R9anSmart Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 Hi all, I have recently got into the modding scene and after some successful Wii mods have decided to turn my hand at the OG Xbox. I had one of these when I was a kid with a chip on it (don't know to much info as was a kid). I recently picked up 2nd hand Crystal OG Xbox's. One of them already has been softmodded and the other is a virgin, never had the lid popped. I am aware that the clock capacitor needs removing off of all motherboards rev. 1.1-.1.5 however, I have read places that you can cause the system to boot loop if not done correctly. My question is, I have a virgin, a softmod and a chip. Which of these is is safe to remove the capacitor from without getting into a bootloop? I am also finding the most up to date software and guides/information hard to find as there is information floating around from over 10years ago so hoping someone can push me in the right direction with dashboards and other ""basic info" on the latests and most supported software that would be a god send. Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMajst3r Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 You can remove clock-cap in every 1.0-1.5 Xbox. It doesn't matter it is modded or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desertman123 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Funny enough my xbox worked just fine with it, then I removed the cap and forgot to clean and it FRAGd, but once I got in there with a qtip and rubbing alcohol I had no issues, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
