any recomendations on what i should use for my 4 bios banks on this chip? I have xbox bios manager hooked up and am ready to load some bios files? Can i use a 512 BIOS to cover banks 1 and 2, and put flashbios on 3 and 4? My chip has an external switch that has a 2 position swicth for banks.


What does someone recomend its a 1.4 box I think and Its a 2.6 xecuter chip

You can put a 512k bios (preferably x2_5035_vOld_512k.bin) on bank 1 and it' will automatically fill-up banks 1 & 2 (bank 1 on your chip) and put any flashbios version on bank 3 and it will occupy bank 4 as well (3.01 or 3.03...it doesn't matter coz both will work on your xbox version if you're really sure that you have a v1.4)

the X2 5035 is the latest and greatest for X2 chips, definetly can't wrong with it
you can use the ini file to configure/customize the settings of the bios to your liking
 
I Have installed my 2.6 xecuter, I can flash it Via Http , So which Bios do I use to flash on my chip? I tried once before, but when i have it on bank one, as the xbox symbol appears it says xecuter2 underneath it and then nothing, it just stays at the symbol screen, is this supposed to happen and if so what do i do next? Or if I screwed it up which Bios am I supposed to use?

The bios I used were the x2.4983.bios but in this file there were a number of folders one called bios and one called x2config_app what do I use the config_app one for, also inside the bios folder there were two different bios called x2_4983.06_256k and then x2_4983.67_256k they are both bin files so I didn't know what to do with the two so I flashed the 2983.06 file and that is where I am now, stuck in the xbox logo with the xecuter2 underneath it
please advise on what I should do or use now. Also how do I clear a bank If I messed up or want to change bios?


thank you for the help

Shouldn't I be able to load backup games after installing the bios 5035? I can't get a dashboard on there, does this mean i can't play backups?
