Return/t Xbmc/a Pld Game?
« on: January 23, 2005, 04:19:00 PM »

Hey.

I have just bought this new 1.6 Xbox and gotten XBMC installed as the dashboard. I have set up Xlink kai for playing games at it just runs perfect.

But there's one thing buggin me: Every time Im finished playing a game I have to move my ass all the way over to the Xbox and shut it of and then turn it back on to load it to XBMC.

Is there any way I can restart the Xbox from the controller or even return to XBMC without restarting?

Additional info:
Xbox 1.6. modded with Aladdin lite in "always on" mode.
All the games are stored in the hardrive.
I don't know what bios verstion as I haven't learned to:
1. Recognice the current bios version
2. Flash a new on the xbox.
If the solution includes bios flashing... bring it on.. :D

Hope someone can help a lazy happy Xbox owner.

Best Regards
Martin Madsen

Get the m8+ bios.

Then get EVTool from http://home.alltel.net/nghtshd/evtool.html and patch it with IGR.

(Now you can also edit the bios boot path so it boots to XBMC directly when you turn on the XBox)

Flash the outputed bios and you have IGR when you press start+back+left and right trigger together.

Okay thanks a lot. Ill try that..

Do you have any tut's in flashing the bios as I haven't tried it before.
Where can I get the M8+ bios?

About the boot direct into XBMC my Xbox is already doing that. Do you mean that I need to do something special with evtool to make it load XBMC after the bios flash?

Thanks for you help so far.
