Not usre if this is the correct forum for this post so i apologise up front if it's wrong.

I have a V1.0 Xbox that frags due to me screwing up the bios with a previous modchip.

I have since replaced the xbox and put an X3 in the new box and i am wondering if I install an X3 in the old box with the failed Bios wether i have a chance of bypassing or replacing the bios with the help of the X3?

Any input greatly appreciated.

TIA

thoertically, yes as you'd be booting off the x3 bios, not the onboard bios.
but dont hold me to that

yes youll be able to "bypass". but your not really bypassing anything really since the BIOS is stored on the Modchip and not on the Xbox.

once you install the X3 itll be fresh and new

tbh, i dont think there going to make the firmware, maybe just maybe for the sammy, not hitachi though, sammys are slightly more popular i think but you have to remember xboxs arent made with those 2 drives no more, so eventualy they will get more and more un common, you xan just spoof to benq LT anyway.

But with the LT firmware and not being able to spoof with it, it kinda defeats the purpose :)

I hope they come out with a SAmmy version because there are still alot of 360's with a Sammy drive in them :p

Re: is LT ever going to be released for Hitachi or Samsung?

Ive asked the same question and never got a straight answer from anyone associated with the process you are better off switching drives i have three hitachis who are waiting and dont mind waiting, however i wish like you someone would give a deffinitive answer so unknowing people like us can stop asking the same question every few months. At least with a yes or no we could move on with a solution to our drives, not everyone got banned and not eveyone has a liteon. The original message was dont ask about LT, then when LT hit the net it was dont ask about future firms so who knows. But some sort of post would be nice i think its been like 9 months since 1.51 ugh frustrating thats all iknow.

I wouldn't hold your breath to be honest! No-one knows for sure when any firmware will be released cept for c4 himself.
My opinion? It's not likely for hitachi, sammy? You might be lucky.....

Re: is LT ever going to be released for Hitachi or Samsung?

Your Joking right? How can they release LT for 2 Drives and not the Final 2... This is crazy... Ok its up to them because they creating the Software but people like me Donate to then so they can create the firmware I need... I have 3 Xbox's 1 Samsung and 2 Hit, Non banned.. Only 2 are flashed.. And they Not going online until LT is on them, I have no luck so be banned Straight away.. I am not going Buy another Xbox with a drive that supports LT.. And I cannot just buy a Lite-on Drive because LT don't support Spoofs.. Just Wise They would have mentioned This before Releasing LT, So i didn;t wait Months... for a software that looks pretty sure by not its not going be released :(

Do you think ill get banned if I take a Hit-1.51 online? Also if I use a USB and restore my Profile on it to go online, if I get banned Will by profile be deleted on my Main Xbox? Also if I put my Hard drive into a banned Xbox and play games to get achievements Will M$ know they achievements are from a banned Xbox and Ban my main Xbox? thanks

Benq lt 1.1 is spoofable. Liteon lt isnt. Pay 20 bucks and get a benq and spoof it. No big deal.

If you have a drive that's already been flashed and backups have been played on them, then chances are you have already been flagged by the console.
LT is only recommended for installation on new, virgin consoles, maybe that's why you havent seen a release for hitachi and sammy yet? Not many new consoles I have seen with those drives.

Re: is LT ever going to be released for Hitachi or Samsung?

i agree, they need to make a sammy LT but if not just buying a new drive is not that hard and just spoof it to the MB, just a lil more time and effort lol
