I am trying to install evox, i have x3 chip w/ the latest x3 bios. I cant get my thompson drive to recognize cd-r's and rw's. I need to install EVOX with a dvd, but cant figure out how.

get your evox folder, use a program like craxtion or quix to create an xiso of it, then burn that bitch to some kind of blank media (blank dvd or something, although thats a serious waste of space, you may want to put other programs on that to), make sure you finalise the disc. Now on the xbox, stick it in the drive, then just copy the folder over the xbox, or if your making it your main dash, then put the files inside the evox folder into the root of c and point your x3 chip at it.

edit* or get slayers disc, its on that provided you can get it to boot

yeh most install discs require cdr/cdrw though, so just open up the iso and add a dummy file til its suitable size for dvd

I created an iso with evox and a dummy file that totaled about one gig, but I cant get evox to boot from it. WTF?

are u sure ur x3 is configured to boot from the disk on startup? also what did u use to burn the xiso? nero is the best.

I used nero. How do i configure x3 to boot from the disk? I think that is where my problem lies. Thx.

ndsbass · « **Reply #8 on:** July 15, 2005, 11:15:00 AM »

it should be in the config live options or somewhere. just set it to boot from disk at startup

TeX_BoX · « **Reply #9 on:** July 15, 2005, 11:17:00 AM »

The only thing i see that might be applicable is to disable "autostart x3 Config Live"

hold on i might be wrong lemme check my xbox. i have an x3

ndsbass · « **Reply #11 on:** July 15, 2005, 11:20:00 AM »

i THINK it might be disabled cdrom boot but im not totally sure. try that. its the last option in the x3 config live setup menu thing.(the same one the autostart option is in, just go down)

that may bet the problem but idk

Edit: wait a minute, ur trying to get evox on ur hdd right? cause the x3 bios has built in ftp, so if you can ftp with ur computer, do it that way.

i disabled "autostart x3 config live" and robooted. it just booted to m$ dash.

TeX_BoX · « **Reply #13 on:** July 15, 2005, 11:24:00 AM »

I dont see that, i found "dvd boot xbe name = default.xbe" should i rename the default.xbe?

ndsbass · « **Reply #14 on:** July 15, 2005, 11:26:00 AM »

only if its different in the xiso. if the .xbe in the xiso is named default.xbe, then leave it. like i said, try ftping.
