Disabling Chameleon
« on: August 25, 2003, 03:44:00 AM »

I take that back guys, I can switch banks no problem, appearently the only problem I have no is the "switch to TSOP" option in Chameleon Mode 1.  Does anyone have a idea what's going on?

Does the X2_4977 supports the  no reset on eject option like the Evox D.6 Eject fix?

Do you think you can post your evox.ini so I can see what you did and compare it to mine?

Where am I going wrong?
I replaced my HD with a Maxtor 160G and it is locked.

What do you have your MS dashboard named?  In order to have it boot to the MS dashboard when cham is disabled but evox dashboard otherwise, you need to name your evox dashboard "evoxdash.xbe" and your ms dashboard "xboxdash.xbe".

Exactly as was stated above, you MUST have the original dashboard properly renamed.  You do have a backup of it on your HD yes???

I do have one labled exoxdash.xbe and one labeled xboxdash.xbe but it still crashes to error 21.
I never did anything with xbox live either should I remove it?

If you installed with Slayers, that version of Live was installed by that disk.  Dammit, we have two conversations going on.

If you cannot get it to work, email me and I will send you a backup file of my c drive if you want. Or just rename msxboxdash.xbe back to xboxdash then your evox dash to evoxdash.xbe if you have any more problems remember to back up your drives when you first get ftp enabled.It  will save you trouble later on

Hi,

yes, the X2 4977 has also the "No Reset on Eject".
If you have a look into the Readme of the Bios

Changelog
Changes 4976.02->4977:
- Permanent No Reset On Eject - Finally got around to adding this - HATED to have it reset in xbox media player :-)


Have a nice day
