craybox Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 hello xboxers does the Xecuter 1 support booting straight to evox or do i have to use the cd everytime. I have upgraded to slayers 2.5 install if this makes any difference, and i cannot be bothered ( I know beggars cant be choosers ) to network my xbox again, so if the answer is yes can i do it via the apps ? TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyD Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 Not sure about xecuter 1 but having slayer wont make any difference in either way. It's merely a bunch of standalone things combined into one iso. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimreaper Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 No it won't be a ISO. but i will still be able to backup the games rite? thnx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted November 13, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 13, 2003 but i will still be able to backup the games rite? thnx. yeah, should be fine. there are programs to extract .iso files to an xbox. there are programs to take a directory on an xbox and turn it into a .iso.

dt26 Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 how much space on your harddrive does backing up a game onto your xbox take (on average)? Also which is the best UK based websites to get a premodded xbox from? (apart from premodded.com where I'll probably get it from anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted November 13, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 13, 2003 averaging my 60 games out, it's about 2.2gb per game. but that's an average... i think you can update with slayers 2.5, but i haven't used it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(apart from premodded.com where I'll probably get it from anyway) if you DONT format. If you JUST update EVOX (which i wouldnt. the verison on slayers 2.5 is bugged to hell), id just update your bios and/or Apps -if you only update the apps you should be fine, depeneding on which app u use to backup games. i use pxHDD loader myself. its nub but works. only problem ive had is it doesnt actually Name the folders it makes for the games, which is a pain if you have to back them up to pc :\ -id stick to Evox 3752 i believe it is.. Its older, but isnt so buggy. 3921 (i think it is) has stalled alot of my apps. -stick to 2.3 XBPM, 2.4 *sometimes freezes when you load it. i didnt know this forum allowed modded talk.. :yes: :ike: :geek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_XtaC_ Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 has anyone used the aladdin chip?. i want to get an xbox and there is a shop that is around the corner from my house that charges $369 canadian for the xbox and the aladdin chip with the cromwell flash. just curious if anyone has had this chip and whether it is any good or not. i have read all 36 pages of this post, i know that alot of people like the xecuter chip, but this is the only guy i can find that is near me. the next closest one i know of is an hour away. so, basically, am i going to have any problems with this chip? it is the soldered on version and he said something about pin headers or something like that so that if i wanted to change the chip after i bought it i wouldn't have to solder anything off or on again. thanks for your help X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grimreaper Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 If you JUST update EVOX (which i wouldnt. the verison on slayers 2.5 is bugged to hell) WHA!!!!!!!! dam, isnt 2.5 supposed to be less bugy since its the latest version???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dissolved Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 WHA!!!!!!!! dam, isnt 2.5 supposed to be less bugy since its the latest version???? im just talking about evox, not slayers.. the lastest evox isnt 100% stable from what ive tested/read. just a warning :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiGhTfast Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 you should spend 10 minutes and learn how do everything yourself, this slayers stuff is crap tbh so many newbies relying on it and missing out on loads of good stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted November 15, 2003 Veteran Share Posted November 15, 2003 do you have to do anything special to have emulators on your xbox? can you use the same roms that you use on your pc? i'm pretty much just interested in nes right now. but i'll prolly put genesis and snes on there too.

Also which mod should I go for.. yeah, philips will read light colored cdr's once the pot tweat is done, but I did the best thing traded the drive for a samsung, and it reads everything I toss at it nativily Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSRules Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 hmm I still have 6 days left..I guess I could go trade it in until I end up with a samsung drive :laugh: and since I only user verbatim cd-r's I might do the pot tweak..but if it phillips can read cd-rw I might as well leave it alone..and pray it'll read verbatim dvd+r..

Briandl79 Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 Don't do the pot tweak unless you know what you are doing, countless people have screwed up their DVD drives by doing the pot tweak. Also I have two Philips drives and both read my DVD+R fine, but not DVD+RW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSRules Posted November 16, 2003 Share Posted November 16, 2003 ah..alright then. which brand of dvd+r do you use? I've had best results with verbatim on everything so I've stuck with them for a long time.. and will the same go for cd-rw's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had best results with verbatim on everything so I've stuck with them for a long time.. and will the same go for cd-rw's I've used: Verbatim TDK Imation However let me say that you'll want to burn them all at 2.4 X otherwise they'll likely work sporadically. Also let me say that in retrospect I would not have gotten the Verbatim, many of them are CMC media which are not all that popular, some may also be Ritek G03 but for just a few dollars more you can get Riteks for sure. I can't say I've ever used them on my Philips but I'm quite sure they would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
