Title: Cant Get My Eb2000 Crap Chip To....
Post by: Vric on December 28, 2003, 11:34:00 AM
would be nice to have more info on your version and dvd drive

also, taking a look a bit on this forum could help you a lot.. there is at least 10 poste in the first 2 page about that kind of problem  rolleyes.gif

btw you probably have a crapy Thomson drive, and will need to use a DVD-R/RW media or a programer to get it running.

yup. Thomson drive like DVD-R media, that might work perfectly, just make your dummy file bigger (about 1.5Gb or more) and burn at 1x to be sure

wow thank you sooo much guys! ok so can i use a dvd-rw?
and what prog would i use to burn the dvd? (i just got the dvdr today)
Brad

yes you can use DVD-RW if your drive like this..

use nero, nero will detect that you have a DVD media in your drive and will give you 4.37gb of space (same as tutorial, but with bigger dummy files)

"Stupid EB2k" chip are the exact same as Chameleon you were buying few month ago.. EB2k was making chip for xodus, they only changed the led and the default cromwell bios..

yea, linuxbio.bin is correct... it will find linuxboot.cfg in there as long u use dvd-r's or rw's... cuz yes, thomson = garbage... (worth burning.. literally... with flames... SERIOUS flames)

buddy i donno what to say you just helped me soooo much i cant repay ya im gonna try it out right now...hey maybe you cant answer this question but how can i take my xbox game and rip it on to my cpu hd then burn it later on is there a prog that does it?
ThanX again

just use Slayer 2.5Final Installation CD, it will install your dashboard and all software needed to transfer game from your dvd drive to the xbox and then use ftp to copy them to your computer..

but try to flash bios first, if everything is going well, then you will pass to the next step (slayer)

not bad for a guy that don'T even have a modchip yet euh ?   biggrin.gif  rolleyes.gif

IF the other chip is Chameleon 1.3 (blue led), it come with Cromwell 1.8 in it. if your Xbox is V1.4 or 1.5, it won't work at all.. you will need a programer to flash it. Only Cromwell 2.27 support new xbox

yea I have see that

but like forum, you didn't really see ppl that have a sucess mod on forum, only those that have problem.

and for gocybershop, take a look there:
http://forums.xbox-s...ST&f=37&t=56973

that scare me more  biggrin.gif

anyway, I ordered last friday. I think by February 7th I should have it..

and, yes, if everything go well, you should be up and running in 20 minutes.. but copying game that you rent is illegal buddy  biggrin.gif

ummm YAAAAY it flashed!!!! now what? do i turn the xbox back on?

way few seconds then restart it
if you don't have any frags (flash red and green):

put slayer cd in then close the xbox
after few seconds, restat the xbox (with slayer cd in it)
It should start with slayer installation
fallow the onscreen instruction

but i had to put that 1.2 gig before the file whats gonna happen now?

no need to put dummy files

just burn the iso with burn image in nero and you are done (finalize the cd)

btw since you are refreshing this thread every minutes  biggrin.gif  I will ask a question

did you buy your modchip from eb2k ? if so, how long it took to get it ?

thanks
