Once I learn more and get some hands on with modchips, I will post and help other users.

yes you can flash other banks besides 0. yes you can boot from another bank and flash the other banks (with an edited evox.ini file). the latest evox has a setting to control the led (the bios doesn't control it). go with x2_4977 or x2_4979.67 bios's. the install is the same as 1.0,1.1,1.2 except 1.0 and 1.1 have solder filled lpc points.

Your in stock? I am not sure I want to order from you after reading all the posts about your lack of tracking and shipping process. Also the crediting of money. Give me faith..

QUOTE (Rambo47 @ Dec 16 2003, 07:01 AM)
Are you sure in stock? On initial item description it says "Availability: Fully in stock ships same day you order!!" - However did you look at the shopping cart portion after you clicked add to cart????  It says "BACK ORDERED ETA DECEMBER 19th Chameleon LES p&e"

Let me know if I am wrong on your order.  I TOO need one of these!!

Thanks

I ordered mine last friday and got a tracking number yesterday, so I can only assume that yes, my order is on the way!  modchip.ca is a bit more expensive than some of the other sites, but if you live in canada you save that $ on the low shipping charges.  I did not get that 'backordered' message when adding to my cart so it looks like unfortunately you may have to wait sad.gif - dec 19 is only 3 days away though!

I woudn't buy from EasyBuy2000 especially after the official news release of Team Xodus disconnecting themselves from there.

I have read conflicting information on whether it is necessary to remove the solder from the LPC points for an install on v1.0 -1.1 when using the solderless adapter that comes with the LE - can someone give a definitive answer?

Thanks for the info pontfirebird73 -  can you only flash other banks with evoX? I was interested in knowing if you could do it from CD -

I'm having an issue with a cham le s p/e on a v1.0 box,
was hoping someone could help.

I installed the chip without a hitch, powered up and installed
the evox m7 dash.  Now I thought I would test the different
bank/disable option. I've held the eject button down three
seconds, held the power button down three seconds, held
them both down for three seconds.....

All I get is the same evox bios screen w/ xbox in red.

Should I see the Chromwell bios in the other banks?

Should I see the original green xbox when the chameleon
is shut off?

Is there a way to check the p/e points?


Thanks.

@petegas  there are dipswitch settings to boot from diferant banks (once a differant bank boots you can flash that bank with a cd) just read manual on xodus-chips.com.

@baracuda1  that only works if you are in mode4 dip1&2 on 4&5 off

you have to flash the bios before you can use slayer's install disc - the linux bios shipped with the chip will not boot your custom apps - its only purpose (unless you want to run linux) is to allow you to flash the bios.  Follow the detailed instructions on Xodus site (or here on xbox-scene) about how to burn a cdrw with a scene bios to flash

Thanks Petegas.  That did not occur to me since the site said pre-programmed.  I will have to look for executor 2 bios code then I suppose.  It is always fun (NOTjavascript:emoticon(':angry:')
javascript:emoticon(':angry:')) to look for things that does not suppose to be available anywhere.javascript:emoticon(':(')
