You need a program to flash the X Bit chip via USB and from what I have read windows XP is the latest OS you can use and an virtual machine running XP won't work.

Pull the Xbit and fit  an Open Xenium or a Aladdin or if the board is a version 1.0 to 1.4 flash the TSOP.

You can't flash a X-B.I.T. with the Xbox.  You have to use the correct version of the X-B.I.T. dev team's flashing program for your modchip with a USB cable connected to the external bank select switch panel/USB port PCB.  I believe it's either a 1.0 or a 1.5 version.  The apps don't work across both versions of the modchip.

I've never actually seen one of these modchips in real-life.  I've only read about them in old web pages archived by the Wayback Machine.
