Whatever chip you choose wouldn't do you any good if you don't know how/what to take advantage of it. For a dumbass like you, the simplest chip will do just as good as the most advanced one, useless to you.

Crystal Limited Edition (v1.6)
Maxtor 250G HD
EvoX m8_16 Xecuter 3
EvoX 3935

What a lousy attitude. The guy is asking for advive and he gets a lowlife like you dissing him for it. So what, you invented modchips now and wrote the book on how to use them?

I got my X3 with Xapt3r yesterday and had it installed in about 40 mins, including all soldering (4 wires for the Xecuter front panel). Got the Bios upgrade (2914), burned to dvd and installed a dream. Just going to install Avalaunch now.

The only place to get BIOSes, XBINS.

Use MIRC to connect to Efnet, join #xbins, request an ftp site/username/password, use an ftp client to connect to the site given to you on #xbins using the username/password/port also given to you. Now get your BIOS.

*Update*

Just checked, 214 definitely on there.

Xenium Ice all the way!!! Feature wise you can't beat it!! Just my opinion....The Xenium,X3, and the SmartXX are the best chips out right now. I think TeamXodus has a new chip(Xenium Spice)I believe for the 1.6 that is Solderless. I don't have a 1.6 and would never want one. I have been hearing nothing but negative things from the 1.6's.

What mod did you get? If it was the X3 and you have the front panel with the dip switches, which you should have, turn the first two switches on (top two to the right) then reboot and it should boot to the alternative dash. If you installed avalaunch then this should boot by default.

The easiest way to do this is to firstly install Slayer's autoinstall disc. This will install the Evox dash as well as most of the other apps and utilities you will need.

Then, set your xbox up for connection to your pc via ethernet. Check xbox scene for instructions on how to do this.

When you have done this, use an irc client to connect to efnet and then join #xbins. You can then ftp into their site and dl the latest avalaunch which you will then ftp into the root c:\ directory of your xbox.

This is as far as I can go here without actually taking you by the hand and physically do it for you. Check out the newbie forums on xbox scene for full instructions on how to do all of this.

You NEED to flash the BIOS first. Again, use an IRC (like MIRC) to connect to EFnet, then in "favourites" create a new channel called "#xbins". Join this channel. Then type "/msg xbins !list" with no quotes. A new box will appear towards the top of the screen called "xbins". Click on this and you will get the ftp details you need to connect to the xbins ftp site.

Fire up an ftp client, such as cuteftp, enter the details given to you by xbins and connet to their distribution site. Under \xbox\bios\xecuter select x3 and download BIOS v 3029 (if you have a v1.6 xbox make sure it is this version of 3029 you dl).

Now burn this onto a cdrw (not a CDR) or dvd-r and using Nero. To do this, start Nero then choose \recorder\burn image\all files and select the bin file. Burn this using the default settings.

Load this disc into your xbox and it will give you choices for installing the bios. Choose the one that suits you, but remember to choose to back up the original M$ bios.

When you have done this, reboot your xbox and it will boot to the X3 3029 BIOS screen.

When you have done this successfully, then run the Slayer disc.
