So I figured it out: Go to Configuration - Set Default Game Configuration and change SNES Controller to Multi Player 5.

BTW: I am running the most up to date version installable via XBMC4gamers.

I have the same issue. I have an old emulator which handles 4 players, however does not do 720p. Does any one know of a version that does mulitap AND 720p? Cheers!

Thx, but as I said: ever since my flash, the Xchanger OS has disappeared whatever button I press. I guess I have to flash using evolutionX. Cheers!

BTW I fixed my FTP problem today. In my router the LAN port was switched from me from 1 Gb to 100 Mb as I thought ye olde Xbox can' t make use of it anyway. Today I switched it back to 1 Gb and now it is connected again. Doesn't make sense but what does nowadays.

Thx for the comfort, really appreciate it. @KaosEngineer: Do you have experience with this kind of issue? Here is what I found out about the X2.5: https://www.xbox-hq.com/html/modules.php?name=News&file=print&sid=2722 Cheers!

Thx for the tip. Before my flash and change of HDD I had no issues with ftp. I am not emotionally attached to my modchip (which is an X-Changer v2.5), but I am not the soldering kind of guy so would like to leave it as is. I also remember that one was able to flash the X-Changer with evolutionX if a line was added in its .ini. Is that correct? If not am I doomed to use Cerbios v2.3.2 alpha UDMA2 for eternety? And, finally, why did the X-Changer OS disappear or can't I just not access it? Shouldn't a flash leave it untouched? Again, thx for all your valuable input.

Maybe to clarify: Pressing the eject button starts Cerbios safemode with Unleash X (only today did it show the safemode icon). The power button starts XBMC4gamers. The X-Changer OS apparently had a quickboot option when pressing the eject button w/o opening the tray (very convenient in my opinion). I have read somewhere that flashing an X-Changer w/ Xblast etc. is not possible. So how can I flash it then if no X-Changer OS present? BTW (and might be unrelated): Having FTP issues. One day it works, then suddenly slow, then after FileZilla update back up again and then today no connection at all. Seems I have a FTP poltergeist in my box.

Thank you for your input and the info about UDMA5. Every since I flashed Cerbios, my X-Changer OS has disappeared, which, I guess, makes sense, so I cannot use it to flash a new bios. Hence, I cannot get into its settings. Or am I wrong here? That's why I think I have to do it via boot disc or can I do this directly from HDD? Which app would you then recommend? Sorry for the many questions, I am just very careful since my last experience.

So, I thought I ask this time before I do anything stupid: Now that I have an SATA HDD with Startech adapter and the proper 80 wires ribbon cable, can't I flash a CerBIOS that enables UDMA6? Checking my CerBIOS 2.3.2 Alpha with the Cerbios Tool, I found out that it is UDMA2. Do I flash the UDMA6 version using XBlast OS via boot disc or can I do it via HDD and ftp? And what is the difference to UDMA auto detect (Startech)? And something else: With the X-Changer bios I was able to boot differently by pressing either the power or eject button. Conveniently, the tray never opend when booting via the eject button. Now, I can also boot to different dashboards depending which button I press. However, when pressing the eject button the tray now opens everytime which is kind of annoying. Is there a way to turn that off? Thx in advance for any thoughts on that matter!

Good morning everyone! To give you an update: I sucessfully installed a new SATA HDD to my old XBOX. Everything is working fine. And it seems that the problem was my old IDE HDD. Connecting it to my PC, it did not work properly (lights flashing etc.) and FATXplorer wasn't able to find it. Either accidentally or because of the shock of getting a new BIOS, it must have crashed and burned. Well, it has done its work the last decades admirably - may it rest in peace. So, all things considered, everything is working again. Thank you all for your splendid support, awesome advice and help. It is really much appreciated. Cheers, southcamp

Great minds think alike;-)

Thx. I was thinking of putting the IDE HDD into a case I have left and then use FATXplorer to get the files. Hope it will show the folders correctly. I ordered the parts to connect an SATA to the XBOX. But before that I need a functioning boot disc. Hopefully the new discs will work.

Hey, thanks once more. I tried to do this today, but my PC wasn't able to read the drives C - Y. It showed them weirdly in my FTP programme and I couldn't access them.
