Want To Update My Bios
« on: July 04, 2005, 06:25:00 PM »

alright I have the xecuter2 bios i believe the 4081 something with the 81 at the end sorry I do not totally know the full version number.  But is flashing your BIOS easy like I am been having lots of problems with my xbox in general lately things not laoding and just problems?  And i was thinking that if i updated my BIOS maybe that would solve something.  so do i have to open up my box to flash them i have a TSOP mod can you do that?

thanks for you help

also I was wondering if there was a way to completely get everything off my hd except for my games and gamessaves and reinstall all my apps and stuff because i have some files that are missing from files and scattered files that i do not need in some folders...everything is very disorganized!!!!! and i am very anal about things being organized lol sorry

thanks again

one more thing thanks umm is there a dvd drive that you can put into your xbox that can burn dvd's for straight from the xbox?

Don't bother upgrading your bios if you have a TSOP, you will probably not see any difference, and on top of that you risk messing up your xbox good and being forced to put in a mod chip to fix it.  PS: I believe your bios is X2 4981.

Not a problem - Just FTP in to your xbox from your computer and clean up whatever you don't like from the hard disk.  Don't touch UDATA, TDATA, CACHE on E:, and make sure to leave your games alone (usually in E:\games or F:\games)

No. You can't burn dvds with your xbox without using linux.. too much of a pain in the ass for someone like you who seems pretty new to this.
