Ok, I wanna buy a modchip. Soldering and prices aren't an issue.
I want to...

Download games/movies on the HD
Play movies no matter what region they are.
Play games no matter the region.
Play movies that aren't copyright protected
Use XBMC or XBMP, whichever is better (Which is better?)
Play modded maps and such with Halo.
Emulate.
I don't want to use Xbox Live. I bought another console for that.
I also don't want to use keyboards/mice; just a controller.
I also would like to do whatever other cool things every modder must be able to do

heheh, when did I say that...

j/k. Thanks for the heads-up.
I'll research tsop, thanks.
btw, XBMC is just a beta, but it still works right? I'm assuming updates/patches will be released...

If you dont want live, Id definitely go for a tsop flash. Once you have the tools needed it shouldnt take more than 15 min tops.

bah... and whatif you accsidently write over the tsop and corrupt it? then you are screw'd

acemilo · « **Reply #7 on:** August 19, 2004, 01:46:00 PM »

If you do it right it wont get corrupted, and even if it does he can always get a chip to fix it. I say dont buy a chip unless you need to.

I don't really feel comfortable with a tsop install, and if the Xenium Ice really has recovery options, then I'd feel better knowing that. I'm still a modding n00b, so "recovery" is a godly word to me

Does soldering have any advantages over solderless or vice versa?

Can someone do me a favor?

PM me on which folder Xecuter 4981 is in? I know it's discouraged to talk about on these forums, and I hope I don't get dissed/flamed for askin, but I can't tell which Xecutor is which...

(gosh, can I make it any more obvious how n00bish I am?) Thanks for the kind soul who pities me

btw, what is this "punching bag/dummy file/fluff" thing and what is it for?

Thanks again for your patience and understanding!

The xecutor bios is under xbox - bios - xecutor, if you have a 1.6 tho you need to use evoxm8_1.6.

Do not use the solderless adapter, its garbage. Trust me, solder the fucker in, it will save you many headaches.

Well, I got the Xenium ICE, and now I just need to solder it in, and figure out how to flash the BIOS

Mintz, you have my AIM addy, talk to me if you still need help

Will do!

My Xbox is open, the guts are spilled out, and I'm about to install the modchip.
