I have an xbox 1.6b. I flashed my only flasbios 3.03 with a 3.01 version (off on off off off) by mistake. The strange thing is I can get the flashbios 3.01 to boot up on my 1.6b If I press the power and eject buttons about 50 times It will eventually come up. I can get It to come up on two different banks. It wont read the x3 3294 v16plus file I should of used from within flashbios 3.01. Is there any way I can upgrade one of the 3.01 bios to 3.03?

p.s. I know all about the hotswop method, Im going out to sea In 2 weeks(navy submarine).

Thanks alot.

I have downloaded flashbios_v303 off xbins(256k). should I flash that to the off on off off off bank? Do I need to rename that to BIOS.bin and add the dummy file?

thanks man...

I made a disc with the file flashbios_v303.bin file that I renamed to BIOS.bin and added the dummy file. I tried flashing this from flashbios 3.01. I get....

Flash BIOS 3.01

Found Bios Update:/BIOS.bin (256k)
Unknown Flash! Halting.

the flash protect led on my x3ce chip is lit green and the no.5 flash protect dip switch is OFF.
