John 566 emailed me and said the xios worked for him...so if you *ucked up yer xbox with a bad flash, a xios chip will allow you to boot it and fix the bad flash...so I'll be keeping 1 on hand.

Well if you leave them there, your flash chip is writeable by any program/game. Who knows, maybe some games will start to trash your box is they don't detect the proper bios?

I'll put a switch on mine so I don't have to dismantle the thing everytime I want to flash it.

I have done the st bios sucessfully and the hyundai also..I just forgot to switch bios off and I messed up the flash. I have heard that xtenders can fix it but I cannot find an xtender so I wanna know if those xios chips that have xtender programming will work to allow me to fix my bad flash?

Welcome to the club. I also had done a few before. I didn't realize that I would take out the onboard bios with the mistake. I'm going to try and get it in tonight but I wont be able to work on it until about 1am so I may not get it finished.

I was checking out the install for the homebrews and xtender and it appears they use the same installation points. maybe we have luck.

from what i have heard, any Xtender based mod chip will work cause it completely replaces the onboard BIOS. The enigmah works with it. Thats why when a onboard bios flash fails, the enigmah modded xbox is fukt

** only what i heard, not personal experience **
