Hi if you have the right bios you need to burn it to a disk..with a dummy file of about 5ooMB, so the drive can read it..
Make sure you have the right bios for your xbox..only use a 1.6 bios with a 1.6...
For a v1.0 to 1.5 use bank1 for a 1.6 use bank2

You can supposedly flash the chip across your personal network..
The bios is illegal so there is nowhere hosting it on the net..If you can set up your pc to connect to the xbox all well and good, there is an option on the flashbios screen.. trouble is it takes a fair bit of practice to connect an xbox to a pc..
I'll explain how to burn a bios disk..
First unpack your bios.. It's called Bios.bin.. remane it bios
Make a dummy file...any old file will do about 400-500MB and rename it dummy
open nero burning rom...drag and drop these two files into the compilation window.. Nero will rename them...bios.bin and dummy.bin
next screen will be settings.. turn multisession off..and uncheck the joliet box..
Burn..
run xbox to flashbios screen and select flash from disk..
drive will open and you will be asked to insert bios disk..
Put the disk in you have just burned and close the drive
The drive will hunt for a few moments (will say waiting for drive)and with a bit of luck will find a valid update..
Let everything finish..the xbox will switch off..
When it's all finished turn on and remove the bios disk..put your autoinstaller disk in the drive and reboot... Hey presto!!
Follow the menu's to install all your new software :)
If you just install evox to C:\ you can connect the pc to the xbox and backup your E:\ tdata and Udata folders..they contain all your saves and music playlists..

No you need to use the hardcore burning rom part :(.. I know that's bad news but it's the only way to get a working one ..Express adds the joliet tags and kills it..
I'll just have an experiment with express on a cd-rw.. I'll get back to you..
edit.. I just burned one with nero express on a cd-r and no problem..nero renames the files .bin so no tails needed and burn as a data disk at 12X..no multisession..don't bother with verify..
Flashed bank 1-2 on my x3 no problem..working..tested..
Jobs good..

Sorted..have fun, when the bios is in reboot and put your slayers or whatever autoinstaller in or it will frag..That's normal.. :)

The bios runs the chip, and allows you to run burned disks and unsigned code..you need all the rest of the goodies too.. Slayers or xboxhackers installers..they give you dashboards, region free dvd players..copying programs and lots more..even an app that will rip audio cd's straight to mp3's
Try some torrent sites for xbox autoinstallers..usually about 600MB
frags=falshing red+green..normally a fault condition..
Lots of n00bs here come on with "I flashed my bios and now its flashing and won't boot...heeeeelp!!"..run an autoinstaller, or until you find one just turn the chip off.. It's because the bios looks for a dashboard..but not the original one..
Learn Lots....Ask Jan :)
Not bad for a girl eh?

Why are you using evo tool?..
Your bios disk should contain 2 files
BIOS.BIN...512k
DUMMY.BIN...400MB
Make sure that the flash enable is on..middle switch to the right..
Theres a bit of an art to this..when you crack it, it's easy..
call the disk bios.. I can't post screenshots..I'll put up a nero setup file for dvd burns..

hey jan or toocool! or anyone that can help! if i put this bios onto another xbox hard drive, i have a softmodded xbox that works fine, i can ftp into it and such, my question is, if i put this bios onto c drive, then put this mod chip into the softmodded xbox, would this let me flash it thru the hard drive option? then take it out of softmodded xbox, and put it into other xbox and would this work? or is this to confusing?

A v1.6, Xbox always uses a different Bios than a v.1.0 - 1.5, so if you are trying to use that same bios on a v1.5 thats your issue. I looked at my AID v3.0 disc, it did reveal two sets of bioses, X3.3294 and a X3.3294.v16plus. You need to use the X3.3294 on your v1.5. If you have a Slayer's or AID v3.0 disc you should find the bios on it. I can email the bios to you if need be, just send me a PM with your email address.
