Title: Can Fan Speeds Be Changed Through The Bios
Post by: Frag Daddy on January 12, 2004, 07:38:00 PM
Yes, you can change the fan speed through the bios using xbtool.  NightShade doesnt have an updated version of xbtool for x2 4980, so ur going to have to wait until he updates the program.  Or you can figure out how to hex edit the bios.

How is the next XBTool to support 4980 coming along NghtShd?


Not at all. I haven't done anything with regard to that. I don't know that I will. If they've made a lot of changes in the way things work then I almost certainly won't, as I don't really feel like reverse engineering another kernel. (XBtool is over a year old now and I'm somewhat tired of tweaking it, though I may do another release of some stuff I've been working on.)

You serious?

That's extremely crappy. I was waiting on an update myself.

Are there any resources for hex editing the bios on your own? Perhaps, a better question is are there any specifically known to work with the 4980 release, because I'm not really too keen on having to take the chip out and reflash it via LPT... too much work.

No that I connect to Live! myself, and I never will with this xbox, so I don't care if I get banned. I do wanna go Live! I'll probably just buy a new xbox and not mod it, but it's always nice to have the latest bios on the chip.
