Your modchip WILL be detected with this technique...read the end of this thread:

If you read the post closely, Snooze is booting to Evox, turns off modchip and uses a backup.  Bearuto is doing different.  He turns off the modchip and plays his original games.  This might actually work since the original bios have no way of looking at F drive.  Good job.  Anyone else did this?  I'll try it once I get to flash my TSOP.

I just read the xbox live theory written by Xbitez from xbox-info.

He seems to believe that the dashboard is one of the culprit. By running the ms dashboard while the modchip is on, a flag would be set to tell the service that the xbox is hacked.

In my case, it could be why I am still working, I didn't run any movies or the ms dashboard while running Evox. If his theory is true, then I am very lucky that I didn't do it. As of now, I will disable any access to original dashboard from evox.

I have done just what you said dalailama.  I removed any way of getting to the ms dash  with my chip on.  I am using a pc-bioxx with the evox 2.6 F boot bios.  I have all my games and evox files on the F partition of a 60GB locked hdd.  Whenever I want to play live I boot w/the eject button which disables the mod.  Booting with the power button can only get me to the evox dash.  Now all I have to be careful of is NOT picking any of the live options in my games while the chip is on.  Although I think I may just take any live enabled game off my hdd altogether just to be on the safe side.

I'm going to try out this method this weekend, but I need to find out how to make a multipart bios image (with 2 bios's).  Hopefully someone can post how to make your own here.  Thanks for any help.

This will create a 1mb bios file from 2x 256k bin files
Create a batch file (make1mb.bat) with the following :

@ECHO OFF
REM YEah yeah, it sucks it might not work for you..
REM - Superfro
REM

if "%1"=="" goto usage
if "%2"=="" goto usage
if NOT EXIST %1. goto notfound
if EXIST %3. goto duh
copy /b %1 + %1 + %2 + %2 %3
dir %2

echo Output file '%3' has been created!
goto exit

:duh
echo Output file '%3' Allready exists, delete it first.
goto exit
:notfound
echo Input file '%1' is not found!
:usage
echo Usage is: make1mb {input 256k bios} {output 1meg bios}

:exit


then you go command prompt : make1mb.bat 1stbios.bin 2ndbios.bin targetname.bin
