ad the tuts and I have my slayers disk in and have my main screen up. I have a X2.6CE and it came with a bios on it. I wanted to flash to the newest bios, because this bios doesn't have double boot option.

Well I have a router:
192.168.0.?

Xbox is showing:
192.168.0.???

Now from my PC which has the bios on it, I tried accessing the xbox, buy going to my browser and typing 192.168.0.??? (xbox IP)

I get access denied!

From the documentation I am not trully understanding what I missed. I started reading the posts of others and still followed them and nothing. I can see the xbox through FTP, but not http. Anyone had this problem and fixed it?

What is providing you the IP on the Xbox? FlashBIOS or the Slayer's disc? Only FlashBIOS has the HTTP flash option, if you are already booting from a mod BIOS (necessary to load Slayers) then you aren't going to have HTTP booting available. If you have FlashBIOS on bank 2 (frequently recommended) you may be able to boot off of there and then HTTP flash. So long as you don't flash a file larger than 512KB your 2nd bank won't be touched. Alternately, since you are already loading Slayers (actually the EvoX dashboard underneath) there should be a flash option somewhere in there. But what I would actually recommend since you can already boot mod software is that you use FlashX to update your BIOS. This is a utility designed by Team Xecuter specifically for flashing X2 chips. Best control you will have over a flash short of using an external programmer.

Thanks bro will try flashX. I tried using the Slayers CD to to flash. It has the option to flash but only from the Bios' they have on the disk. I figured I would have to either create another slayers with the bios I wanted on it or, I would have to get a programmer, but I'll try the recommeneded option first
