Hi all,
First, I wanted to thank everyone that has helped me get my xbox modded correctly. Things are working well and I am making archival copies of my purchased games ?º
I am about to close up my Xbox, but I thought I would go ahead and upgrade the hard drive to a 120GB hard drive first. I have the Slayer evox auto-installer 2.5 so I don¡¦t think I will have any problems there.
When I purchased my Mod chip, I selected the Matrix chip and I also purchased the Chameleon add on chip. However, I did not install the Chameleon chip because it required me to scratch a couple of the trace ways on the Matrix chip prior to installing the Chameleon chip. Before I did that, I decided that I would get the Matrix chip working by itself. That way if I couldn¡¦t get it working correctly, I would know it wasn¡¦t because of what I did to the Matrix chip. Now that I have the Matrix chip working, I need to decide whether or not to install the Chameleon add-on chip. To be honest, I really don¡¦t understand what the benefits of having the Chameleon chip. I know that the Matrix chip is only a 256K chip and by adding the Chameleon add-on chip extends that to a 1MB of memory. But what does having 1MB of memory do for me over 256KB?
One final question about my Matrix chip, does anyone have a recommendation of the best settings for the dip switches on the Matrix chip? Apparently the dip switches control the ability to flash the Matrix chip with a new version of the BIOS. I just want to make sure I have it set correctly prior to close up the Xbox.
Again, thanks for all your help.
Greg
