From my past experience, it was always a bad download or transfer that caused that issue. Have you tried just the normal .iso files or converting them into .cci using Repackinator? Those would seem to be the easier trials to run first.

It's already on the previous page.

I’ll put my money on bad file transfers. What method was used to get them on the Xbox and where did you get the games from?

This is very similar to a post I made almost 3 weeks ago that somehow didn’t get a single comment lol. Here What software version is your HD+? Have you tried reverting to previous version? Are you not using an OpenXenium chip with your HD+? I’ve made some progress, but still getting freezes on two separate consoles. I’m thinking it has more to do with the HD+ not playing nicely with anything but the patched M8 bios. Good to see this post getting some attention because I’m just as curious.

You should run the app to see if your chip is updated or not. Your issue could be a number of things. I suppose it’s possible that those TVs don’t have a compatible output. What bios are you using?

They are a part of the Xecuter 3 front panel.

Are those decals or etched into the prints? I really want one of these now.

Start a new thread for help.

Thank you for that. There were many links posted here and I had never heard of that site until today so it left me a bit lost. My account is waiting for approval now

Would someone be so kind as to provide a link to this .cci set? I lost my data drive last night with everything on it. Why is there no link here?

Please start a new thread for better assistance.

Youtube has some full playthrough videos of both games that you could check out. That would give you the best possible answer as far as what the difference is. The solution could be a number of things. First suspects would be the caps and the clock cap mainly if it is still in there.

I have a few new, 80 wire cables lying around. If you want to send me your address in a DM I will see how much it would cost to ship one to you. You’re definitely going to overpay at most places if you’re ordering internationally. Does Canada not have Amazon facilities?

That’s an impossible question to answer. These things are up to 23 years old now. Cap lifespan varies so much due to climate, usage, smokers home, etc. every Xbox is treated differently and a 23 year old cap isn’t long for this world. I 100% can tell you that any amount of time with leakage on the board is just allowing it to eat through the traces. First thing I do with every Xbox these days, is open them up and replace the caps.

Could be signs of capacitors going bad. I hear some people say it starts to affect the in game graphics. You’re going to want to open that thing up and check the caps’ condition and remove the clock cap for good, if you’re on any revision before a 1.6

You can transfer the new bios file to C:bios folder(create it if it’s not there). Then go to Flash Bank and select the bios you want to flash. That’s all you should need to do. I don’t know much about the auto detect mode on Startech. It’s probably” best to leave that alone and just go with the maximum UDMA your drive supports. UDMA5 if you’re not using an ssd. As for the X-Changer, Xenium chips operate the same way. You can change it to boot instantly to your dash or into xeniumOS, within the Xenium Settings. You’ll want to turn on instant boot and select what bios to boot. Eject should take you to XeniumOS by default.

Anyone who pays that much money needs to consult a professional for mental health issues.

No, one has no slope under the HDD tray. You can see the difference in the thread that SSDave linked to on the first page. The .stl is even mislabeled as upright.

Awesome. Thanks for providing this for us. I have provided a direct link to the process for others to view.

I’m searching everywhere for a HDD to dvd bracket that fits my needs. I’m fairly new the 3D printing/.stl scene so please send any suggestions. The one that would work perfectly is also using the mounting holes for Nemesis’ LED kit so that’s ruled out. This one:

Just a heads up, the provided .stl file, is not for the fan shroud in the picture. It is for the version that the designer said was not ideal and did not work well. If anyone has the .stl for the the upright fan shroud in the picture, that would be greatly appreciated. Note: it is the same in Maddy’s provided .stl pack as well. I checked them all and apparently was just labeled incorrectly from the start.

Put it here so others can voice their opinions or possibly even answer your questions.

This is what needs to be altered on just the disc tray. I really don’t want to have to modify the part from Nemesis so I’m on the search for something more suitable. Good thing that 3D printing thread got some love this past week.

It has the potential, but is currently not compatible with his kit. I need to do some trimming to the DVD bracket and possibly a little on the hdd housing. Still a work in progress. I'm more than likely going to need an entirely new setup on the disc drive side.

After hitting so many walls in my recent projects, it’s nice to have at least one idea come to fruition. This has probably been done before, but I’ve never seen it so I thought I’d share my success story. I have achieved complete IDE elimination with this awesome Startech adapter. Downside is the size of the adapter, but I have a few ideas to make it work. The speeds are really good thus far, but I haven’t done much testing outside of menus. Look past the mess of cables lol. https://imgur.com/a/Ima00KO
