Hi ive got an old xbox v1.0/1.1 . This has an x2 bios flashed to TSOP.
Ive now bought an XBIT modchip and want to install orginal bios in one of the banks (1024) but there are 4 original 1024 bioses. How can i determin the correct one? i want to go LIVE

It's hard to say in all honesty...

flashing an original bios onto the xbit wont let u go on live anyway, u need to flash the tsop properly with the original MS bios and make sure the HD has all the MSdash files as retail

incorrect, a retail bios, regardless of how or where it was loaded, is safe to use on Live

Even on bank1 on a 2.3blite v1.6 xbox with unlocked hard drive?

the unlocked HD will give you error 5, and error screens dont usually connect to xbox Live tongue.gif

So no live on 1.6+X2lite until someone figures out how to lock the drive

Damn guess I'm going to have to buy ICE

If you can't lock your hdd now, ice won't do anything for it either--one way or another, the hdd needs to be locked for use with the original bios (In this case, XBL). If you happen to have a hdd that CAN'T be locked, you're shit out of luck.
