I am sure I overlooked this question but... I successfully flashed my bios via network. It shut down on its own and everything. But.. When I turn it back on it goes right back to the flash bios screen. What am i doing wrong?

Thanks,

every time i turn on my xbox (1.5) it comes up to the flash bios 3.01. And everytime it flashes the bios(The bar turns green and the xbox shuts down) when i turn it back on it comes up to the same flash bios screen. Instead of the xbox screen. I would be happy if i was able to just get past the flash bios screen and be able to make sure it will still play my games, but i can not get it past the flash bios screen. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Derek

I dont know if this makes a difference but when i turn on the xbox the light flashes red for slip second then blue/normal. I have checked and recheck solder points everything looks fine. After the flash is completed it keeps going back to the flash screen as if it was not flashed at all.

THanks,
Derek

right what i want to know is what bios you are trying to flash to the chip? on the bank settings panel make sure its set to: 1.on 2.on 3.off 4.off 5.(flash protect)off. also make sure that the flashprotect is disabled on the chip itself.

The first post has a Q+A list. Have you read it? If so, which bit don't you understand?

I suggest you learn to read. Put your Xbox away for now as learning to read is much more important that modding your Xbox.

Ok i am a moron, did realize you had to flash it with a 3rd party flash. What option do i use to x-fer games to hard drive? DO i have to that through ftp or is there an option in the x3 config menu or both?

Transferring games is possible from either X3CL/Evox/Avalaunch (FTP) or by an Application like DVD2XBox.

information on all of this can be found on these forums and over at Xbox-Scene.com

You are trying to load the wrong bios. You need to find an Xecuter bios for your chip.
You may have to do little digging on the web to find one, but they are out there. If you keep Flashing your bios with FlashBios 303 you are going to continue to get the same results. Find an Executer bios and flash one of the 1MB banks with it.

As always, I stick with what's easy, so go and grab Slayers v2.6 Final from the usual place.
Slayers formats and sets up new HDs etc, and installs several popular dashes like Evox, XBMP, XBMC, and Avalaunch. It also installs apps like DVD2XBox.

cheers

Goto xbins and get bios 3029, use winRAR extract it ,burn it to disc and you will see the difference.
