Made a disc CD-RW with bios.bin (1024) and a dummyfile. I start my xbox, the light turns orange, then green and the trey opens. I pop the CD-RW in and nothing happens. What to do?
(Burned the CD-RW as a normal Datacd. Do I have to make it bootable?)

You might try a DVD-/+RW and or make a xiso image of the files then burn that iso but I do not flash my bios this way so I could be wrong. I do know that when installing my evox on most xbox systems they don?t like cd-r/rw but like dvd+rw or dvd-rw, it depends on the type of drive you have.
