(Rev 1.00) by Team
Xecuter
This
tutorial takes you on a step by step
journey through each and every process
to ensure that you are able to update
your bios successfully. We will teach
you how to flash via HTTP, Hard Drive
& Disc, how to burn a FlashBIOS
compliant CD and also DVD using Nero,
how to make a dummy file, and
finally show you the best troubleshooting
techniques.
The
document is a little long but trust
us when we say its quite easy so do
not be daunted by the amount of information.
We hope that beginners and experienced
users alike will find this tutorial
useful. Note to webmasters: We do
not watermark our images as everyone
should benefit without having to splash
crap all over the picture, however
if you do use this page we would be
grateful if you included a link and
credit to ourselves - thanks.
This
tutorial will be tackled in the following
order:
1.
Flash
Via HTTP
2. Flash
Via Hard Drive
3. Flash
Via Disc
4. How
To Create a Dummy File for a FlashBIOS
Compliant CD or DVD
5. How
To Create a FlashBIOS Compliant CD
6. How
To Create a FlashBIOS Compliant DVD
You
should be aware of the following points.
a.
You can update your bios via HTTP
/ Hard Drive OR Disc (All optional)
b. FlashBIOS will work on both
Xecuter 2.6 and Xecuter 3 Modchips
c. If you cannot navigate the
FlashBIOS menu - have only one controller
plugged in, unplug any DVD dongles
or memory cards, try to
use an original
MS controller.
d. FlashBIOS v3.03 may not
work on v1.6 in some cases (works
great on v1.6b) - at time of press
this is being investigated and we
recommend you use
v3.01 for v1.6 - this tutorial is
exactly the same for that version.
e. FlashBIOS is a utility to
update your modchip with any other
bios. You cannot play games or run
unsigned software with this bios.
If
you want to run
unsigned software you must download
a hacked bios like X3 Bios, X2 Bios
or Evox Bios. These are illegal and
we do
not provide direct
links. Read this page for info where
to find hacked bios's
http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/xbins.php
f. Make sure you know what
you are doing when unlocking your
hard drive. If you drive is unlocked
you will NOT be able to boot to the
MS dashboard. You will
get a service screen with an error
code - so BE CAREFUL.
Now
if you look at the pictures below
this is how FlashBIOS boots up if
you have installed your mod successfully
- we also show what happens if you
have messed things up. If you get
FRAG (Flashing Red And Green lights)
on your Xbox then you have a bad solder
joint on the LPC - check everything
again (this shows your D0 point is
correct as it is switching the Xbox
to the LPC bus successfully - however
by getting FRAG its showing that the
LPC bus cannot read the bios from
the mod). If you get a black video
screen then you most probably have
a new v1.6b Xbox (check to see if
the system RAM is made by Hynix) and
you have an older version of FlashBIOS.
You will need to send it back to your
installer to get it updated to FlashBIOS
v3.03 or see if you can get a friend
to do it for you. Remember FRAG =
Faulty Install, Black Screen = New
Xbox/Old Bios :)
