Hey lads, I'm having a bit of an issue here. Recently softmodded my xbox and cloned a 2TB Hard Drive over. It has been working fine, I Ftp'd over some stuff and they run fine on the drive. So here's the problem. When I started my xbox today, my DVD Drive was working fine. Albeit I didn't stress test my Hitachi-LG, it immediately booted MechAssault which was in the tray. I've always had a sticky disk tray issue, so I keep a disk in tray so it will open. I Ftp'd over my stuff, moved to the new dashboard. The game also booted fine there. Then I booted DVD2Xbox, and this is where everything stopped working. I tried to rip the game and it failed, about 5 files in, said it had failed to copy over 100 files. I tried to see if maybe the App was just acting up. So I went back to my dashboard and tried to boot MechAssault. It went to a black screen, and then rebooted the dashboard. So... I kept going. I went back to Rocky's softmod dashboard, and when the disc tray initialized, it read MechAssault as the title in the softmod. Hit "Launch Disc", and... no dice, it boots back to the dashboard. A friend suggested maybe clearing the cache, so I did. After clearing the cache, I got the game to load, but first it went to a red patchy screen, and loaded 15 seconds after. I played a round of Grinder, but when I quit grinder... black screen, went back to dashboard. I can't stress this enough, it only stopped working the moment I ran DVD2Xbox. My fear is that I'll probably need to clean the laser, and if it doesn't work, it may mean I need to get a new drive. I couldn't unplug its power cable when I was softmodding [I was desperately careful], so I put it carefully on the table, It flopped over once, and I'm afraid that may be what has killed the drive. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

Hi. Recently bought an OG Xbox running CoinOps 8 premium/massive/ninja and UnleashX. I've FTP'd Time Splitters 2 to f:/games/Time Splitters 2 and refreshed 'Games' in Unleash X. Game is seen and works fine. What I can't figure out is how to add a shortcut pointing to the default.xbe file to make the game show up in the CoinOps front end under Console Systems/Xbox. I have the shortcut maker and I've read loads of tuts and forum posts but I'm completely confused now. Any help greatly appreciated. Cheers!

Ok here is the story. My brother just gave me his old xbox. It has been hard modded a while ago. It is a version 1.4 with a windbond TSOP. It is currently running Evolution x 3921. I have installed bios checker 5.0 and it says the bios is unknown. Also the MS dashboard can not be loaded. I would love to update this. What would be the order to do this. I read somewhere to run the krayzie one click soft mod installation, which would update the soft mod. Do I then just re-flash the tsop with the 256 EvoX M8+. I do have hexen 2017 disc. Thanks

Hi everybody, first time here in SO long. I've had a modded Xbox since 2003 which I just turned back on after I heard out about the clock capacitor problem. Mine was ok (I was able to remove it and clean up alright) but having it back on I've found the hard drive to be quite loud and maybe not running so great. I wanted to replace the hard drive but I'm not sure if my old Chameleon modchip throws a wrench into the tutorials I've been looking at. If possible the method of hotswapping the DVD drive with the new HDD and cloning the original drive seems easiest. Any suggestions before I start fumbling through this are very much appreciated! And I have all the stats on my current setup if needed. Thanks so much for the help!!

Ok so I feel like XPR would be fairly straight forward if I could get XPR Express to work in windows 10. In my windows XP VM, i got it to extract an XPR, but compiling no. I didnt mess around or read up too much on it though. Now, for XMV, I recently found this thread on xbox-hq with a promising program. However, I ran a virus total on the program and it came up as like 8/60 positive for viruses. I also ran it through an online sandbox, and what it did, didnt seem malicious. Does anyone out there have an easy method for creating XMV videos and extracting/compiling XPR files? I would really like to get everything working on windows 10. I hate VMs. XMV program i am talking about. The "ANY2XMV.7" file is linked close to the bottom in a mediafire link http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/postt27126.html Virustotal results https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/f148339ea9e4e59e15b58ab33fee3ef9842cb9813c7fc1598d104f19eab6bf45/detection Sandbox Analysis https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/sample/f148339ea9e4e59e15b58ab33fee3ef9842cb9813c7fc1598d104f19eab6bf45?environmentId=100

I came across this skin a little while ago and I really like the look of it, but I was hoping someone could help me with the video previews. I have them working, if you move over and click on the game preview, but in the thread below there is come code that enables you to view the previews by just pressing down on the dpad. However I have absolutely no idea where the provided code goes. Can anyone help me out please? https://www.xbmc4xbox.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3039&start=20

Hello everyone, I recently bought an Xbox and on the first day I turned it on and it booted up fine. Days later I am now trying to turn it on again and nothing. No lights, no sounds. I have another Xbox and the cable works fine. What do I need to do to fix this issue!

I was wondering if anybody else has been able to emulate either the Final Fantasy VII nes english patched rom for the nes, or the Secret of Evermore 2 player patched rom at all? I can get the Secret of evermore 2p rom to run but it only wants to play off of the first controller..
