I don't know if the Build 138 info I found in old posts in forums.xbox-scene.com is accurate or a typo. I don't find a 138 build just 137's The version on my Xbox may have bootimage.png embedded in the default.xbe file; however, I've not tracked down its location. There are mentions of w:\bootimage.png and bootimage.png in strings found inside the executable using a hex editor. Edit: Found a PNG file, not sure of its name. The data stored in the file doesn't actually contain the name of the image. I'll see if I can extract it from the file to see what it looks like. There does seem to be only one dot PNG file embedded in the XBE file. Edit2: I don't think it's an image just part of the PNG library - the magic number used to recognize image files as being stored in PNG format.

What version is your Xbox? If it's a v1.0, replace the fan on the GPU heatsink or the entire heatsink from a later release of the console that has no fan since it has taller fins for a larger surface area to transfer the heat away from the GPU without needing a fan. That's your one question answered. Or, did you want the other one answered instead.

Do you have the Avalaunch 0.49.3 Xmas Build 138 archive? If so, will you share it?

Upgrade to the latest release 0.49.3 (Edit: From the info I've found - 0.49.3 is Build 137 while the XMas Build is 138.) I also found this info posted in an old forums.xbox-scene.com entry (rebuilt site from archived data now at forums.xboxscene.org) https://forums.xboxscene.org/index.php/topic,85620.msg711064.html#msg711064 Help With Avalaunch by Hazanko « on: August 25, 2005, 02:55:00 PM » is there anyway to change the startup screen on avaluanch? what i have right now, is that Happy Xmas startup screen with that anime chick in a santa suit. maybe it isn't possible to change it, because i looked all over in the avalaunch folder on my Xbox, and didn't find anything. thx for any help ...

No. You are to measure continuity from the violet and cyan colored via on the front edge of the motherboard to the same color-coded pin on the PIC processor. The top 3/4 of the picture is the PIC processor and the bottom 1/4 of the picture shows the location of the vias by the front panel connector.

Possibly. The hard drive has to be unlocked for it to have any chance of working. Does it have a standalone cloning function? Next, it depends how its cloning function is implemented - some devices do known file system copying while others do sector-by-sector. It needs to do the later, sector-by-sector cloning, to work. Oops, I was thinking of the wrong question. Yes, you can connect that to your PC and use FATXplorer Beta 3.0 to copy files to the Xbox hard drive. Again, the hard drive has to be unlocked. With a hard modded console, the hard drive can be left unlocked. For a softmodded console, the hard drive has to be re-LOCKED with the correct password.

Connect the hard drive to your PC and use FATXplorer Beta 3.0 to copy files to the various partitions.

Make sure that the power supply is producing a 3.3Vdc standby (STB) voltage level when AC is connected to the console. There is a section of the power supply that is always on. With a multimeter, measure the D.C. voltage level between the brown and black wire connections on the motherboard's power supply connector. If not, make sure that the solder joints for the AC power connector on the Power Supply Unit are not broken. If they are, they need to be cleaned (most likely have sparked in the past) and resoldered with some new lead-based rosin core solder. Next, make sure that there is continuity from the power and eject button to the PIC processor pins as discussed in this Wayback Machine capture of diy.sickmods.net's web page - web.archive.org/web/20150227170644/http://diy.sickmods.net/Tutorials/Xbox1/Power-Eject_Pinouts/ Note: The Wayback Machine was having access issues when I posted this messasge.

Yes. Which softmod package did he use: Softmod Installer Deluxe 5.xx (SID), Xbox Softmodding Tool Build v1.1.8, nDure, other?

The softmod is a set of files stored on the hard drive. With your clone of a hardmodded HDD configuration, there is no softmod installed. Thus, the stock dashboard boots. If you now softmod the console with Rocky5's Xbox Softmodding Tool, the replacement dashboard UnleashX will boot and the files you already placed in the E, F and/or G drives should be accessible.

You need to know that XBE files the BIOSes are looking for in their boot order list. There are many different configurations available on all of the latest installer discs as well as those for the xbins original distributions of the BIOSes. For X2 5035 and ind-bios 5003/5004, they use a text file stored on the hard drive to make changes to their settings which includes the XBE files they attempt to load for a replacement dashboard. LBA48 Support As long as the BIOS has LBA48 v2 or later support included, it does NOT matter which version .06 or .67 of the BIOS you have flashed to the modchip. The one thing that does matter is that XBPartitioner v1.3 wrote a partition table to the hard drive. This partition table is stored in the first sector of the hard drive. With the partition table present, the BIOS's default LBA48 configuration setting is overridden by the partition settings stored on the hard drive in the partition table. You can use Evoxdash to check the contents of your hard drive to see if a partition table is present. 1. Run Evoxdash 2. Connect to your Xbox with an FTP client (Filezilla is used in the example below.) 3. Select Server > Enter custom command... from the menu: 4. In the pop-up Window that appears key-in: site dumphddsector 0 1 [Edit: site keyword not needed.] Click OK to execute the command. Doing so will dump the contents of 1 sector starting at sector 0 of the hard drive. 5. Look in the log window section of Filezilla for the display of the partition table. Command: dumphddsector 0 1 Response: *00000000 : 2a 2a 2a 2a 50 41 52 54 49 4e 46 4f 2a 2a 2a 2a | ****PARTINFO**** Response: *00000010 : 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 | ................

Then, either the modchip does not have the XeniumOS flashed to it or the connections to the LPC debug port are not being made. Reflow the solder on all the pins - especially pin 2 - do not add any more solder.

Which version of Chimp are you running? Okay, I went back in the video and see that it is version 261812. Hmmm, it should not take as loooooong as it does for the word Microsoft to appear under the big X logo at the end of the flubber (startup) animation. There do seem to be many different firmware versions for that model of Western Digital hard drives. Not sure if that's causing a problem or not. Some lock and some do not. Your's does lock so it should be good to use with the Xbox. I'm not sure why it's not working correctly. I need to think on it....
