Evolution X 1.8.2594 Won't Launch Anything

So you are saying that you can launch xbmpb6 and boxplorer?

I don't have any problems with the new Dash... Did you try to just Auto-Add the items and try it then?!

are you still using the old menu.ini, because that looks like it, there is a new ini file named evox and you need to put that in your c: partition instead of menu.ini

Sorry for the misunderstanding. When I was talking about xbmpb6 and boxplorer I meant they had that problem when I was using the old version of evox. The new version won't even launch them. I will try auto-adding them tonight.

Yes, I know about the evox.ini file and yes, it is in the c: drive.

I was also wondering if anyone had launching problems with either the new or old evox. Sometimes even the old evox would refuse to launch games/apps. To get an app to load I have to launch boxplorer (which seems pretty stable for the most part) and select the default.xbe from there because when I use evox on games or apps it will just sit on the green oval logo.

                                    I'll second that. After fooling around with it for a few hours tonight I have given up. I could get it to launch the games and apps about 1 in 10 tries. The old version would launch everything in about 8 of 10 tries. Maybe it is because of the upgraded HD I put in there. The new version seems to work better when I turn on the xbox after it has been sitting there cold for awhile. The drive I have is a Maxtor 100 gb 5400 rpm drive. Anyone else have an upgraded drive and problems with evox not lauching games or apps?

Well for now, I'm sticking with the old verson. Not much in the new version I'd want to upgrade to anyway.

BTW, I fixed the problem with xbmpb6 not returning to the dash when I press back - A. It used to only go back to the dash 1/2 the time, the other times it would just crash to a black screen. Now I modified the "xbpconfig.xml" file to see the xboxdash as the reboot file "reboot.xbe." Now instead of trying to reload the dash, it loads reboot.xbe and reboots the xbox back into evox. This has worked everytime I tried it, which leads me to think there is a problem with the evox dash files being unstable.

beerchug.gif  Have you tried using the default evox.ini file and adding one thing at a time to try and isolate what is causing the problem?  Thats where I would start.   smile.gif
