i *just* bought a new xbox from best buy like an hour ago (it's still unopened in the box) and wanted to figure out what version it was before i opened it so i'd still have a chance to return it. then i came across this thread. the serial number on my xbox isn't:

Serial Number v1.2 : XXXXXXX 30XXX
OR
Serial Number v1.3 : XXXXXXX 31XXX

it's: XXXXXXX 32XXX

i will more than likely return this xbox and try to acquire a 1.2 (or sooner) version. just wondering if anyone else came across this...

32xxx??? i want it!!! its a 1.3 im sure... unless of course its a new version like 1.4

So...since "the" SST49LF020 chip CANNOT be wired in "29-wire" mode, then do we have a list of the chips that will work?

And if we do, are there ones that are flashable via evox?

Clearly I'm wanting to find ways to mod a v1.3 xbox as "cheaply" as possible, as I'm sure everyone else is.

Props to the people who'll be able to tell...

if you do a search, or even just read the very first post in this thread you will find out that old 29wire eprom mods work, they are reflashable through evox aswell, theres plenty of info about this on XS, theyre often refered to as homebrew mods

i have the number 22 help plz

blindmist · « **Reply #25 on:** June 30, 2003, 09:32:00 AM »

22 is a v 1.0

1) Check the "manufacturing date".

You can even do this when your xbox is stick packed 'cause there's a small whole at the back of the xbox package where you can read the serial & manufacturing date.

The manufacturing date (MFG. DATE) is in international format : year-month-day
If the manufacturing date is prior August 2002 : you have a v1.0
If the manufacturing date is August 2002 or later : it can be a v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, or v1.3 ... try another test.

2) Check your Xbox bios/kernel version.

Goto the "settings" option in the XBOX menu and select "Sytem Info". You will see lots of legal text.
At the end of the txt you will see something like
K: 1.00.xxxx.01
D: 1.00.xxxx.01
If you don't see this you still have one of the first xbox versions (3944 - USA only) , so it's a v1.0
Check the K number.
If the xxxx = 4034 or 4036 or 4627 you have a v1.0
If the xxxx = 4817 or 4972 you have a v1.1

3) Check if there's a FAN on the GPU

Open your xbox and remove the HDD & DVD-ROM. If there's a fan on the gpu heatsink (next to cpu) you have a v1.0 , if there's no fan you have a v1.1

4) Check if there's a USB pcb

Open your xbox and check the USB chipset. If it's a separate pcb you have a v1.0 , if it's on the xbox motherboard you have a v1.1

5) LPC points

If the LPC points are filled it can be a v1.0 OR v1.1 , if they are empty it's a v1.1

6) Serial Numbers

Check digits 8 and 9 on your serial number.
14, 20, 21, 22 = 1.0
23 = 1.0 or 1.1
24, 25 = 1.1
30 = 1.2
31 = 1.3

25 is a 1.1 board. You might have a newer dashboard (such as 5101) if you've tried accessing Xbox Live from within a game (some games such as Return To Castle Wolfenstein have a 50MB dashupdate.xbe file which will update your dashboard).

I have a Green LE Xbox from the UK. It's a v1.2 manufactured in Feb with a Samsung drive. And yes, the Samsung drives are the best.
