Come on. Is it really that hard to read? I guess so. Take the following information and do some reading. You will be amazed to see everything you need to know has already been posted on here more times than I care to count.

You want X2 5035, NOT flashbios.
Use Avalaunch or some other newer dashboard.
X2 bios manager is not needed because X2 5035 is already 512k.

Thanks when i turn the HD switch of a bios screen loads up and asks for a cdrom it says at the top 'clean bios' which i assumed meant that it had the one that microsoft installed for shipping but when i insert the cdrom with X2 5035 it says that i need to insert linuxboot.cfg whyt does it say this would it help if i turned the flash protect switch off aswell as the HD switch?

thanks Xenon

On another post on this forum someone talks about which bank your bios is flashed to how do u change which bank you use and can you flash a bank that already has a bios on it? which programmes would i need to do this and would i need to FTP with my xbox?

At present i think that my bios is flashed on bank 3 because on the chip switch below the actual switch it says HD and when i turn this switch off and boot my xbox a bios screen comes up. I will post a screen shot of the bios screen so that you could give me further information on what i need to do.#

thanks Xenon

What chip do you have? The X2 series only has two banks. Post a picture of your switch, and chip if you can.

I have managed to do it with your help thanks i loaded a programme called ozxchip and then used the x2 5035 bios which installed directly to bank 1 combining the bin file with a dummy file creating an iso this worked really well

Now all i need is another dashboard which one do you have and which do you think is best?

thanks Xenon

I use Avalaunch. Another good one is UnleashX, but I haven't tried that.

How would i go about installing avalaunch? and is there a way to install it using a cd because at the moment i cannot ftp because i dont have any other dashboard installed other than the microsoft dashboad and i have updated my bios to the X2 5035 will avalaunch run using this bios?

thanks Xenon
