Spliting Tsop Two Ways
« on: May 25, 2006, 03:20:00 PM »
Hi I don't really understand how to install the switch I looked at lord vaders sig but it is just a pic not a tut. If someone could direct me to a tutorial I would love it. Thanks.

I also need to know if my idea will even work. Can I have

Bank 1 - X2 5035
Bank 2 - Cromwell

So that one side I can have a modded xbox and the other side will run linux?

the pic is the bottom of the motherbaord

1:put a bag of microwave popcorn in the microwave
2:solder a wire from the red point on the board to the red leg of the SPDT switch
3:solder a wire from the purple point on the board to the purple leg of the SPDT switch
4:solder a wire from the blue point on the board to the blue leg of the SPDT switch
5:mount the switch somewhere on your case
6:flash your x2 bios (use evox to flash)
7:flip the switch
8:flash your cromwell bios
9:get your popcorn and eat it

okay i followed the tut, xbox boots fine but then when picking what bios to flash it always gives me flash not writable.  no matter which way i flip the switch! So im wondering if thats all you need to solder, or if theirs another point like on the top of the board thanks.
