Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum, and after recently moving I've finally gotten my collection out of storage and into my new place. I'm slowly going through boxes and taking inventory as I go, so I figured I'd post some photos of the current set, along with some plans I have for a few of the units. First one I pulled out was the one I started with is a 2002 model, rocking an old xecuter 2.6ce chip with unleashx. I've swapped it into a crystal case, added a random Nvidia gpu fan, green led case fan, and a swanky asus IDE cable I found. The disc drive is out so I can replace the belt, and the hdd is on my testbench for recovery as its failing after 9 years of uptime. I'm planning on modding this box further with an ssd, more ram, rainbow-puke, hmdi output, and potentially a small water loop for laughs (I doubt this would be practical) I do have 2 more og boxes, one of which being this motherboard's old case with the crystals old motherboard left over from the swap (stock), and another black unit I received from a family member that is apparently modded with evox, but I'm not sure if there is a chip, or what it would be. Will post more pics as the others are dug out of boxes, along with the 360's and such.

Hi everyone, I'm a long time Xbox user, and have enjoyed modding consoles since the early 2000's. I got started with an xecuter 2 chip, and things just snowballed from there. I've always been interested in running code on unintended hardware, and seeing what shenanigans i can get into in general. Currently my biggest project is resurrecting the aforementioned xecuter 2 box, as its whopping 75k hrs of run time has taken a toll (almost 9 years of runtime!!) I'm beginning my own journey of creating hardware mods for the xbox platform, primarily focused on enhancing cooling capabilities, and allowing my console to stream games from my home server rather than filling its own dedicated hdd again. Im also interested in making custom xbox motherboard pcb's, capable of running the xbox's os on new, and more powerful hardware. I'm exited to make new friends who share these interest, and like stated in the title, my username is usually SkippinMudkipz... But i guess midkipz is fine too lmfao

Hey there guys. I'm an og modder from the xecuter days and am looking to get back in the scene again. When I was in high school in 04, i started looking into xbox modding and discovered how awesome this console was. I was in the team-xecuter forums and a couple others I can't remember and posted frequently. I got my first xbox in december of 04 and installed an xecuter 3, an x3 control panel and a 250gb hard drive. The first time I saw the flashbios screen and flashed via http is literally one of the happiest memories of my life. I believe i used slayer's 2.4 installer. I put blue leds in the controller ports, an 80mm blue cathode ring under/around the jewel and blue leds in the clear controller dongles. It was a masterpiece and I was one stoked teenager. I modded other boxes in a similar fashion for friends and a few random people who became friends as a result. Sadly this xbox got stolen in 2008 and i never saw it again. This causes me pain to this day. I found an xecuter 3 box on ebay with a control panel and plan to make it just like my old one plus a few extra mods like the makemhz hdmi, extra ram and the 1.4ghz processor with the help of an interposer from n64freak, if he has any left. I know kekule is working on one as well as an xecuter 3 clone that i hope to help him finish and get into production over the next year or so. I've yet to meet the guy, so I may be getting ahead of myself, but I am hopeful! The xbox modding scene is one of my greatest pleasures and joys. Few things make me happier. If my plans come to fruition, I hope to become somebody in this community that everybody is familiar with and can rely on for anything. I also hope to gain some knowledge from other people here that will help me in my future endeavors. That would be pretty cool. SS Dave, you post everywhere and you are the man. N64freak, I fucking worship you and hope to be as skilled as you are pretty damn soon. Happy new year, guys.

Hi everyone. Recently I've been watching some ModernVintageGamer videos on YouTube and really wanted to get out of the drawer my old modchipped Xbox. It wasn t booting anymore because of a dvd reader failure(error 11 and 12) so I got a used xbox for spare parts off eBay,got the dvd player out of it and put it in my Xbox. The Xbox boots but it won't read even original disks. My question is how do I understand what modchip is installed? Can I run any sort of homebrew via USB and upgrade my HDD ? Thanks in advance.

Howdy folks. I just started in on HW modding. Ive soft modded things and built many computers but this is something else entirely. I have disassembled my 1.0 xbox and will solder the tsop. THe next step is to figure out how to flash the bios and enable the hdd. I've never done this before so wish me luck!!!
