Guys I've really mucked this up

[ballboy]

I read lots of guides, it looked so easy.
from start

i fitted xecuter 2.6 and a xapt3r (solderless) i have only 1 cable from the xecuter 2.6 to the switch pcb u get with the xecuter 2.6 (no other cables fitted) is that right?
when i switch on the x-box there is a blue and a red led alight on the xapt3r (thats right i think)

when i switch on the xbox only bank 2 now has the flash3.03 bios, the flash bios on bank 1 has disappeared (i've mucked that up)

last night when i made a evox m8 bios (with dummy file on cd), it all appeared to load ok, the yellow and green bars went across the screen, the xbox turned off. i turned it on and nothing had changed.

since the i made a bios cd with x2_4983, used a slayer disc

and now i'm here
no bios/flashbios on bank 1
flashbios 3.o3 on bank 2

can someone help, for a job that should have take me a few hours its 3 nights,a big headache and a nagging mrs

here's the xapt3r install tutorial

red led means the D0 has good connection

the other wires you could solder are for the lan/hdd leds on the swtich (red and green wires), the grey one is the D0 wire which in your case of the solderless adapter will not be using

if you flashed evox m8 then you should have made it a 512k size bios with x2bm (found in downloads section) and it would have flashed to bank 1 even though you were on bank 2
whatever bios you flash, the first 512k will go to bank 1 and second 512k will go to bank 2

get the latest X2 5035 bios from xbins and flash that to your box
make sure you flash the appropriate version
vOld- 1.0-1.5 boxes
v16plus - 1.6/1.6b boxes
