hey guys i been reading alot of people saying once they upgrade there bios to the 4977 with lba48 bios that they loose the IGR. Is this a bug, or something that needs to be looked into?

I know when i used dominion x bios no IGR was available, but thats just the bios

juan23 · « **Reply #107 on:** September 04, 2003, 12:34:00 PM »

okay 4977bios is working 100% with large hdd patch.

I think i realized what i was doing, when u download xbtool, there are 2 folders that have the exe for the program, i was going into the 2nd folder which had all the older .dll files, amongst other pre-release.

went to 1st xbtool, loaded everything just fine

great job all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HELP...

i have a 160G Maxtor 5400 RPM ATA133 HD... X2.0 Lite mod chip... BIOS 4977 original, which i loaded, and added LBA support. i flashed BIOS, rebooted with Slayers, formated and still have 129G F drive :/ i went through all this with a buddy and he can't figure it out either, he's been successful 3 times now but i can't get mine to go!

i lost all my xbox games for this... and my PC drive, long story... please, if someone know's what i can do that be great.

You chose the "partition 6 takes rest of drive" option in Xbtool? (You're sure you didn't choose "partition 6 takes up to 137gb / ..."?)

i have the 4978.03 release of the X2 BIOS and now my IGR dosnt work correctly... it just goes to a black screen. should i go back to the 4977 release for the time being ? is anyone else getting this ?

Hath · « **Reply #111 on:** September 05, 2003, 08:10:00 AM »

i downloaded latest version of xbtool. the drop down menu on the lba48 support only has one choice...i have a new 200 gig hdd, not formated....so ide like to throught the rest of the space on "F" any advice. I assume i just check "put rest on partition 6" but again i dont have that option on the pull down screen in xbtool.

thanks for the help

Open the pull down menu! To the right of the only option you can see, are two tiny buttons. Use them to make your choice!

O.K. I'm trying to take the plunge.
I have a 160GB. I do not want to disrupt my F part. I do wish to add G.
I am using 4976.02.
I have XBtool open right now, do I select "Ignore Harddrive Partition Table"?

, thanks so much!

|MonKey| · « **Reply #115 on:** September 05, 2003, 09:29:00 AM »

if it works for you, im at a total loss of why this isn't working for me...

There's no need to modify evox.ini if you're only going to use drive F:. If you want to add drive G:, you'll have to wait until I've released my patched version of the EvoX dashboard (with G: support).

boxorox: PaulB needs to release a patch still if you want to utliize the G drive in Evox..

I want to just add G for everything over my existing partitions.
Can anyone tell me if I should select "Ignore hard drive partitions" on XBtool?

cgladue · « **Reply #118 on:** September 05, 2003, 09:44:00 AM »

no, select partion6 up to 137GB / partition7 takes the rest

Thanks, I know that already. There is another selectable box, besides that, that is called "Ignore hard drive partitions".
I don't think I should select it but I want to be sure.
