^bump^...just tried flashing the same chip on a 1.0 box...same thing...worked fine before the flash...I used the Eurasia Flash disc and now the eject led flashes red/green and wont do anything....

Which side are you flashing? I just flashed mine over HTTP without any problem at all. Here's what I did:

1. Boot from flashBios side
2. Flip switch on chip
3. enable network flashing
4. flash with X2 5035

I was trying to flash bank 0, just as listed on duomods site...my son was crying while it was flashing, when I came back in, it was off...when I turned it back on, it powers up and down 3 times and then flashes red/green...

Flip the swtich and see if you can boot to another bank. If you can boot to the other bank, once booted flip the switch back and reflash that bad bank.

Good Luck

OK both you guys have flashed a 256k bios onto your Duo X2 and now it just frags !

Yes ?

you know you did ... anyway you need to download ...

http://home.alltel.n...shd/evtool.html

http://home.alltel.n...shd/xbtool.html

Grab EVTOOL to edit Evox M8 Bios or grab XBTOOL if you wanna edit X2 bios.

Now load either program up on your computer and then the bios you want to use. It will show 256k bios size. Click on the 512k and save the bios. Now burn the bios disc again.

Now you have a good bios on cdrw or dvd-r. Dont use CDR or DVD+R as the xbox dont like em. Burn at 4x cdrw or 1x dvd-r.

Flick the bank switch ( little switch on modchip ) and hopefully it boots to flashbios and you can choose flash bios from cd and insert your cdrw/dvd-r with the new bios on it.

If it boots cromwell bios then use the eurasia disc to boot it.

If you can boot no matter what way the switch is you will have to hotswap using another chip to fix this.

Hotswap to flash tutorial !

Go into the BIOS forums and search for flashbios. you find find a link to download the file you need. Grab shepd's awesome flashbios 3.01-3 unless you have a xbox v1.6b then you will need the flashbios 3.03. These are the unoffical versions are are not the normal xectuer ones ... they are much better. but do not use the eeprom options or you will kill your xbox !

Save the flashbios onto your desktop and rename it to 256k.bin then run the command prompt in win xp and type in this stuff (you will have your username instead of hackdabox) type this ..

C:/>Documents and Settings/HackDaBox>cd desktop
C:/>Documents and Settings/HackDaBox/Desktop>copy /b 256k.bin 256k.bin BIOS.BIN
C:/>Documents and Settings/HackDaBox/Desktop>exit

OK now you will have a BIOS.BIN that is 512k and ready to flash to your other bank

He said the chip was blank

The only way to flash a blank chip is to hot swap it with another one.

My bad...I was about to fall asleep at the keyboard when I posted....he is right, you'll have to hotswap it with another chip....
