Hey, all! First time posting here, hoping I'm doing this right. I have a 1.6 XBOX I just finished up modding. When I was done, the console would flash an orange ring and power off. The console runs cool when this happens, no heat from the fan or heatsinks, and this typically happens after about 5 minutes. I can use my dashboard and load games just fine, it's just a matter of time before it crashes from 'overheating'. I've read a lot around here about what could be happening, and I know I don't have any solder traces / splashes on the board, and no capacitor...

Hi there, I have something strange going on. I've modded several Xbox consoles of different models with a chip (all know modern modchips) and never really had any issues. However, now I have a translucent 1.4 that's acting weird. It's a 1.4 motherboard. A mobxo modchip running the latest versions of bioses, a new 1.5TB drive with a StarTech adapter (with 80 wire cable), so quality parts, and everything boots and works perfectly with the stock dash. I formatted the disk with the OS HDD format utility and tested the Modchip in a different XBox as well and it works...

Hello everyone, I'm hoping you can help me troubleshoot a problem I'm encountering. For a long time, I've had five original OGX-360 adapters, and they work perfectly when I use them wirelessly with my Xbox Series X controller connected via an 8BitDo Adapter. Recently, I acquired some newer adapters: twelve OGX-Mini units from eBay, and four OGX-Mini units directly from ModzvilleUSA. The issue is, with all of these newer OGX-Mini adapters, my Xbox Series X controller does not work wirelessly when connected via the 8BitDo USB Adapter. They only function when a controller is...

I want Dvd2xbox to work with my dashboard network (DHCP) setting. In the "user manual" it says you can select between "dash" "dhcp" or "static" from the dvd2xbox.xml file. The only thing that shows up for network is "IP:0.0.0.0" And if you try Settings > Network it freezes. Inside the xml it says you should leave the network settings as is if you wish dvd2xbox to make use of your dashboard network settings. Someone knows how to make this work with the dashboard settings ?

Hey everyone, I’ve been diving into some classic OG Xbox games, and I came across FreeCell Solitaire. I know it’s a simple game, but I’m curious, why is it still such a popular choice on the console? Is there something about the OG Xbox version that makes it stand out compared to playing it on a PC or other platforms? Also, does anyone have tips for making the most out of the experience or any memories of playing it on the OG Xbox? Would love to hear your thoughts on this old-school gem!

Download: https://bitbucket.org/prehistoricman/lpcmod_os/src/master/releases/ Changes since 0.64: Can now flash Sharp TSOP Xboxes. No need to use GentooX any more! Safer flashing. Xbox won't reboot if flashing fails, which is most important for TSOPs.

Hey everyone. There’s been a lot of confusion lately, and I want to clear the air as best I can. I’ll try to keep this post short and focused on the core issues. The Blog Post The reason any of this is being discussed right now is because of my recent write-up, Theft in the Xbox Scene. The post focuses specifically on the theft of code from X_boxHD+ and Project S_tellar. Everything else in the article exists to explain how and why that theft happened. That issue, the code theft, remains unresolved. And until it is, it’s something we need to address as a...

I have been made aware that these are contentious bits of software as well. Do not link on this site to where to download them. Do not upload them to your post if that's possible. If you find them here somewhere, report them. You can discuss them. You just can't provide them or links to them here. Why? I was contacted by someone from another site who was given a DMCA notice. It doesn't really make sense that only that site would get a DMCA notice and this one wouldn't. This person even went through our site and provided the relevant links to remove. This WAS NOT the person from the...

Have a 1.0 Xbox and upon boot has no video, I have read enough to check traces and caps. Traces look decent and continuity checks appear to be happening as expected. The caps appear fine and they test within tolerance CPU/GPU, even so I ordered a set to replace to be sure. What I do not understand is the DVD doesn't respond to the eject button, I replaced IDE and power with a known working drive and same result, just flashing eject. Could this be a symptom of the caps needing to be replaced or could this be something else?

i had been using the modified m8 evo(i think that's what it is called) bios because there is just something about seeing that stock boot image that i love. i don't know how to describe it but, it just does something to me. i recently started using cerbios because i wanted to take full advantage of my 3tb drive. so how can i make cerbios have the stock boot flubber and sound?

This is a little project I worked on from October 2024 to January 2025 with help from Skye and HoneySoakedSegull. Original idea by Siktah (he had been nagging me about this for a year). Before anyone comments or asks, yes this just transfers the solder skill requirement from the repair person to the board assembler/merchant. This isn't something everyone needs, and I think it's rather pointless, as I just do my own trace repairs. That being said; not everyone has precision soldering equipment, not everyone has fantastic magnification to do their solder work, and not everyone has the effort...

