RaQ Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 Hello, I'm getting an XBOX very soon after my PS2 sells on ebay and I need some help. First off, I'm going to get an X-Ecuter 2.1 LITE - 10GIG XBOX for $280.. See Here! Now, When I recieve it and boot up will it be a normal dashboard, etc.. just like a regular xbox is? How do most people launch programs such as XBMP and other ones on the XBOX, is it via a modified dashboard? Such as this MXM I keep hearing about! How would I get a program such as XBMP or MXM to my XBOX? I will have it hooked into my HUB.. What kind of programs are there out there for the XBOX, and can they all be launched from a dashboard such as MXM? - Sub question, What exactly (I have a rough idea) is XBMP and what can it do? I believe those are enough of questions to start me off, please do not get too confusing this whole XBOX Scene gets very.. very.. confusing for me. I get fustrated.. :( One more thing, If you know of any good places to get premodded XBOX at please specify! Thanks so much! *If anyone would be so kind to hit me up on MSN, rpm @ alexkelm.com - spam protected, remove space-, I'd very very much appreciate it! This means pro modders, such as Dazzla, hint hint check ur PM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted July 4, 2003 Veteran Share Posted July 4, 2003 which dashboard it boots up with depends on which bios it ships with... if they ship with a illegal bios, it is possible to boot up with any dash. if it ships with cromwell bios, you need to flash the bios first, then install any dash. you'll want bigger than 10gb though, i barely have any of my 137gb left...

spIdeZ Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 Screw the mod! Just wait and soon the new hack will let you run unsigned code besides Linux without soldering! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
velocity3k Posted July 4, 2003 Share Posted July 4, 2003 Evolution-X is what i use, it is pretty basic in looks but has all the functionality that you will need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaQ Posted July 4, 2003 Author Share Posted July 4, 2003 Decided pretty much on.. X-Ecuter 2.2 Pro - 120GIG XBOX I am going to sell my PC, so please give me straight and foward answers please! What resolution does the XBOX run at? I've heard about xbox-linux, can I install it and launch it from the dashboard? - Meaning still play games with modchip off, but modchip on boot to dashboard and select XBOX-LINUX, etc. How do people launch the programs, such as media player.. etc? - It's my understanding, via a modified dashboard which if (which the one I am getting is) the xbox is shipped with cromwell bios I must first flash the bios then install the dashboard. Is it possibile to "RIP" rented games to the Hard Disk? - If I rented a game and accidently fumbled with the controller of course.. Is it possibile to buy an XBOX Optical Mouse and Keyboard? - Is wireless type available? Thank you all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaQ Posted July 5, 2003 Author Share Posted July 5, 2003 It seems as if I cannot edit that, Upon wearing this positioner I have to wear after braces my dad has aggreeded to give me the additonal money needed for the 120GB HD w/o having to sell my PC. No one needs to answer the 1st or 2nd question! Addiontal Questions, How do I reflash my BIOS? - Then, How do I install my Dashboard? Try and provide the easiest way, i've heard of EvoX using "Shaylers???? Neowinian??" Install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briandl79 Posted July 5, 2003 Share Posted July 5, 2003 I can't say I know the resolution off hand, but I've heard it's 640X480. You can however run Linux at 800x600, possibly higher. You can install Linux and have it on your dashboard, you just need to edit your ini file. Yes you must flash the BIOS and install a dashboard (Evolution X or MXM or others). Yes you could make backup copies of the games you own, they can be on the hard drive. Yes you can get an optical mouse, and keyboard, or a wireless optical mouse and keyboard. You'll need some adapters however. This would only be useful in Linux. I can certainly get you a premod system much cheaper than at the link you've posted. Send me a PM or email if you are interested. Any other questions just ask. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
