hello, i just bought a spider v1.1 modchip. i installed the chip, got a copy of flash xp, bought a crossover cable.when i try to connect pc to xbox im getting an error message saying " connect method failed,no connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"the xbox is refusing connection i think. is this because i havnt flashed the chip. can someone tell me what is the best bios to flash to my spider chip with,where to find it,and how to do it?i had a evolution x .RAR file and i burned this to a dvd and put the disk into the xbox but the xbox isnt recognising it.is this the correct procedure or can somebody tell me what im doing wrong. sorry about all the question but i have read loads and my head is just spinning now, im nearly ready to give up.
thanks in advance

thanks for the reply, i have xbox version 1.2 when i turn on the xbox it just boots as normal, i dont get any spider boot screen. the blue light on the spider chip is on so im assuming that i have it installed properly. i have evox m8 plus .RAR file saved on my PC, can you tell me where to get a suitable evox dashboard so i can save that too and have it ready for when i need it.
any idea where i go from here?

so you flashed the chip? when you boot the box is there a upside down pink triagle with the word evox in it, in the top left corner? i would recommend a different bios....the m8 bios is for 1.6 xbox's
i need to know if the chip has been flashed with a hacked bios

well if the chip has not been flashed with a hacked bios, the xbox should load to the Flashbios screen...sounds like the chip is not installed correctly or you have the chip turned off...you need to install the chip and get the xbox to boot the the Flashbios screen...i can't help you until you get the xbox to boot this way.

no i dont...ive just been looking at spiderchip.com and it says that i should have a animated menu, i dont have that, so like you said i must have installed it wrong but i dont see how because it was only one wire.
any ideas, its v1.1 spiderchip

i no nothing about spiderchips...the only chips i like are the xecuter's and xenium's...personally i don't think you have the chip installed right...if you did the first time you boot the box with the chip enabled it should boot straight to the FlashBios screen...i would continue to check your install until your xbox boots to the FlashBios screen...all chips come preflashed with FlashBios, and if you can't get your xbox to boot to FlashBios it is almost certainly an install problem.

Dude, the reason why you're xbox doesn't recognize the disc is because you burned a .RAR file on the disc!! You don't burn the RAR. You extract the files to a folder, and make an xISO of the folder.
If you do that, I bet it'll read ;)

You'll have to put the bios in it's own folder and make an xiso out of it. Then, use Nero, CLOSE THE STARTUP WIZARD, go to File>Open, and go to where your xiso is. if you don't see it, go to the dropdown and select "All Files" or "iso,bin, cue" Then burn onto a cd-rw or dvdr.

i would use m8plus...you need to extract the bin file out of the .rar file you have...you need to rename the bios to bios.bin you then need to create a 100mb dummy file...use neros to burn these to disk...turn on xbox choose flash from disc....put your disc in and let and watch your chip get flashed...after that you will need to create a evox boot disk...so you can ftp into your box
