From the archive's Readme.txt file: Bios has been patched to fix the white+back shutdown bug and also the Ram speed patch has been applied. ( Patching done by xbox7887 from discord, great guy. ) Referring to the bug where the 4 button combo to turn off the console, Left Trigger + Right Trigger + White + Back, activates when only the White and Back buttons are pressed. CoinOPS uses the White+Back button combo which is hard to use when the console shuts off when pressed. CoinOPS Advanced Game Controls BACK and WHITE - Pause Game and Remap Keys or Cheat BACK and BLACK - Show Framerate And Free Memory BACK and Left Trigger and Right Trigger - Restart Game BACK and Right Thumb Button - Onscreen Display BACK and Right Trigger and Right Thumb Button - Load Game ( Buggy ) BACK and Left Trigger and Right Thumb Button - Save Game ( Buggy ) BACK and Left Thumb Button - Lightgun Crosshair Display BACK and A and B - Take In Game Snapshot Source: CoinOPS Tricks and Help - CoinOPS - 1Emulation.com

3 Reboots Then Flashing Red and Orange (V1.0 Not Modded)
KaosEngineer replied to roB3AR's topic in Repair
RAM failure. It can also be caused by the reset signal not reaching the RAM on startup. Damaged trace(s) that carry the signal to them. -
Error 16 and/or error 21 after 128mb mod OG xbox 1.6
KaosEngineer replied to pejman1998's topic in Repair
M8+ BIOS should never give you an error 16. It does not require the clock to be set as does the stock Xbox BIOS. Edit: Hmm, is your modchip installed with the BT pad connected to a resistor that taps off of the power button signal or in always on mode (shown below), by connecting BT to ground on the modchip? Click image for a larger view Double check that all of the solder joints to the modchip are good. Share images of the LPC Debug port solder joints. Edit2: Which modchip is installed? -
Error 16 and/or error 21 after 128mb mod OG xbox 1.6
KaosEngineer replied to pejman1998's topic in Repair
No, from what I recall, error 21 means that the stock dashboard files are corrupt or incomplete. -

Is the stock MS dashboard installed on the C drive? Where's your replacement dashboard installed? Does CerBIOS's settings file, Cerbios.ini, have a path set to it for one of the boot order list entries: -

SmartXX V2 Modchip and big Hdds (2TB drive)
KaosEngineer replied to Estrichleger's topic in Modchips
Unless you buy an 80-wire 40-pin IDE cable made specifically for the Xbox, CABLE SELECT will not work. Which connector you plug into the device determines its function: host controller master, or slave drive However, with a PC-compatible cable the host controller connector gets plugged into the hard drive and the MASTER (hard drive) connector into the host controller port on the motherboard. Therefore, you must set IDE-to-SATA adater to MASTER instead of trying to use Cable Select. Cable Select is defeated when you have to connect a standard IDE cable end-over-end. From wikipedia.com: -

Is the Startech adapter set to MASTER or Cable Select? If Cable Select, set it to MASTER. -
Ftp transfer fails when I transfer xbmc4xbox.
KaosEngineer replied to TheXboxMessiah's topic in General Xbox Discussion
Which FTP Client application are you using? You must login to the Xbox's FTP server with a cleartext username and password, not TLS or other encrypted login methods. If you are using FileZilla, create a Site Manager entry to login/connect to your Xbox instead of using the Quick Connect boxes. Set the Xbox entry's Encryption to Only use plain FTP (insecure). -
A WAG - Wild Ass Guess. Happened to me. UnleashX changes the Network Configuration used in the MS dashboard. Thus, you have to manually reset the DNS server to the correct IP address, 46.101.64.175, once you run the MS dashboard to test the connection to Xbox Live/Insignia.

The original Xbox memory unit is only 8MBs in size. Most softmods can be installed using it. The maximum size of USB flash drive that the Xbox can access is 4GBs. If the Xbox accepts it, the 256MB drive is large enough. The other two drives are too big.

