Oh boy.... You need to do a trace repair with some jumper wires from via to via but how it looks, you should some one else do the job. And why do you want to install an aladdin in a nice TSOP'ed 1.0/1.1 ?
-
The answer is the same like on i gave you on reddit. Load a more modern Installer and flash a more or less modern bios like the EvoX m8 pus CEE

You are not wrong. The old releases indeed sometimes needed that long to boot. Problem was one config with ~ 4500 lines of code and the autoscan function. UnleashX is not realy made to load up that much code of a DVD. So splitting up the config into soft and hard mod config, cleaning out all the commend lines (which are btw. false) and hardcoding the live apps instead of let the dvd scan for the apps folder on the DVD (Why scanning for it when you know whats there?), the boot times are now pretty good. Took some nights to figgure all that out but the end was nice. I still have a copy of the version I made which I handed ToxicMedz so if you're interested in it to compare or just for fun, let me know and I send you a pm with the DL link.

There are some reasons to use a BFM bios for an installer. Mainly, you can make use of things which are not supportet by the bios the user have on his mod chip or are not active. You can make sure it's a .67/FG bios in case the user uses a old bios which dosn't support partition 7 (Happends every now and then). You can make use some gimmicks which would not be possible without a BFM bios (Disk swap for example which is usefull if you like to make an addon disk which can be side loaded in the main installer (Damn spoiler )). And like Kaos already wrote, you can use also a debug bios to run an debug dash on your console which for the most pll doesn't make any sense. Over all, for 98% of the users which just like to use there xbox to play games, a BFM bios has no use.

2.7 is the last version Slayer has made. How ever, there are some updated version floting around which make use of a BFM bios and have softmod stuff added but the most of them also use old apps. BTT. TruHeXEn 2021 boots up in just some seconds (30 sec max if you use a thomson which is a bit - slow.) on every XBox. Since the main config is splittet into a soft and hardmod section and some other bugs got fixed (autoscan etc:) the disc is fast. How ever, I personaly have still my problems with it because ToxicMedz sadly decided to re-add some major flaws of the old releases. Anyway, if someone like TruHeXEn, go with the 2021. It's the best version beside the 2018 release (Which some ppl still prefere over any other version). And if you search for more, take a look at the OGXBox Installer.
-
Slayers didn't use a BFM bios (Ofc depending on which slayers you use, some does like 3.37 for example.). Problem could be still the used HDD or the dvd media you used.
-
Not anymore. Since I have fixed TruHeXEn it boots very fast. How erver, it sounds to me like there is a WD green in the xbox. Very typical to sit on the X Logo screen when head parking is enabled.

Realy? Was it my spelling - again? ( I knew it was "that" insead of "which". Damn it. ) :D

It's not your eyes. It's the parts which getting smaller.

Pic of the traces for the LPC : https://imgur.com/a/jj8AONv It might come handy.

I need to guess here and say it's just bad development and some ppl. say that the Devs (DMS) didn't care about the problems. The 1.5 at release was already more or less dead so I think it wasn't worth the hassle for them just for a hand full of user.
-
Yeah, ppl. have a lot of problems because of modern hardware. What I found out is that the intel 8/9 chipset works no problem using windows 98 and 2k (Tested on a Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600 which I got for 10 Euros). It should also work with XP but that thats untested on my side (Need an extra HDD to test that which I don't have atm.). But another user here used a Dell Dimension 3000 with XP and worked for him (Also Intel 9 chipset (915 if I'm not total wrong)). So I'm take a huge guess that all older Dell Dimension will work with the XBit as long as they have an Intel CPU inside (The AMD versions use a NVidea chipset which I assume are not working). And there is an Linux tool for it which works with modern PC but most ppl. don't use linux and they also don't like the bash (because the tool didn't has a GUI) or can compile code so it's not for everyone. So the only thing which is needed is someone with enough skill and some spare time to write a flasher for windows with a basic gui.
-
The XBit is a nice modchip when you have the right old hardware on hand to flash it. You basicly just need a PC/Laptop with Intel 8 or 9 chipset and you will have no problems flashing it. And with XBlastOS and a 1.6 EvoX (For softmodding) and 1.0-1.4 EvoX (For TSOP Flashing) on it it's also a great tool because of the pogo pins. How ever, I like both of my XBits (1.0 & 1.5).
-
There should be a torrent on AP. And it takes a long time to download. And as far as I know there isn't another source for it but I can be wrong here. And better go with XBMC4Gamers and get the "things we don't talk about" on archive.org.

