Also on xbins locate the gamesave tsop package for splinter cell, get the one with raincoat .7
Just be sure you know which xbox version you have so you can know which size bios you're going to need...
for 256kb TSOPs use ind-bios 5003
for 1mb TSOPs use X2 5035
Do some reading before you flash, so you get it right the 1st time.
Check your PM

i get Krayzie ndure splinter cell exploit "pal for pal or ntsc for ntsc"
format my memory unit in the xbox then connect the memory unit to my pc and use xplorer360 to view the memory unit.
I then copy the two numberd folders from the Udata folder/zip file/rar file to the rout of the memory unit.
I put the memory unit back in my xbox and start without a game in the drive,
I then go to the memory managment screen and copy over the saves to my xbox. (do not have any other splinter cell saves on the xbox before you start, so be sure you have deleted any you do have from the hard disk)
Remember to copy saves you have to highlight them then press right then you can copy them to the hard disk.
I then boot up the xbox with splinter cell in the drive and go to start game, select the linux installer from the save games then chose check point "or whatever the one on the left is called"
This will then softmod the xbox.
When the xbox is fully softmodded i then Open the xbox and check what verison the mother board is and what the tsop chip is "winbond/Sharp/other" and then i solder the flash points, or use conductive ink.
I then download hexen. "heimdals xbox engineering disk" and burn it to dvd-r at 4x
i boot up with hexen disk in the drive and then chose tsop/chipped tools and flash with which ever bios i want from the list.
Earlier sharp tsops need a wire solderd in place to flash.
1.0/1.1 boards need flash points connected on the top and bottom of the board.
Winbond chips have a diferent flashing method "available on hexen".
1.2-1.5 boards only need 2 points on the top of the board connected
and 1.6 boards dont have a tsop so cant be flashed.
It may take a little bit longer to do it that way but i belive its much more fool proof. And my recomendation for any 1st time tsop flasher because you can just chose 256k bios and it will expand to the correct size if its too small.

I set mine up to boot directly to XBMC.
I like the config file. You can set the boot options up to get rid of the splash screen among other changes.
I'm sure you will like it.

So, what would you all recommend as the best BIOS to use? I tried the evox, but of course as above, I has issues with the memory manager and loading the MS dashboard. The IND BIOS seems to work pretty well. Is there anything better about one over the other?
i like the ind bios, but it does have that stupid bug where you can turn off the console with back and white button, when you should have to use both triggers back and white.
Thats not a problem for most things but if you use coinops then it can be an issue.
So that makes the M8 bios a very strong contender for being the best bios to use.
