Should I Update Os?
« on: December 16, 2004, 07:19:00 PM »
Okay I have a 2.0.1 OS and it's working fine.

I got my chip from an official reseller (right off the teamxodus website) so I know it isn't a clone.

I was just wondering if I should wait to update to 2.0.2 to see if there are any major bugs?

Should I do it now or wait?

well 2.02 is an update which is intended to fix some problems, so the issues from the previous OS's including 2.01 2.02 should resolve some issues from them.

You want NEW? OK.

We just felt that since our primary commitment is to the undeniable reliability of our product, that we should further that by making improvements to that reliability our day-1, opening event.

But, it's day 2... and now that we've gotten that out of the way....

Wow, and 10 days to go.... oh my.....

I decided to update for the heck of it. It was much easier than I thought it would be.

i just grabbed a CDRW and made a data cd with the recovery.bin and 2 mp3's on it (to try to force the DVD drive to read it just in case)

it worked perfectly!!

My computer is on a different level than my Xbox: I would've had to grab my laptop.

I've also read (from Artifex moderator of this forum) that it is suggested that you update via CD method.

The Xenium chip has been a great performer for me, I have installed about 100 or so in the last two months.  I went through a period though that ever chip I installed wouldn't boot up correctly right after install, during the first initial boot.  

The LED would turn an amber color and I'd get no audio/video and my eject light would flash green only.  All I had to do was press and hold the eject button for a few seconds to throw it in recovery mode and after game tray ejected I just closed it, rebooted the xbox and I got the OS Menu Screen...  

Of course I haven't had that problem in about two weeks, so I am glad to see the 2.0.1. took care of that.

later all
