Gray1 Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 OK. I just put together a Ver 1.2 XBOX with IND 5004 bios. During the bios boot I get these thin vertical red lines. I have always used a EVOX 8m bios and have never had this problem before. I'm wondering if this is normal with this bios? It looks fine when fully booted into Unleash X. I don't have another IDE to SATA adaptor. So it's either in the Bios itself or the adaptor. I only have one of the cheap chinese adaptors here. Anybody got any thoughts?

SS_Dave Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 I have read somewhere the one of the 2 IND bios's versions had some problems with animation so I would try the IND 5003 version and see what happens. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray1 Posted April 30, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2020 I wanted to post this because someone in the future may run into the same problem. In my first post I failed to mention that I have just bought a new Samsung N5300 TV. I put this V 1.2 XBOX together with a large HD. When booting the IND-5004 bios I got these weird looking vertical red lines in the boot process. Once it was finished booting, it looks great. I found out it acted this way no matter which bios I tried using. I thought it had to be in the IDE to SATA adaptor. I tried different adaptors, the cheap Chinese and the Startech. No difference but the Startech ran slower, but the boot looked the same. I tried switching IDE cables but there was no differences in the boot. At the same time the XBOX looked fine on my 48” Vizio TV and a cheap Element TV from Walmart. I tried versions 1.0, 1.1, and 1.2. , there was no difference. But when I tried an XBOX V 1.4, everything looked fine. I went and got another V 1.4 and confirmed the version of the XBOX made the difference. I don’t know why. I know they use different video chips and the 1.4 uses a Focus chip. Maybe that is the difference I don’t know. But anyway I got a V 1.4 working fine on the Samsung. I have way too much time in this.
