How to check if you have a v1.6B

1. Manufacture Date after 2004-9-01 (9th Sept)
2. System RAM is Hynix (v1.6 seems to be Samsung)
3. Xbox Freezes during flubber sequence.
4. Xbox boots fine but freezes during games.

Fixes:

FlashBIOS v3.03 Works fine
X3 1959 v16plus Bios & Evox M8 v16plus works just fine

A 1.6b xbox (hynix ram), dated September 1st, 2004

as far as i know, a v1.6b xbox is if you have Hynix Ram. my xbox has a mfg date of 9-18-04 and i got samsung ram...so therefore its a v1.6.

1.6b has hynix because the problem was the ram tables, nothing else

I just modded a friend's X-Box, and I'm pretty sure the manufacture date was 2004-7-14. It was a holiday pack, bundled with Amped and Top Spin. It came out of a sealed box, and I remember making note of the date before opening the box.

I opened up the box, didn't bother looking at first, then, lo and behold... hynix.

I'll double check the mfg date the next time I see him, but I'm almost positive it was 7-14

It was an ironic statement, and I must have read before I posted to do it. Notice the ':p' ?

Because the spec on my machine was relavant to this topic.
You've been here 6 or 7 weeks and that makes you a veteran yeah? For the record, your post contributed nothing. Twat.

Cut it out, both of you. Your ranking is noted by the number of posts, so the both of you two acting like 5 year old bì†çhë§. we all know exactly how you both gain your post rankings and it's pathetic and a mockery of the forum system. This is one of those events i personally suggest the admins install a ranking system similar to myspace's "Kudo" system, except your account gets canceled and your posts removed if you get negative points, anyhow...

One of my clients brought me a 2004-10-23 xbox, i assumed it was a 1.6b, but everything else seemed to register as a 1.6 durring modchip install, flashing, and x3 labeling. just thought i'd state one of the anomalies.

dstar, you say something in reply to this it's as good as:

yea so when i was sucking a d**k the otherday, i happened to figure out what the A in my AIDS meant
anyway, who are you? who said anything about posts meaning anything? ranks below my name dont mean sh*t to me, cause if it did, i would probably have at least 7 or 8 posts a day, why dont you do the math you dipshit

the point is, its a 1.6b period if you have hynix ram, it runs off a different timing sequence than the other samsung ram, its no an anomoly, its your a dipshit, the new bios works with the timing sequence of the ram, the old ones dont, your just too f**king stupid to understand you had a new bios

What the [email protected]#$? Becomming the mediated?

And I think YOU should be doing the math dumb ass.
Nov 7 - Dec 30 is 53 days. Now I'm not even in high school, but I know that 53 day and 7 posts a day is NOT 105 dumbass. Its more like
1.9811320754716981132075471698113 posts per day.

I did the math, you do the shutting up.
