Jackschitt Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 I was thinking about getting an XboX and modding it but i really have no clue which chips to get for which games and what not. Anyone have any clue what chips to get and where? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cominus Posted May 31, 2004 Share Posted May 31, 2004 i suggest getting the aldin chip and check out xbox-scene.com for all the info on xbox modding/hacking/back-up, you name it, they got info on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Armageddon Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 OK if you want to waste a good thrty bucks on a chip and flash it go right ahead but seriously. People overlook the simple feature of flashing the onboard TSOP. its free and has the same benefits of a modchip except the glowing led on the front. plus if you have an original xbox 1.0/1.1 you have a 1 meg bios. You can add a simple 2.50 switch from radioshack and have a xbox that is xbox live compatable. i've done about 30 of these type of xboxes and no problems.. these points are easy to solder and may i stress.

Prican25 Posted June 1, 2004 Share Posted June 1, 2004 wel if he's buying one chances are he'll get a 1.4/1.5 which can't use that switch method so it really depends on whether you really care for xbox live. yes he can get a reburbished xbox or used but i highly suggest you get a new one since with reburbs they only replace parts that are needed and used is used (last thing you want is to get stuck with a crappy thomson that dies a week or 2 later) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
