Title: Trying To Flash Bios To Second Bank
Post by: Dawg605 on February 08, 2005, 03:08:00 PM
Hi.

I am trying to flash the "Yoshi-final-256k-2005" bios to my second, unflashed bank. When it starts up on that bank, it goes to the blue Cromwell screen. I put the bios into C:\Bios and it tries to load it and says "Unknown flash! Halting". I tryed burning it to a CD also. Please help me fix this. I really want this bios.

if you have an external switch make sure flash protect is disabled

Alright, it flashed, but it doesn't go to EvoX or AvaLaunch or anything. It just goes to the Cromwell blue screen again.

what chip do you have? and what version xbox?

if you have x2.6 chip you will have to change the size of the bios to 512k


flashing the chip doesn't load evox or avalaunch....you must install them after your chip is flashed

Oh, OK. It was 256. I'll try 512 when i get off of Halo 2.

But, I already have a bios on Bank 1 and EvoX and stuff loads just fine. I'm putting this bios on because it is a debug Xbox bios that can do more stuff.

I made it 512 and that didn't work either.

I know this is old, but it still doesn't load EvoX or anything on the Yoshi bios. It just goes to the Cromwell screen.

Oh, and it's weird, because my bootup screen is different, on the bank where the Yoshi bios isn't on. When it turns on, the Xbox screen turns white. So, flashing it did something.
