My basic understanding of it is this... this stops the XBox from accessing live as long as the BIOS is loaded. This means that no matter what game you play it will not be allowed to access live in ANY WAY. So if it accesses it automatically or you select LIVE it does not matter.... the BIOS will stop it. Reading the NFO the only thing I believe there is a problem with is if you allow a game to update your dashboard.

There was some problems I think...
When you updated your xboxdash version with UC it will connect to live and u will get banned...
But if u allready got the new dasha nd updated it to 2.0 there shouldn't be any problems...

I have another question-

When I turned my chameleon off it booted back to MSdash as expected, but when i hit the eject button to put a disc in it didn't reset... does this mean my modchip is still on cause i'm sure it should reset.

thanks

It wont reset if it is at the MS Dashboard. It will only reset if it is in a game. If you used the chameleon software control as the instructions say then you are disabling the chip correctly.

It's a BIOS.. not a modchip.. read the tutorials about your modchip to learn how to flash with this BIOS. Mostly, it's using the "Flash BIOS" command in EvolutionX.

This is not a "How to Flash" thread, as it is a thread to provide details about the BIOS. Ask the proper forum about your modchip to learn how to flash your modchip.

shanafan, just a question, i have aladdin installed with m7 bios, i know that to enable the chip you need to press the on button for a second or more, right? then to play live just need to press the button and it will boot to ms dashboard so the chipp is off, is this right?

i have v1.0 with live 2.0 tag (i got it from a v1.4 back up)

do i miss something?

thanks

lancerx.. as I previously said, this is not a help topic to learn how to use a BIOS on your modchip. Ask the specific forum about your modchip to learn how to use it.

Just to clarify....if I have a Matrix chip and I use the eject button (after loading a game) to disable the modchip....will this work with these new bios'?  Or do these new bios' have the "ejectfix" thereby will not work with a Matrix chip?
Thanks.

You might want to ask that in the bios forum but I thought there were two versions of the bios out, one with ef and one without....  though I didn't upgrade to it yet so not sure.

Unfortunately, I think that all new BIOS releases from X2 are eject fix. So, stick with X2 4976.02, or get a new modchip  tongue.gif

BTW, you might want to read some tuts about installing an external switch on your Matrix. Doing that, you can use all newer BIOS that have come out.
