Need a replacement pin header.

Hello There,

I goofed up my X3 1.6 install and need a new pin header. Doe's anyone know where I can get one? I tried Bald Bouncer but he couldn't help.

Thanks!

Try a decent electronics supply place - Maplins perhaps?

while ur there u should pick up an ata166 cable if u havent already, the cable does some serious improvement on ur speed.

not really. the ata bus (or whatever you call it) on the xbox is only ata33 so a better IDE cable won't really change much in speeds compared to a stock IDE cable.

my suitemate and i timed the level load times in halo btwn a stock cable and an 80wire cable.

first test was 17 seconds stock and 8 with the 8 with the 80wire
ill conduct a test again if u like.

another factor was that he was using a 7200 rpm drive durring this test

I found a local electronics supply house that has then for $0.49 a piece. i bought a handfull of them just in case of a screw up. Look for a local store. would probably be your best bet.

OK... I mis-read it.

I thought... well, it doesn't matter what I thought, it was wrong.