No, your DNS server settings are causing the problem. Start the stock Xbox dashboard, go to the Network Settings menu. What are the Xbox's IP address, gateway address, and DNS server addresses? Which replacement dashboard are you running? What are the same set of IP addresses for it as requested above? From Insignia's Connect webpage, it states:

Kids have an uncanny way of easily breaking softmods. You might try Rocky5's Xbox Softmodding Tool which has better safeguards in place instead of the older easily broken softmods such as SID. If you are stuck on using SID, try powering on the console with the Eject button. SID 5.11 could be installed with dual-boot mode functionality. Power on the Xbox with: the Eject button boots into the installation menu, or the Power button boots into the replacement dashboard. If Eject doesn't start a menu to reinstall the softmod, SID 5.11 can be downloaded from the link in the tutorial at se7ensins.com: https://www.se7ensins.com/forums/threads/how-to-softmod-your-xbox-with-sid-5-11.556/ Which downloads the RAR archive file: Softmod.Installer.Deluxe.v5.11.Final.Xbox-Hq.rar

Xbox rev 1.6 still won’t power on after multiple fixes
KaosEngineer replied to Cytra's topic in Repair
From the information givent, the original hard drive is still locked with the password generated with the original HDKey that was on the motherboard, not the password generated with an all 1's HDKey. Error 06 means the Xbox cannot unlock the hard drive. Error 07 the hard drive cannot be accessed or has died. Is the new hard drive SATA or IDE? If SATA, Which IDE-to-SATA adapter are you using? Did you swap out the stock IDE cable for a new 80-wire 40-pin one? With the new SATA drive installed as the boot drive, did you set the IDE device selection jumper on the adapter to MASTER? -
1.6 boots to dash but dvd drive eject button flashes green

Have you tried swapping the DVD drive control/power cable (the 12 pin all yellow-insulated wire cable - brown insulation on some Xboxs) from a different console? -
Nightmare Softmod black screen upon loading games.

Does the OSSC show the type of signal that it is receiving - NTSC/PAL 480i, 480p etc.? -

You don't get High-Definition video output from a PAL Xbox. You must change it to NTSC output mode. -
Try Evoxdash's BIOS flashing operation. When you attempt the flashing operation, what does it say the Manufacturer and Device ID are?

XBMC-Emustation ??? Upload the XISO file to the E, F or G:\Game folder. Run the XISO to HDD Installer script to move the dot iso into subfolder of the Games directory and to create the attach app for the disc image. Reboot. The game should now be added to the Games menu to play it.

Laser module not dropping enough when ejecting, spindle too high.
KaosEngineer replied to Bowlsnapper's topic in Repair
If it is a Samsung DVD drrive, take a look at this old tear down tutorial from llamma.com - Samsung Xbox DVD Dissassembly (archive.org) In particular, make sure the plastic nub shown in picture 5 is in the slot on the bottom of the DVD tray. IIRC, this is part of the spindle raising / lowering mechanism. -

Over the production life of the Xbox, Microsoft installed many different DVD drive brands and models. Which one do you have? Edit I think I recognize it a Samsung drive but which model in particular is it? -
Some Team Xecuter X2 BIOSes (4981 and 4983 - KernelBasher v1.1. The v1.0 release supported a few more older X2 BIOS releases.) and Evox BIOSes (M7 and M8, not sure about M8plus). Addresses to the image must be built into the program. Each BIOS's size is a bit different so the addresses between different versions most likely change. From KernelBasher v1.1's README.TXT file: Instructions Launch kernelbasher and open the bios you wish to edit. ,M7 & M8 are supported in this release, Make Changes and then select SaveAs, choose and name and click save. Unless you open a recognised bios you wont be able to use any of the options. As always dont run the same bios through the program twice else you'll get unexpected results. IIRC, ind-bios has its own method in load a different image from the hard drive - no injection needed.

Take a look at the following PDF file included with the homebrew xbox-scene bios tool application KernelBasher v1.0: XBOX TEXT TUTORIAL.pdf Edit: diomtec.com closed the legacy xbins mirror website. https://legacy.downloads.diomtec.com/mnt/downloads_ams3_01/old_downloadshomebrew/xbins/PC Based Applications/bios tools/KernelBasher/_old/KernelBasher_1.0.rar Release 1.1 includes a Setup.exe file to install the application and its additional content: https://legacy.downloads.diomtec.com/mnt/downloads_ams3_01/old_downloadshomebrew/xbins/PC Based Applications/bios tools/KernelBasher/KernelBasherV1.1.zip However, there's a new site with the same content: https://xbxbx.ams1.ppn.prutzel.com/?dir=xbins_xbox_mirror/PC Based Applications/bios tools/KernelBasher _old subfolder for the v1.0 and v1.0b versions of KernelBasher and the one listed above has the v1.1 version. On my WIndows 10 PC, running the application complains about a missing DLL file: MFC71.dll. It can be downloaded from DLL‑files.com. Extract the content from the downloaded ZIP file then copy MFC71.DLL to KernelBasher v1.1's installation directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\KernelBasher\ This application only works for a limited set of modified Xbox BIOSes.
