boot into backup bios...flash the x3 with the evox m8 bios set the switches for a 256k bank eg Bank 8: off off off on
Then put the default.xbe file u have onto a disk with a 100M dummy file.
Boot your xbox with this disk and then it should erase your x3.
re-flash the x3 with an x3 bios using then enjoy

didn't understand you properly the first time i thought your box froze!!
OK so 3294 boots ok to a dashboard...simply press and hold the white button whilst the box is booting to get to Config Live.
Once in CFL you can reflash your backup bios with flashbios 3.03 and reflash your other 1M bank if you so desire with another copy of 3294.

man i tryed holding the whit button nothing happend it always boot to salyer
the cd drive doesn't work so i cant do any thing and the bios version is m7 at slayer menu so m7 bios is the only one that load slayer.is there a way that i can disable salyer by ftp so x3_3294 wont boot direct to it,i cant think of other way to reflash the dam thing man thanks for any reply

 

[sb122606]

ok so you dont have 3294 u must have evox m7 bios installed somewhere as it boots to the dash.
why dont you just ftp the default.xbe (erase file) to your c: drive in a folder called erase and run it through the filemanager in your dash.
I'm not familiar with the slayers dash,is it the evox dash?

 

[valko007]

ok bro i did ftp the default.xbe on c: drive in erase folder when i go to file manager and click on erase default.xbe with (A button) i get please wait loading erase then it reboot the system and load slayer a gain.one more thing i swaped dvd drives from my friend xbox it worked i guess there is some faulty in the other drive.so i got one problem now i can read cd i made new evox 3935 because it hase flash bios at system uttilitys,i added x3_3935 and bios 3.03 in the bios folder and i made a cdrw when i select the flash bios i can see the two i just added there when i click on 3.03 or 3294 bios i get
manufacture id09 device 00
!!unknown flash type!! i dont know if im almost there or it got worse
again thanks for reading and the help...

do you have flash protect turned off..its a red light on the pro switch or switch 5 off.
make sure its off on the x3 chip too.
well now your cd works there is a tool to flash the x3 .

goto xbins xecuter3 folder and download and extract flashx3.rar.
the readme tells u what to do.
basically burn the xbe and the folders to a disk then set swithces to on,on,off,off,off ( ithink there is an error in the readme cause it says on for switch 5 which would turn flash protect on).
boot the disk and it will flash your x3.

never tried it myself but i am assured it works ok

I have problems similar to yours & I think something is wrong with the X3 erase file or something. I can't get it to work for me either. I have been tring to boot to it with a disk for wich I have made several different ones using different programs. I think the X3 3294 bios has a serious password problem or something. If you get it to work please let me know how you did it please!!!

oh man i got it .i can't thank you enough it it wasn't even my xbox and i will feel like an idiot teling my coworker that his xbox is fried.
i used that flashx3 bruned it cdrw with 300mb dummy file loadedthe cd erase the whol thing boot bak i got x3 not detected i loaded the same cd now i used flash bios from c: and i selected x3_3294 and now it boot right it ,then i falshed with x3 3.03 as backup rom just incase i have to holde the eject and power ill get that bios 3.03.
now im back to where i was a week ago now slayer bios menu is unknown
i think its ok or do i have to use m8 bios,and if i want slayer to boot straight
with out sellecting it from x3_3294 do i need the select the path as c:\ evox.xbe
again thanks a lot for the great help man.
