If it's fitted properly in the XBOX there's no way it's ever gonna misalign. That chip oozes quality all over (except for the USB thingie). |

ermmm.... guys.... 30-40 bucks for a modchip?!
damn your getting ripped... you can get a mod chip as little as €7 euro's that have needed functionality. I have just finished setting up one with an Aladdin Advance, when you update the firmware bios with Xecutor 5x it functions as well as any 30-40 buck device... check these places www.gigabytesistemas.com www.modchip.it www.mrmodchips.co.uk www.modchip-store.co.uk www.techsick.com www.kanection.co.uk loads Last edited by Zetr0; 18 August 2008 at 02:28. |

infact now that I mention it, I was wondering if anyone in Spain could help me acquire
the following from www.gigabytesistemas.com 2 of LCD module for the XBox, as i cannot seem to get them to deliver to the UK and my XDream really needs one of these as does another project. If anyone can help me out I would be in your debt (obviously i would pay all fees in advance ) |

www.gigabytesistemas.com
€11 + shipping. Not a bad price. However still more than a softmod kit off ebay. www.modchip.it XENO FX (ALADDIN ADVANCE XT) for €6 + postage. Not bad at all! www.mrmodchips.co.uk Went out of business a long time ago! www.modchip-store.co.uk £11.99 + postage. More expensive than a softmod kit. www.techsick.com Duo X3 £5.99 + shipping. Nice price... shipping from Oz though? www.kanection.co.uk The cheapest they do is £19.99 + postage which is more than a softmod kit. So that is two (depending on the price of postage) that could come in under the price of a softmod kit. And they can only be used once. P.S. I reworked the URL's so they point directly to the chips! |

It is still 15 -25 US $, plus shipping and handling.
Yesterday I got myself wireless controller for x-box for 10 bucks and 5 games for another 10 bucks. (Need for Speed Underground, Blood Omen 2, Ghost Recon, Sega GT 2002 (with Jet Set Radio Future on it) and Prince of Persia: Warrior Within) With this purchase I got all PoP games. Also price of xBox is now 60 bucks. |

As far as I can tell it works good.
I wonder only what battery life time will be. (2 x AA batteries) If battery life is good I will get 2-3 more of those. |

Personally I like the room totally dark when watching movies. First thing to configure in XBMC is to switch the LED's off during playback!
My mate has fitted a HD LED to his... WTF for?? |

And that information is useful when on the X-box?? I hate mods which are all bling and no technological or mechanical advantage.

Definitely not.
Me too. One of my friends once had a cigarette lighter build in his PC (I'm not kidding) and the funny thing was, that it would shut down once the cigarette lighter was used Well it lasted for about 2 hours in his PC |

I have discovered both the joys and the dangers of having a modded XBOX. So far the joys are Outrun, Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Serious Sam and the dangers are mithering about undone housework, a flat ass and this:

You have no flatrate over there? Isn't it available or too expensive? I think here in germany nearly everybody has a flatrate for internet.

They describe it as flat rate with a cap which is marketing nonsense. What they're really selling is 500Kbps/2GB limit for $25 per month, 1Mbps/25GB limit for $35 per month, 7Mbps/60GB limit for $45 per month, 10Mbps/95GB limit for $55 per month or 18Mbps/95GB limit for $100 per month (all prices in Canadian dollars).
