I just installed my x3 on a 1.6 xbox and I don't know how to flash it. I would burn a cd, but for some reason, my cd burner doesn't want to burn anything right now. I'll adress that problem later. I would like to ftp to my xbox, but whenever I goto "Enable Network Flashing" it tells me DHCP failed, it shouldn't. I've got my computer and my xbox sharing an internet connection through a 10/100 switch. I figure it's just networking problems. Tell me what I need to get to my xbox, from my computer, and what settings I need in my computer to do so. I need help like woah. I'm a total n00b to this, so talk to me like I'm 3. Thanx

No it doesn't help me at all, I need to know how to get my xbox to converse with my computer, the hardware I need. All that webpage says is "Hook your xbox to your DHCP enabled network" which I don't have. I have a computer hooked directly to my cable modem.

Modded 360 Issue in need of advice...

I have an older 360 that I modded about 6 months back, and has worked flawlessly up until recently.

To give a brief history of this machine, it originally had an error with it which caused for the sound but no video issue (no RROD). With reading this and that and a few other things, the best I could determine was to attempt the RROD fix, as some people had stated this helped their issue with Sound/No Video.

Well, after the fix (and already having another 360 console) I decided to flash the DVD with iXtreme. Having a Sammy25 if my memory serves me correct, and flashing with iXtreme 1.6, I was then in possession of a handy modded 360, next came getting burned backups to work.

Obtained Kreon drive for my PC, and began backing up. SUCCESS! (Little did I know that I had a HUGE case of noobitus, and was unaware of abgx360.. *slap on wrist*) But, no matter, my only desire was to play system linked, or games that were simply single player. I did not feel the need to risk getting on LIVE when I had a 360 that was perfectly capable of performing that task, RISK FREE.

Ok, so now here comes my current delima/question. I recently made a backup of my game Left 4 Dead 2. Once again having noobitus and being unaware of wave 4 disks that were out and needing the activation.iso file in order to have them play. Finally did my homework, researched a bit and found out the needed information that would lead me to getting the xbox back up and running with the game. YES! I had done it. Damn I was good............... Until about 10 minutes into the game.

For some reason my 360 will completely stop all audio/video output. TV goes to the no source screen and I am left with a :( I have tried multiple games, but still same outcome...

Any thoughts/ideas would be greatly appreciated.. I hopefully put enough information above to allow you to be able to see what the 360 has gone through, and maybe I am just missing something simple.

Thanks

Are you getting any lights? Frankly it does sound like a RROD is close.

Re: Modded 360 Issue in need of advice...

Change the thermal paste and bake it again, if you have only baked it the once it will be fine to do it again.

If you bake any 360 it normaly comes back to life even with out the fix
