reading around about the new X2 bios and I was wondering what anyone knew about it?  I got a 1.6 and the M8+16 isn't cutting it anymore.  Share what you know.  Whats the twist?

EvoX M8+ 1.6 or the 5838 retail BIOS.  That's the choice.

  Just out of curiosity, can someone give me their advice on the X2 4983.67 bios? I currently have a V1.0 xbox with an X2.1 and I updated to the 4981.67 when it came out but wanted to know if someone is currently using this bios would it be a good step up or not enough to bother with upgrading. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks! beerchug.gif


no real need thou you might like .06 better as you have no need for .67 with a 250gb

Mainly the .06 Large F: , is used when you set uo a new hard drive with no data...
.67 is F:  &  G: partition..Which will be f: up to 137gb and G: the rest....  This is only used really if data is on hard drive already. and you don't want to erase and start again, otherwise you will get data corruption...
The other time you would use it is when you have larger than 250gb hard..
Apparently over that size data corruption may occur because of the large partition size and a G: would be required...

Greatfully appreciated! I never really thought about why you would do one way or the other. I was planning to completely re-do my hdd to a fresh state and wasn't sure wether or not to use the large f: or the f: & g:. Thanks again!
