moreno9 Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) Hello. 1- I installed for the first time an Alladin xt Plus2. When I just plug my Xbox with the Power cable the red light on the chip immediately turns on. Shouldn't turn only when I turn on the Xbox? I am afraid I did smth wrong. The chip works fine anyways. It appears the EVOX logo. 2- Is it normal xbox heats up more than the usual before I installed the chip? The heat sink kinda burns after the chip installation. I changed for a new 250gb hdd. Is that the reason for the heat problem? Should I change the cable for an 80 pins to don't heat up a lot? Thanks.

SS_Dave Posted March 25, 2021 Report Share Posted March 25, 2021 It is fitted in a version 1.6 2 options 1st is cut the 5 volt supply pin from the LPC pin header. 2nd is to cut the led trace on the mod chip and reroute to the 3 volt supply like the black line. This way the led is switched and it can still be used in the 1.0 -1.4. I also link the BT to pin2 and not to the power button as shown in this pic Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Can you please take a look at my second question? I am kinda concern. Maybe it is some flux on the motherboard that hasn't been properly cleaned up?

The heat sinks can get to hot to touch and defiantly to hot to hold your hand on it especially when the Xbox is running with it disassembled as the hard drive and DVD drive holders form part of the thermal ducting. also the temperature reading in Evolution X dash can/will read 7 to 8 degrees Celsius hotter on a version 1.6 The 80 way IDE cable can help with data transfer when using large hard drives (160gb and up) Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.
