what bios do you currently have on it now? the cromwell or the evox? you should be able to get the evox pretty easy, was able to dag lost the site that had the most recent update, but i figure as long as you have recent version just go thru the process of burning the new EVOX bios to a cd-rw and load should be good there

werd, good job on getting the chip working
as far as bios
go to irc.. EFNET servers.. and join #xbins.. they have bioses.. as far as making the cd.
HOW TO MAKE THE BIOS CD
#1 - download the 4977 xecutor bios off the ftp site listed above and extract the files
#2 - off the same ftp site in the dir /XBOX/bios/xecuter/flashbios_cromwell get the file "xecuter_flashbios.zip" and extract the dummyfile.exe
#3 - get xecutor2 bios maker (x2bm) off this site (w00t for hosting it) and extract
#4 - load up x2bm and click import. you want the X2_4977.bin file in all four banks.
#5 - click save and save it as bios.bin; im fairly sure it automatically makes it a bin, so dont put a ".bin" in the file name.
#6 - have the dummyfile.exe make you a 100mb file and put it somewhere you can remember (desktop is fine )
#7a - if you have windows xp just burn the 2 files using the integrated cd burning software. make sure you close the session or whatever.
#7b - if you dont have winxp (lamer), use Nero. have it burn a data cd, no multisession, disc at once and finalize. i recommend burning at 4x
that was from x-s forums.. hopefully that helps

I still get the blue LED's, but I booted up and it asked for a BIOS disk.
I burned a bios disk and it installed on the xbox.
when I load up the xbox with the modchip switch enabled i get the word x-ecuter under the xbox logo.
but the LED's are still blue.
Do i just ignore them, or is something wrong?
And how can I test if the chip is working. I haven't got any backed up or imported games just yet.

if you enable the modchip, the blue led is on but the green led won't be. If you disable the modchip you'll see a green led and 2 blue led. Every thing seems to be working find for you. All you need to do now is install the Dashboard.

Oh, I see.
But the green LED is only supposed to come one for a second right? cos thats all it does for me.
And by dashboard, you mean the evolutionx yes?
do I need that to play backups? or is it just an extra to play with the settings?
BTW I managed to finally get the thing to work by using foil. I found a guide for using it with that and it worked.

Hey sswats
Where did you find the tutorial on using foil?
BillyJ I'd bet you need to set your IP info to be similar.
Does anoyone know the boot order of a x2.2 lite w/ 4977 bios... i made a mistake on my hard drive in my ini file, and now i can't seem to boot any cd's.

Where is the d0 Point? is that the point that corresponds with the "single contact" on the mod chip...?
or is it on the mod chip?
also:
what do you mean by scrap/scratch? If what i think your talking about is the point explained above... what did you use?

well i got mine to work now... basically the part where the green lite is.. just make sure its lined up... do it by eye.. look below... while holding it down... and see if its lined up... then look back through the holes... see if its lined up.. then screw it down... not too tight, but tight... so it wont' move... then press down on the green light part... so that its pressed. and screw down a bit more... or test to see if it worked... i kept doing this method trial and error.. and it finally worked..
only problem is... i guess my chip was bad or something. cuz it started smoking... but everything worked.. i was loading up the thing... then i turned it off... took it out
and it gives me a black screen... everything works.. but i got a black screen...
i'm guessing either my xbox is dead... or... maybe the chip deleted my xbox bios...? i dunno... but hopefully its not a serious thing.. i pray it isn't.. cuz i don't wanna pay another 200 bucks.

well spine with my x2.2lite plus chip i mounted to the board turned mod chip off so u should get 2 blue leds and 1 green, if the green doesn't come on just slightly nudge the chip to the right that is tap the top right corner of the chip it should eventually line up the d0 point and the green led will come on. mine works fine no probs other than having to reset my live ip and dns settings whenever i go back to regular dashboard?? cant figure it out!! anyone know let me know??

well make sure not to overtighten the screw!!! remove it and make sure the contact points are extended!! they have springs in them so if u press one inward u will see it move inward. but my best experience to get mine to work is to have it on the board and slightly move itto the right, move it slow though.

yes more or less while the chip is off the board otherwise if they are compressed inward you wont be able to make contact on the needed points.

A few questions:
I recently received the Xecuter Plus Lite 2.2, and I'm having the same green light problem, but I have a couple questions about the proposed solutions:
1) What is the d0 point? I can see absolutely no labels that indicate anything as being "d0". Are there diagrams available or something?
2) What does it mean to "scrap(e)?" this point?
3) Is it true that the green light only appears when the mod chip is disabled, and is it supposed to appear permanently or only for a brief second? I'm able to get it on for a second when my mod chip is disabled, but no more.
4) Since the online instructions I read were unclear, what am I supposed to see if I boot the Xbox properly with my mod chip enabled? Is it supposed to go to the usual dashboard, or some other screen?
Thanks!

At least your having better luck then me. You need a diagram really to find the d0 point. As far as when you boot up your supposed to see xecuter under the xbox logo.

Quote: "1) What is the d0 point?"
its on diagrams you find on the net
eg
Quote: 2) What does it mean to "scrap(e)?" this point?
exactly what it says. scrape the point to get a better contact. i used a very sharp pen knife and put it in the d0 point and rotated it.
Quote: "3) Is it true that the green light only appears when the mod chip is disabled, and is it supposed to appear permanently or only for a brief second? I'm able to get it on for a second when my mod chip is disabled, but no more. "
yes, it only appears for a bit when its disabled. So yours should be working.
Quote: "4) Since the online instructions I read were unclear, what am I supposed to see if I boot the Xbox properly with my mod chip enabled? Is it supposed to go to the usual dashboard, or some other screen? "
you'll see normal Xbox logo, but instead of microsoftt written underneat, "Xecuter" is written.
Then it will ask for a bios CD
I had the same problem as you guys so i the followingused the foil method and chip has been working perfectly.

Well i figured out my problem. My chip is screwed up or something. It wont work because the wrong pin touches and d0 point and i cant get the right pin to touch it.
