Well after all that I still have just one problem. I can't  find a bios that will run the xdk in 480p so i can work with it on my PC monitor? Any Ideas?? <

I actually think the x2vga changes an HD signal into RGB....If that helps. <

Hienrich, do you know how to adjust the launcher? Im pretty sure the launcher says that it shouldn't work on a monitor directly. However it didn't say that it didn't provide and HD siganl for TV...which is what the x2vga converts to 480p. If I can just make the launcher work in HD then the VGA adapter should do the rest...?

I think some of the bioses will patch it to VGA directly....But I don't need a VGA patch I need direct HD signal..... <

Weird I set it to all the high res settings...Only the dash is in 480p or higher! The launcher is still in 480i. I might have to live with it. If anyone has the launcher in 480p let me know.!! <

I had the same problem... you need to Hex Edit the xshell.xbe which should be in your c: directory.

I used UltraEdit and did a search for the following Hex bytes and then pasted the changes in and now I get 480p in debug mode.  I also used the iND BFM Bios so it recognises my 160gb F: drive.

I got the hex changes from the 480p thread by Raydn who is credited with discovering this change works on many games that were only 480i.


Replace

8B 57 28 50 8B 47 30-50 8B 47 2C 51 8B 4F 04 52

with:

50 8B 47 30 50 8B 47 2C 51 8B 4F 04 90 6A 00 90