Hey guys, So I bought a cheap Xbox and it shows "xecuter 2" on startup. I used a burned copy of OGXbox Installer 2021 to change and update the dashboard, which worked great. I happen to have a 2TB SATA lying around and I want to install it. But from what I could gather this would require me to flash my bios. Since xecuter 2 is limited in terms of how big your HDD can be. I have no clue wheter I have an actual chip or a TSOP (Bios Checker shows "TSOP?"). But if I choose 2.5 Flash Cerbios, shouldn't it work either way? Since Cerbios is supposed to work with both chips and...

I just restored the latest V1.6 with the Samsung ram that I've ever seen, 2005-07-06, 1098021-52805 serial #. Has anyone else seen a later date V1.6?

Has anyone seen a xenon mfg 2011. From what I read online it's very unlikely. But I have it. No hdmi 12v 16.5a Never opened and label reads 2011. I finally opened it up. 5 caps are blown so I will replace those . But is this unicorn worth anything?

Hi, im looking for this skin for surreal 64, i'll really apreciate that someone can provide a link:(

I need some help repairing my original Xbox. I got an error 07 and got a new hard drive as I found this mod chip attached and was following some guides. I burnt a disk with Hexen and tried to run it but I still get a 07. I'm unsure what this mod chip actually is and can't find a solution to get my Xbox fixed. Any help whatsoever would be appreciated.

Using Rocky5 Softmodding Endgame Premade Exploit, I can see the USB Drive in the Memory and tried multiple times to format and readd the files, each time the Exploit loads the LEDs flash, then Red Led and Black screen, never loads. I have tried multiple USB drives and all with the same result, one thing to note, sometimes I can see the screen freeze with the Green Orb others the page shows the Default Background but both result in the same thing. Also tried reloading the USB Drives multiple times, different controllers no change. I went as another option to Skeleton Key...

I have a 1.4 motherboard with bulging green Sanyo caps below the CPU. I ordered board, power supply, and clock cap kits from Console5 to do the repair. I replaced all power supply caps, reinstalled and tested, normal boot. The stock Nichicon clock cap hasn't leaked or damaged the board, but I replaced it due to age and it booted normally. I then replaced the CPU caps with the provided 6.3V 3300uF caps and I get 3 boot frag. I removed the new caps and reinstalled the old and it boots as normal. Thinking the 6.3V caps may be defective, I then tried the supplied 10V 3300uF caps but still...

Hello! Tried with multiple pico and RP2040 boards but cant get to boot Cerbios from PrometheOS. PrometheOS starts fine, I can change settings, flash bank for BIOS etc. With Pico If I try to boot bank then console restarts. With RP2040 then it is just black screen. When only Cerbios is flashed on chip then it boots fine. If LPC 3,3V wire is disconnected from modchip then everything works but then it wont reset the chip when turned on. Does anybody has some idea what might cause this? Wiring and soldering is good, I have reflowed all connections and thoroughly checked...

Recently, I got an unmodified Japanese version of the original XBOX, NTSC-J. Meanwhile, I also have several game discs with Traditional Chinese. However, since the language options of the Japanese version of XBOX system do not include Traditional Chinese, when I run these game discs with Traditional Chinese, I can only run the English version. Are there any solutions, such as adding the system language to the MS Dashboard? In addition, I also found that some discs can update the MS Dashboard to version 5960. If I perform offline updates using game discs with Traditional...

Hi everyone, this has me in a permanently befuddled state and I hope you mad scientists can help if I'm missing something obvious. I bought this Aladdin XT clone from eBay with two others. Those worked fine and they're long gone to good homes. This one however, has an odd problem. I've been able to get it to boot on several not-1.6 consoles, but I can't get it to boot on any 1.6. I've tested it with a 1.0, 1.4 and my own personal 1.1. It was loaded with EvoX and booted fine. So I put it in a 1.6 and it would FRAG. Wouldn't even boot my Hexen CD. I put it back in my 1.1 and...

I just recently got a ModXo 3.0 RP2040 with a compatible Raspberry Pi (can't remember which one) and put Cerbios Hybrid 2.4.2 on it and I get no sound when using Cerbios, I loaded the onboard BIOS and surprisingly, I get sound but when I use Cerbios, I don't strangely, I can't figure out how to fix this, Everything inside the console is fine, and all solder joints on the chip are good. I am on a 1.6 original Xbox.
