So I was given an Xbox 1.0 from a friend that is chipped and has a 120gb HDD. Unfotunately the chip does not have support for HDD larger than 120gb and I am unable to flash the chip's BIOS (evox says it is not flash writeable).
I'm basically in a bind to find a guide on how to softmod this box and tsop it from a modchip because I don't know what type of chip it is and how to disable it. Pictures below:
Apologies for the very dusty MB, lol! As always any guidance will be highly appreciated.
Hi all,
I joined just over a year ago, and just realized I've never posted before. Thanks to this site and a few others, I TSOP-flashed a v1.0 XBOX and upgraded to a 2TB hard drive. Now I'm in the process of trying to streamline as many of my consoles as possible to use HDMI.
I got a job lot recently of some consoles - and all of them have buggered Thomson drives 🙃
I've tried adjusting pots, tried booting multiple burnt copies of HeXen and OGXBOXInstaller etc. but all seem to just hang on the Linux screen.
Any suggestions for what can be done? Can a HDD be setup outside the console? I have FATXplorer - and I know Eaton was looking at adding more support for the OG Xboxes however I think these are all still in beta.
Cheers guys
