well, you can't exactly. if you burn evox to a x-box without a modchip and a bios, it won't read it. Thats why the bios has to be on the chip before you can even boot evox. Evox is unsigned code, so xbox will say "Not official X-Box Disc"

I am also receiving the following when I try to flash bios on my Matrix MOD Chip

CHEAPLPC on printer port at 0x378
LPC bus error - peripheral returned SYNC=0F
Error getting device ID at address FFC00000
Device not supported

I have tried multiple computers (as well as OS), with the same result.  Have a couple computers to try this on at home, will give it a shot there.

After failing to get it flashed, I attempted to reinstall the chip, now when I go through the alignment process; I get both a green and red flashing light on the LED.  Did I fry the MOD chip?



Thanks,

You plug the chip into the programmer then the chip into your computer. You should get a red CONSTANT light on, there is no mode for programming with the programmer, remember that.


Just keep trying different computers, you will find one eventually.

There is a patch you have to get if you plan on flashing the matrix on XP, i just don't know the link.

Also, just keep trying. The computer I did finally get mine working on was a windows 98 one. The Programmer is very sensitive to printer ports (for some reason) dear god, I can't wait until they release the DVD flash kit (and they better, i paid for it!)

Also, just burn evox to a cd-rw. Remember, even if your cd-rw has never been used before, do a full erase. I had to do that. also, it won't work the first time probably, just keep trying until you get it to work. I don't know how many times I had to reset my x-box because the cd wouldn't load. And I HIGHLY suggest putting evox dash on your HD to avoid these problems.

Well I've heard from a reliable source that the Xodus Team is not going to be writing the util (they never intended to), and instead are depending on the XBox hacker community to write it.  So it's sure looks like you and I payed for a non-existant program!
