Xbox Version Detection v0.1.5
*BETA*
source Xbox Scene
At this moment there are 2 main versions of Xbox.
The xbox v1.0 and the xbox v1.1 (also called v2.0 previously
, but we ask everyone to use the name v1.1 to unify
the version name and limit confusion).
IMPORTANT: These tests are just made by examining our
xbox consoles and using tips we received from our visitors.
There's NO guarantee these test are 100% correct. Also
keep in mind a new version might have been released
without we knowing it yet.
If there's a test that gives a wrong result on your
xbox , please contact us asap so we can update this
page. Thx.
1/ Check the "manufacturing date".
You can even do this when your xbox is stick packed
'cause there's a small whole at the back of the xbox
package where you can read the serial & manufacturing
date.
The manufacturing date (MFG. DATE) is in international
format : year-month-day
If the manufacturing date is prior August 2002 : you
have a v1.0
If the manufacturing date is August 2002 or later :
it can be a v1.0 OR v1.1 ... try another test.
2/ Check your Xbox bios/kernel version.
Goto the "settings" option in the XBOX menu
and select "Sytem Info". You will see lots
of legal text.
At the end of the txt you will see something like
K: 1.00.xxxx.01
D: 1.00.xxxx.01
If you don't see this you still have one of the first
xbox versions (3944 - USA only) , so it's a v1.0
If the xxxx = 4034 or 4036 or 4627 you have a v1.0
If the xxxx = 4817 or 4972 you have a v1.1
3/ Check if there's a FAN on the GPU
Open your xbox and remove the HDD & DVD-ROM. If
there's a fan on the gpu heatsink (next to cpu) you
have a v1.0 , if there's no fan you have a v1.1
4/ Check if there's a USB pcb
Open your xbox and check the USB chipset. If it's a
separate pcb you have a v1.0 , if it's on the xbox motherboard
you have a v1.1
5/ LPC points
If the LPC points are filled it can be a v1.0 OR v1.1
, if they are empty it's a v1.1
