Why do u need to eject the DVD tray in and out? i thought that w/ a mod chip there's no need for a boot cd.
sorry, i'm a noob

correct me if I'm wrong but won't the new exec BIOS work on a matrix chip anyway ?? or are they going with a BIOS larger then 256

Great news!

Now I hope it doesn't screw up those screwy multi-button game cheats, my daughter would kill me if it did!

Why are matrix people going to hate this? It's not harming them at all. It might even make it's way to a new 256k bios version. So matrix people might just be loving this.

Weren't we all waiting with baited breath for the release of the 1-wire, fully flashable mod from the X-ecuter camp a few months ago?
If memory serves me correctly, they did release it, but it had a few shortcomings.
It did only have 1 wire, but you also needed to get out the soldering gun for installation.
And it turns out it wasn't flashable........

So maybe we can be forgiven if such news from the X-ecuter team fails to rouse our excitement to an exuberant fervor.
X-ecuter dropped the ball, Matrix picked it up and ran with it, and now X-ecuter is coming off the disabled list and wants another crack at the number 1 position.
But maybe it's too late, as some Matrix owners will attest.

When in XCommander both triggers + the black button gets you back to the EvolutionX dash...same as reset...and using EvoX 2.5!! I think that InvaderX does this also...so this is a feature that is independent of the BIOS. Perhaps its all in default.xbe...

My 2 year old would be really upset too.

She likes to use the second controller and pretend she's playing aswell.

Don't tell me to unplug it, cause she just puts it back in.

Good first post Fry (is your name from Futurama?).

I think you nailed it on the head. Most of us have the reset on controller now, and having a button sequence that is stated, will probably be no different than the reset button, as in, when the XBox locks up, you still have to get up to turn it off/on. Hopefully I am wrong, but isn't this "reset" trick already incorporated into a lot of EMUs? When they lock up, I can not use my reset button or button combo to get out of it. No reason the think this would fix that problem.

Actually, emu's lock up quite often, and games seem to be about 20% of the time for me. That is why I put the reset in, plus not having to walk 20 feet to my xbox to change games. It does work when things don't lock up, but from experience, I have had more lockups than not and the reset switch has only come in handy less than 50% of the time.

whoa that is such a way off statement it is not even funny. You can't compare team xecutor with team matrix.

Matrix may have made good hardware (Albiet retarded that green doesn't mean it is aligned correctly) but have not done any programing and have not picked up the xecutor ball....if they did they would also have made advancements in bioses and maybe programed a few other things....

Please think before you speak.... THanks

Maybe now we can put this to rest and start talking about something else...
