X3 CE Help

[chwebby]

I have installed the X3 CE on my xbox, then I flashed it, it then goes to the rox my box screen and doesn't go any futher than that, did I do something wrong?

ok more info
bios ????
xbox v.???
dash ?????
do you get bios screen when you hold white button down on boot

 

[chwebby]

bios = x3 3294
xbox ver = 1.4
dash = x3 with the chip (i assume as I can not get to the dashboard).
On a side note, it boots to the MS dash and plays games fine with the chip disabled. When enabled it boots to the logo screen and freezes.
Thanx for the reply

have you tried holding the white button on the controler while booting, or putting a dashboard on the hd, need more info

 

[chwebby]

Yes I have tried holding the white button, but still no difference. What other info do you require because I will gladly provide. Thanx

 

[DJBOOBY]

you did not set password in x3 bios

 

[mcweb]

No. Should I consider FTP the hard drive and look to see where the boot file for the dash is or am I fishing?

 

[DJBOOBY]

reflash x3 bios
go in to x3 bios and set dash boot priority

Reflash X3 BIOS

I have reflashed umpteen dozen times with no success. Should I try flashing to a different bank?
You lost me, how do I set the boot priority in the x3 bios?

Its a long shot, try holding A+B+X+Y while boot up to reset bios defaults...

Other things to try is flashing another bios on a different bank, and running x3_erase.
Then reflash your chip with X3 again.

 

[mcweb]

I have already tried,
holding a+b+x+y no succcess
flashing other banks no success
Have not tried X3 erase, where can I find it?

 

[g$$$]

X3 erase is included in bios 1959. Make a boot disc. Have you ever seen the x3config. live screen?

 

[Poida^]

What did you flash the other banks with?

 

[Preddy]

i had the exact same problem with that bios no code would boot not even original games. I down graded the bios to a old 1 and it worked like a charm?
Strange or what!

 

[chwebby]

Thanx Preddy, I did what you did. I flashed it with an older bios (1959) and it now works. But I now run into a differnt problem, I get a password screen and I have no idea what the password is. I have the X3 erase but don't know how to use it, so could someone explain please.

 

[Poida^]

It does look like your password has been set somewhere... Don't know how...
But this is why I said to flash a different bios on a different bank... the symptons are from this same problem...
You can run the x3 erase xbe file from a dashboard or rename it to default.xbe and create a bootup disc...

My Problems have been solved!!!!! For some reason my password was set to XBOB and I was extremly lucky and guessed it and now everything is working perfectly. Thanx to everyone for the help!

I mean my password was XBOX.
