Flash Bios With Evox
« on: December 07, 2004, 09:34:00 AM »
What am I doing wrong? I have the m8 bios and evox running on a v1.3 xbox.  I just got the x3 1959.bin bios.  I put it into the C/Bios folder.  I then tried to flash it from the flashbios in evox.  It says !!Unknown Flash Type!!.  I am useing a x3 chip and would really appreciate it if someone could help me out!!!!

Oh yeah I also have flashbios v303.bin.  I tried that too!

I just got the x3 1959.bin bios. I put it into the C/Bios folder.

Rename the file to bios.bin You will also need to edit your .ini file for evox to recognise the modchip. Make your .ini look like this...
CODE
[BIOS]

#
ROM  = "EvoX 2.0",0x76fd88337b8d8c1f116f85f3984b98b6
ROM  = "EvoX 2.1",0x99487615bb30670cb65993388fcf2a63
ROM  = "EvoX 2.2",0x220ade778785cfc3c98bb5ea8bbd8608
ROM  = "EvoX 2.3",0xd79bc87c2caa1a50dcc7016adf2ccc0a
ROM  = "EvoX 2.4",0xe3ce66b99957a92fdac40af951c3f1fd
#
Flash           = 0x01AD,"XECUTER 3",0x100000
Flash  = 0x01d5,"AMD - Am29F080B",0x100000
Flash  = 0x04d5,"FUJITSU - MBM29F080A",0x100000
Flash           = 0xadb0,"Hynix HY29F002",0x40000
Flash           = 0xada4,"Hynix HY29F040A",0x80000
Flash           = 0xad23,"Hynix HY29F400T/AT",0x80000
Flash           = 0xadab,"Hynix HY29F400B/AB",0x80000
Flash           = 0xadb9,"Hynix HY29LV400T",0x80000


This is only part of of the .ini file
   Notice the X3 Flash           = 0x01AD,"XECUTER 3",0x100000

This will also need to be renamed to bios.bin as well. This is for your backup rom and I would recommend flashing via X3 liveconfig.

FUCK!!!! ok I pasted all that into my evox file and it worked.  But I hope that I am not royally fucked now.  I went to the flash bios and tried to flash it with the x3 1959 bios.  When I did so it erased my old one and bagan to replace it with the new one but... IT ONLY WENT HALF WAY!!!! the bar is half way accrossed and wont go any further.  I dont want to turn my xbox off cuz I know that if I do it will screw that bank.  It is the only one that I have!  What should I do!!!???

try to flash with another bios, or get a new copy of that binfile as it seem to be corrupt.
