So i have done my fair share of research on JTAG and RGH mods for both Xbox fat and Xbox slim and to me RGH just seems like a newer version of JTAG. I have an Xbox fat with a Falcon motherboard, and also have an Xbox fat with a Jasper motherboard. I plan on buying the XECUTER coolrunner with LPT cable included. Im just wondering if i should stick to JTAG or go with the XECUTER coolrunner RGH mod.

Thanks Ronnie

Yeah if any of your consoles are past 7371 you have to use RGH. The point of RGH was to do everything a jtag could on any dashboard.

Yeah i knew you could go from JTAG to RGH but not vise versa, with RGH can I put the .ISO of the games I already own on an external HDD?

Chip wise get the cool runner.

Why are you doing both? You know jtag or rgh both means no Live yeah? Wouldn't you be better keeping one for live and one for rgh/jtag?

they are basically the same thing minus the dual nand option for the rhg they just use different methods to run unsigned code

Exactly thats why i plan on doing both, because with the RGH i can dual boot, and anyway isnt there a way to play the games on live off of the hard drive using a program?

pretty much the jtag has been abandoned since the onset of RGH but i still like mine boots everytime without having to wait for it like a slim and the rgh is more expensive to get running. as a sidenote you cant swap hdd between the jtag and rgh and have all the programs work correctly such as fsd as the newest versions only seem to work correctly on a rgh so i would suggest to go with the rgh on both if you are going to have fsd just so everything works correctly.