You Aladdin has a Lattice. His and the one I modded for the dude the other day had a no lattice cotroller chip. Maybe thats the problem. Cheap knock off.
-
That ain't work Dave. He tried that and me tried that also. BT to point 2 on the Aladdin and alt DO to GND = no boot. And DO to Aladdin results also in a non booting console.
-
I don't have the answer for it but I ran into the same issue like you 2 days ago with the same modchip (Tagget as Super Aladdin, installed in 2005 like the owner told me). I ended up to leave L1 & BT atteched because everthing I tried ended up in a not booting console. Just for security I also flashed the TSOP on that console. NOw he has a multi bios coinsle. So maybe TSOP flashing the XBox and removing the chip is a thing you should consider.
-
That is very weird. For usual that trick works for error 16. Yes the ISO should be burend with IMGBurn and on a DVD-R (Best choice are Verbertim). RW media most like don't work. What media do you use? Is tehre anything else you ever burned on the media you use right now that works? (So that we can confim it's not the DVD it self?). One last trick. Download this pack :https://1fichier.com/?kinvner9q3c4dy7yiobz Copy the folder C to your C partition and E to E and see if your XBox boots up. -
To fix error 16 just format the HDD on your PC with FatXplorer. After that put it back in your xbox and the error 16 should be gone and you can boot the installer.
-
There is your problem. Use non RW media like "Verbatim DVD-R".
-
You can't run this disk or better the content of this disk of your HDD. It's made to run from disk and it searches there for files. How do you burn the ISO? (Best is to use ImgBurn). Have you downloaded the right file (OGXBox Installer 2021 - v1.5.4.rar - for the most users)?

0xbf52,"SST 49LF020A",0x40000; 0xbf57,"SST 49LF002A / 49LF002B",0x40000 0xbf61,"SST 49LF020",0x40000 Stupid question. Which HeXEn version you have?

Need help with aladdin 1.6 XBox nott booting
sweetdarkdestiny replied to almmiron's topic in Hardware Mods
Maybe to long file names or forbidden signs. Both is possible. There are some games out there which can't copied to HDD because of that. Problem soved. Not always. Sometimes you need to patch the game using DVD2XBox. And some games didn't work at all (not much). That depends. If DVD2XBox isn't able to fix the error I would try to use the game as XISO using an iND XISO Bios + XBMC4Gamers -
TL866 II Plus Programmer + Winbond W49F020T-90B
sweetdarkdestiny replied to sweetdarkdestiny's topic in TSOP Flashing
Finaly I found the solution to read and WRITE the Winbond W49F020T-90B correctly. So grab the " M29F002BT " like Daefledar mentioned. Then select " ADD IC BY USE " and use the M29F002BT as reference. Add your own name " W49F020T-90B " and add manufactor " Winbond ". Device ID as usual " DA C8 ". (See screen shot) : https://imgur.com/a/wsiJ2d4 Now you can read and write the TSOP using the addoed profile without any problem. I did that now 3 times to check. I also checked the written/dumped bios (EvoX) with EvTool and damn, it works! Btw. The " Check ID " box needs to be disabled. Here is a video how it works and the proof that it work : https://youtu.be/3Sj6634y8yQ EDIT : And btw. a new update for the programmer is out (11.71) : https://www.mediafire.com/folder/hfg5kfj7euw5j/xgecu -
Need help with aladdin 1.6 XBox nott booting
sweetdarkdestiny replied to almmiron's topic in Hardware Mods
The noDVD Bios disables the DVD check when you power on your xbox. It's useful in case your DVD stop working. It basicly prevents you to get an DVD error massage on boot.
