Update the bios?

[ThatPerson]

My xbox is running the build 3029 of the bios and I was thinking of updating it

When I go to 192.168.0.1 (my xbox) in internet explorer I get this page: http://xs205.xs.to/xs205/06332/WEBFLASHX3.PNG

Will that page update the bios?

Yes, that most certainly will.

Is there anything else I need to do? So I just start up my xbox and leave it on the bios then goto the webflash page and flash the xbox?

Will it keep all the current settings like boot up to my evox dash when I select reboot to dash?

If your Dashboard priority is set to that still.

boot to flashbios(backup flashbios power eject at same time if you dont have a working backup change your switch to flashbios boot xbox then change your switch to the old bios switch setting then flash over old bios)
x3 3294 for v1.0 to v1.5 xboxs
x3 3294 v16 plus for v1.6 v1.6b xboxs

Why do I need to open flashbios if it has webflash when im in the bios? cant I just update it there?

 

[DJBOOBY]

if anything go wrong you can allway do it again but if you flash go wrong you cant flash it again
get flashbio up then do the http flash but remember to change your switch so you dont flash over your working flashbios (if backup dont work)

nah I will just leae it then, too complicated for me
Only reason I wanted to update was because my ftp keeps crashing

 

[DJBOOBY]

have you got a working backup bank (press power eject at sametime to get flashbios ) if so it easy to flash if your got old x3 bios with switch set to on on off off off then flash new bios to off on off off off then if anything go wrong then you can use old one
if you got flashbios on switch setting off on off off off then do as above

 

[ThatPerson]

I think I kinda figured out the switch stuff but I dont want to do that incase I mess it up (knowing me I will). Cant I just use webflash?

 

[DJBOOBY]

yes
dose your backup work
power eject at same time to get flashbios

you could always use the ftp flash option to flash the bios as well. there is an admin directory that you can go into. It will not screw your current bios up unless you upload the wrong version. he'll you could flash it to bank 5678 if you are really paranoid.
on on off off 1234
off on off off 5678

When you update and have X3 Config Live running, there is no need for switch settings as you can choose the banks through the FTP program or the web interface.
