ksim82 Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 Hi all!, Got my hands on an original XBOX guys. The console has a DuoX 3 chip V1.0-1.5. The dash its running atm is UnleashX 0.39.0222A. build 572 The issues i'm having atm is games keep freezing up. The dash is horrible, I would rather the console boot into something newer. I can FTP into the box no problem so I can alter files. Its been a long time since ive been tinkering with consoles. Id love some help. Can I use Rockys softmodding tool to update how I feel? I haven't got a burner to make a cd so can I just FTP everything over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 UnleashX 0.39.0222A Build 572 is the next to next latest build ever released to the Xbox scene. It doesn't have the FTP root directory listing problem that cropped up in the final release 0.39.0528A Build 584. If games are freezing up, the hard drive could be going out. You may try to clear the cache drives on the Xbox's X, Y and Z drives. Delete all the files and folders in all of them. Some configurations of UnleashX have an menu entry to empty (clear) the cache drives. If you don't like UnleashX, there are other replacement dashboards for the console. Evoxdash but it has no built-in File Explorer to manage/view the contents of the hard drive partitions and is older than UnleashX. XBMC4Xbox v3.5.3 or one of Rocky5's latest renditions of it: XBMC4Gamers or his latest masterpiece XBMC-Emustation Install them in the Applications folder and give each a try. I'd not use the softmod extras disc to to alter settings for a hard modded system (just my preference). However, Rocky5 has been updating the Xbox Softmodding Tool's Extras Disc to work with hard modded consoles too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it worth flashing the bios or making sure the chips firmware is on the latest to solve the game freezing problems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted November 17, 2019 Report Share Posted November 17, 2019 I'd try but I don't think that's the fix. What version of the modded BIOS are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksim82 Posted November 18, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 How can I find out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaosEngineer Posted November 18, 2019 Report Share Posted November 18, 2019 Look at the System Info page of UnleashX. Press the Y button on the controller from the main menu. To exit - press the B or Back button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
