From the Wayback Machine's capture of xbox-scene.com's modchip pictures: X3 - http://web.archive.org/web/20141027150737/http://www.xbox-scene.com/modchips/xecuter3_pictures.html and X3CE - http://web.archive.org/web/20150510044644/http://www.xbox-scene.com/modchips/xecuter3ce_pictures.html

It's not really an X3 Control Panel (X3CP) PCB as the silkscreen shows in the Gerber files. It's an X3 Reset/Eject Adapter PCB. Item #3 in the X3 Parts List image below. (I need to try and find one of these Parts List images for the X3CE too if Team Xecuter ever released one. Isn't it's PCB a different color? I need to double check. Edit: Yes it is, the X3CE is RED on the back (logo) side and WHITE on the component side.)

Check the directory listing of the files on the DVD (D:\) on the Xbox What are the sizes of default.xbe and config.xml?

You must mean component cable for an High Definition AV Pack, not composite in the first sentence. If the screen gets jumbled when you start a game, you must have a 1.6 console. The Xcalibur video encoder does that on v1.6 consoles. You'll need to install XBMC4Xbox and the 480p game loader script to patch the games so they run properly. Or, you can use XBMC4Gamers. I believe this pre-built distribution of it has the script installed.
-
Which AV cable are you using? Not that it should make any difference. I'm using the standard definition composite cable in all of my testing.

Are all the Samsung drives listed in your table the same drive that boot some installer discs but not others?

By Similar operations during the startup process, I mean: When powered on, the flubber animation plays, the DVD heads move to recognize the HeXEN 2018 disc that's preloaded in the DVD tray then beneath the big X logo appears: Xecuter Rox My Box More data is read from the disc and the front panel Eject ring LEDs turn RED. There's a long delay of about 40-45 seconds that I believe is the processing of the config.xml file for UnleashX. Next, the big Xbox logo with Xecuter logo below it fade to a blank screen and in a few seconds finally, HeXEn's main menu appears and options from it can be selected and executed. I never see an UnleashX logo appear between the fade out of the big X screen and the appearance of the menu. Sorry, I did not make it clear what was happening in my previous post. The burned disc I have made for HeXEn 2017, 2018 and TruHeXEn 2019 all work. They all boot to the main menu and operations can be performed from the menu. My Xbox is a v1.1 and has a Philips DVD drive.

On my Xbox with an X3 modchip booting the X3 BIOS Build 3294 with the HeXEn 2018 disc already loaded into the tray. I see similar operations; however, I never see an UnleashX splash screen. The console displays HeXEn's main menu. Are you using HeXEn 2017, 2018 or TruHeXEn 2019? (Oops you already said the versions you'd tried earlier)
-
When booting HeXEn, is the Eject ring RED?
-
Get into X3 Config Live (hold the white button on startup) then use the menu option Reset X3 Configuration to Defaults. Does it work now?
-
Which version Xbox? Which BIOS and version of it are you booting from the X3 modchip? Evox - m7 ,m8, m8plus; X2 - 4979-4983 or 5035; X3 - Build 1879, 2914, 3029, 3294, etc.; ind-bios - 5003 or Beta Feb-11-05 (aka 5004) or something else. Which hard drive type is installed: IDE or SATA? If SATA, which IDE-to-SATA adapter? And, are you using a 80-wire 40-pin high-speed IDE cable with it?
-
F is the first extended partition, number 6 in the list on the main page. When you run XBpartitioner v1.3, do you first get an error message screen stating that LBA48 support is not found in your BIOS?
-
Which BIOS / Kernel version does it currently have flashed to it? which dashboard starts when you power on the console? Update: Okay UnleashX replacement dashboard. HeXEn start's it's own BIOS that supports the larger hard drives than 137GB which after formatting leaves ~123GBs for F with an older BIOS/Kernel version without LBA48 support.

The replacement jewels I've found aren't the same domed shape as the originals. They are cut from a plastic sheet the same size as the opening in the top of the case and engraved/etched with a logo/text and can be attached where the original jewel mounted. See: https://www.chimericsystems.com/product/custom-xbox-jewels

Create a free MEGA account. You get up to 50GB's to start. I believe the available space drops after 30 days but if the file's already there it doesn't get deleted. Not that this is going to be 50GBs.

Yes

Which softmod did you use to mod the console? Does UIX even have an FTP server to upload new content to the Xbox's hard drive? I've not used it in a long, long time and have a hard enough time remembering what I did yesterday.
-
I missed this post oh so long ago. Did you sell the X-BIT? Is it a 1.0 or 1.5 version? I believe those were the two different releaes.

Changing Dashboard UnleashX To EvoX

Which softmod package did you use to mod the Xbox? -
You can't flash a X-B.I.T. with the Xbox. You have to use the correct version of the X-B.I.T. dev team's flashing program for your modchip with a USB cable connected to the external bank select switch panel/USB port PCB. I believe it's either a 1.0 or a 1.5 version. The apps don't work across both versions of the modchip. I've never actually seen one of these modchips in real-life. I've only read about them in old web pages archived by the Wayback Machine.

You are very welcome. Happy to see that you finally were able to make things work. Not sure why they were not in the first place. Now onto bigger and better adventures! -

Oh, don't write anything to the E drive. If XBPartitioner v1.3's not already there, upload it to C or run it off of a Hexen 2018 or TruHexen 2019 installer disc. -

Let's see if we can find the missing files first before redoing everything. They should not have disappeared from E. How much free space was left on E? -

Where were your games installed? The only partition that should have been affected is C. E, F and/or G should have remained the same as they were before running Quick Upgrade's default.xbe. -

Run XBPartitioner v1.3 and post a screenshot of the main screen showing all the partitions' settings.
