I http flashed my bios with a X3 bios
& everything was good I accessed it via ftp & transferred my avalaunch files to the C: directory just like the how to said. then I restarted the box & it freezes at the screen where it says xbox XECUTOR ROCKIN MY BOX

I made a mistake while flashing my chip, the only way I could get the xbox to boot the cromwell bios was to set the dips off on off off off but I didn't change it before I flashed the new bios (which worked fine b4 avalaunch install) So I have no backup bios

How do I reflash the bios.

I flashed over my backup bios
I hold the white button all day long in all dip[ switch modes & it wont boot me into the X3 config. it just gets to the XBOX LOGO SCREEN & shows the XECUTER logo & then freezes. I burned BOXplorer off a >ISO that I found. & I can get it to boot & I deleted Avalaunch from the drive but I still can't get the x3 config to come up & I have tried burning several differnt ways a DVDR to load the BIOS but it won't work. I cannot get anything to boot except the Boxplorer. And evidently I don't know how to burn a xbox bootable DVD
Can anyone help

So one could boot off of a slayer/evox install disc and install the X3 bios to the X3 modchip?

i don't know if it will work with a 2.6 but a hot swap is done when you load the flash bios screen with one chip then pull it off put the bad chip on and then flash it "HOT SWAP"

sweet I know someone with a X3 CE that may be able to do this for me
thanks


But if I put the boxplorer in first I can load the evox dash using that & do everything I need to
just would be alot more convenient if I could get the bios to load it for me.

Thank you very much that is what I thought you meant
unfortunate thing is this guy that has a x3 CE would not help me do it.
So I am kinda screwed
I have been able to boot off my Slayer Evox CD & I installed all the apps with that & then went in the file manager & deleted evox & I use the avalaunch board to do everything from. The only problem is I always have to boot off the Boxplorrer CD then run avalaunch
The bios will not autoload avalaunch. I tried using oZxflash to flash my chip with the X3 3294 bios it didn't work. said the flash was complete & everything but didn't work.
