Service Required Screen Using Duo X3
« on: December 25, 2012, 06:58:00 AM »

i would reflash the bios.
a duo x3 is a clone. and i think they use 256k bios's.
(i would use m8+ bios "1.0-1.5 or 1.6 depending on your mother board.)
Remember if you are currently using a x2 bios. ftp your games and stuff to your pc before you change the bios to m8 or you may not be able to see the data on the drives.

hexen "heimdalls xbox engineering disk" can flash it for you.
when its reflashed tell it to do a fresh install c drive after tsop/chip flash

and then make sure the hard disk is locked..

this should..
Dissable reset on eject "so you can eject without restarting"
put a working ms dash on c so the xbox can boot when the chip is off.
And obviously lock the hard disk so the xbvox can boot when the chip is off..

if you do end up not able to see your files, and the free space on the hard disk is wrong.  let me know and il tell you how to format the partitions without using xbpartitioner. then format them with xb partitioner.
and you can then ftp your files back.
