that means you got banks all mixed and bioses split all over the place

[eminvil_12]

OK.

IM DONE WITH THIS.

I have successfully split my TSOP 4 ways. All is now working as it should be.
This is soooo much better than a chip.

now all i need to do is get each bios to load a different dashboard. anyone know how to do this lol.

thanks lordvader for all your help.

You have to edit the bios to use different boot lists, use evtool to edit evox M8, xbtool to edit xecuter bios's up to bios 4981, 4983 takes a lot of messing around with extracting the kernal and then hexediting i just use 4981 its much better. Then x2 5035 use x2ool.

another question, how do i actually flash that bios onto the xbox? once i get it from the usual place and edit it?

ill do some searching in the mean time.

I haven't tried it yet I'm still using 4981 seing as my xbox is an ongoing project and i haven't had the chance to update yet. The only other thing about the new x2 bios is it is 512k so will take up 2 of your TSOP banks (if you have done a 4-way split or 1 bank if you have done a 2-way split). On the new x2 5035 bios use a program called x2ool by klutsch or the other one by nightshade, they're both available from the main page. This allows you to edit loads of stuff, boot sequence, colours, image where the MS text goes all that stuff. On the older x24981 bios you need xbtool preset maker to change the colours and preview them, but you can't replace xecuter2 under the big X. To flash the bios onto the chip just use evox, boot up with the bios bank you want to flash then flash it. Or if you don't have a bios on that bank boot up on another, flip the switches and then flash.

flashing with evox is the easiest way, but it can be flashed with whatever app you used to flash the TSOP in the first place (evox, raincoat or eurasia)

so i just chuck whichever bios i want into the evox bios folder then burn to cd (i have a sammy ) and do i have to do this everytime?

you dont need to use a cd, you can put it int eh bios folder and laod off teh HD

[lordvader129]

if theres no bios folder just make one in teh same directory as th evox xbe (ex. C:/bios/)

you might have to add the line

Item "Flash Bios",ID_FLASH_BIOS

to evox.ini int he menu section
