    Yeah, they have been back online for a few years. That's why I use my original Xbox-Scene avatar image. I joined this site (OGXbox) in 2017 when it opened as an alternative. I love that we can upload images directly without using Photobucket. As for my Error 7 issue, I am going to try out a different SATA Adapter and hope it solves my problem. For now, I haven't used the soft restart at all lately; I just manually power my Xbox off and on if needed.

    Yeah, I figured my Startech is starting to hate my Samsung DVD Drive. It used to work fine doing controller restarts in the past if I remember correctly. I will have a look. Xbox-Scene is the best. I still have my original account with them since 2005. I hope I don’t have to change adapters but we shall see. For now, soft restarts on my controller aren’t mandatory anyway. I can just get up and shut the console off.

    It’s a 24” 80-Wire cable from Rontech. I recently discovered the company website no longer exists. Maybe I should upgrade to new cable. Could the DVD Drive be the issue? It works. I rarely use it except for the occasional DVD2Xbox.

    If this skin had working Weather plugins, I would use it. It looks nice. I used it in the past many years ago on one of my modded Xbox consoles.

    My Softmodded v1.6 is having issues on soft restarts. It’s going into an Error 07. Weird because it’s running an Samsung EVO SSD and a Startech adapter that I Installed a few years ago. Any clues? It doesn’t have a boot issue. It has an issue with soft restarts using my controller with the four button method from XBMC and the softmod.

    Were you able to sort out your DVD Drive issue?

    I disabled DASH and the included inv (puffy) is already US based but I changed it as you suggested and YouTube script errors and the previous API messages are still occurring. The positive to this is that the console is still able to retrieve the videos from YouTube's server but the video will not start when selected.

    Wow, It's finally revived. I installed it today (3-29-2024) and everything loaded up but the plugin failed to start any videos that I chose. See attachments:

    Samspin, good to hear. The Corsair looks good for only $7. Those WD Icepacks are ugly...haha

    Dave, yes, it's a Softmodded v1.6 console. I'm running modded games on here so far: GTASA (5 vehicles, 7 weapons), THUG 2 (6 Custom decks and a custom tee) & a modded Forza Motorsport 1 (several custom scripts for tuning vehicles with Ekszbox Forzamod). It's running these games quickly for sure. I noticed the cursor on the GTASA pause menu over the map was blinking faster...lol Falcon, that tray looks good. I'm going to order one if my SSD will fit. Does the tray mount to the Xbox's current HDD tray?

    After several attempts at an refurbished WD 1TB SATA HDD, Kingwin ADP-06 adapter and 80 wire IDE cable, I threw those all into closet storage and went for the best instead. A brand new Samsung EVO 500GB SSD, Startech adapter and a Rontech 80 wire IDE cable...and an 80mm Noctua. Results are pretty cool to own:

    Starting off with hefty modifications. Very nice. I'll be following up on this project for sure.
  15. Infamous Ob
    Yeah, this is sick. I've been trying to run my modded GTASA on my modded Xbox recently. Overall, I like the things you've done so far.
  16. Infamous Ob
    #NextLevel for sure. Amazing project.
  17. Infamous Ob
    Yeah, I miss Xbox-Scene. I wish I would have purchased one of their t-shirts before they all sold out. Xbox Modding has given such an unlimited outlet of things to do. There's so much to learn. I still am looking for an Vantec Iceberq 4 Pro to this day...lol

    Infamous Ob replied to wikati's topic in Case Mods

    The distance between each mounting hole (GPU) on the motherboard is 80mm. I may be wrong, but I believe so.
  19. Infamous Ob
    It's solid work for sure. It looks like you've done your research and took your time building it. God job Sonic Modder.
  20. Infamous Ob
    Yeah, I could've made top of the case much smoother when I removed the fins...haha Yes, it was another fun build. Most of the mods were on-the-fly as I worked with it. I think extending the PSU wires was the longest part of it all. The software mods were pretty much, XBMC, stock HDD, Maybe a few UnleashX skins for the UnleashX dash, I think THUG (Tony Hawk's Underground) was loaded on the HDD and maybe GTAVC (Grand Theft Auto: Vice City). I can't remember much of it but I forgot how I tricked the bios to bypass the DVD Drive check on boot-up.
  21. Infamous Ob
    Thanks codeasm, it was fun build back then when I built it. I wish I knew what I know now, but it was a time when Xbox-Scene existed and I was learning so much.
  22. Infamous Ob
    Probably my favorite mod of 2008. Xbox Slimbox using a Mountain Dew theme. I cut the label from a 2-Liter bottle and the paint was some sort of Rust-Oleum that I found at the store. Clear faceplate pieces on the external PSU for bracing, removed the top of the stock 60mm fans to save on height, used tape to protect the DVD Drive daughterboard. haha I could have made it much neater.
  23. Infamous Ob
    Here's a custom mod I did back in 2008 of an Xbox converted over to a Xbox 360 case. I was running UnleashX using an 360 skin. It's funny looking at my old photos and seeing what things I did. Lots of improvising. Notice the rear of the case? haha

    This thread breaks my heart...

    Very impressive work.
