Okay then I won't panic. lol. Find a parts console with a bad DVD drive for cheap. Good way to acquire a working console!

Fuck the wires and shrinkwrap. That's retarded. I wire up the negative so I can anchor the LED in place with the resistor. MUCH easier to anchor from one hard point instead of between two hard points. I make sure it all fits under and within the metal shielding.

They are a part of the Xecuter 3 front panel.

I ended up copying the XBMC folder that is used as an app into the C drive then using Rocky5's dashloader from Xbox-Softmodding-Tool pointed the custom dash to the proper .xbe file. The dvd drive no longer works as I would of used the slayer 2.7 installer disc to change the default dashboard. I did however backed everything up using fatxplorer just incase I could not ftp into the xbox. Hopefully I can still ftp and use insignia I will find out in a day or two that is usually when the xbox resets itself.

Hello! For those people with a Xenium modchip, I have made an open source recreation of a legacy adaptor that allowed you to use extremely common and cheap HD44780 compliant character LCD displays with the Xenium modchip SPI interface. The legacy adaptor was called 'SPI2PAR' and has long since been out of production and extremely hard to come by. The old website actually still works for now (http://cheaplpc.com/xenlcd/) if you want to see what it was all about. This design and info is all on my github page https://github.com/Ryzee119/spi2par2019 It does everything the old one does I believe (although I never had one), but it also can read the Xbox SMBus directly with a couple extra wires to the LPC header for temperatures from the ADM1032 onboard temperature chip and fan speed which are displayed and updated on the LCD mid-game. It can also read the Conexant and Focus video chips to work out was resolution your game is running at which is displayed on the LCD aswell. (This doesnt work on a 1.6 though due to the Xcalibur chip) XBMC can already display these, but these extra SMBus features will only apply when you're in a game or program that doesn't normally support LCD. Works best on a 20x4 character display.

That’s why I quoted it. I knew that but some may not understand extruded so left it in lame terms but quoted it since it’s not exactly etched.

I put the 60GB OCZ Agility II in one and here are the results. Keep in mind, I don't have a full set of xbox games on this one, so UnleashX is faster by default because of that. I also don't have CO8M, Emustation, or PS1 on here. This SSD also released in 2010, I'm sure the numbers would be better with a newer one. 3TB 7200 HDD 3TB 7200 HDD 60GB SSD UDMA 2 (Mode 4) UDMA 5 (Mode 32) UDMA 6 (Mode 64) Console Off to XBMC4Gamers = 36 seconds 34 seconds 32 seconds XBMC4Gamers to Emustation = 16 15 Not installed XBMC4Gamers to UnleashX = 51 50 12 (don't rely on this, as there are barely any games installed vs a full set) XBMC4Gamers IGR = 33 32 25 UnleashX Soft Reset = 18 15 14 XBMC4Gamers to CoinOps8Massive = 12 11 Not installed XBMC4Gamers to Xenon's PS1 Pack = 15 14 Not Installed XBMC4Gamers to Xenon's NES Pack = 16 14 13 XBMC4Gamers to Halo CE (No Trainers) = 27 25 25 XBMC4Gamers to Halo 2 (No Trainers) = 34 32 29 XBMC4Gamers to Def Jam FFNY (No Trainers) = 26 24 21

I look at this post now and I realize how far I have come in such a short time... Thank you @sweetdarkdestiny for being supportive at a time when I needed it. You were a great help Sorry for deviating from the topic.

That’s the latest, unless someone backports the newer version we are out of luck.

Thanks bud. 128MB ram and custom power on off sounds, led strips + led ring. 16tb has XBMC4Gamers Dragon 4TB build and I added to it and changed it to start in XBMX4GAMERS instead of dragon at boot. Dragon is a cerbios hdd - So yeah I got cerbios going with stellar hd+ but had to strip the cci games out and use folder method on this one.

Did the Xecuter 3 box.

I found this and thought it would potentially make a nice jewel backlight. They are paper thin, 10cm x 10cm EL panels. They are cheap and simple. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000511081220.html?spm=a2g0o.productlist.0.0.3cc67ef9BTKbRB&algo_pvid=70858ccc-5276-4812-92bf-166bf11b0c47&algo_exp_id=70858ccc-5276-4812-92bf-166bf11b0c47-8&pdp_ext_f={"sku_id"%3A"12000019280130651"}&pdp_npi=2%40dis!CAD!!12.2!!!!!%402101d91e16555800182977430ed7b3!12000019280130651!sea There is a little inverter for the panel, but its small enough to fit behind the harddrive. Its powered by the extra molex connector on the startech ide to sata board. They come in 3.3v, 5v, and 12v. I got a few 5v panels, and a few 12v panels, since thats the available power from the molex. I thought maybe 12v would be brighter, but no, its the same. The panels are all the same. Its only the inverter that is different. Some 12v panels I ordered came with a slightly larger inverter that will not fit in behind the harddrive. So, if you order one of these, make sure its the small inverter that is included.
