I'm new to the game but i picked it up quick. I have a x.bit 1.5 chip installed with evo dash and and x2 bios. i also put an old 45g hhd from a computer laying around the house. i used slayer to install everything so everything is running great. but i plan on buying a larger hard drive and i want the most update bios. should i stick with x2 and if so is there a more recent version i shoud flash.

I believe there is an X3... I'm not sure though... my Box is softmodded so I never had to mess with flashing mod chips.

x2 has been stable enough....basicly,if you're not having any problems with the bios that you have...don't change it.

I beleave X³ Firmwares are only for X³ Modchips'. So Upgradeing to a X³ ain't going to be of much use to you. I personaly still use Xecuter² 4981 (4981.67), and that has always worked for me. I prefer this Firmware for it's ease in it's modifacation. Like banning the Fubber Animation, changeing the Color of the 'X'? Screen, Not to mention beeing able to change the LBA48 (Large +137Gib HDD), Settings aswell. Things you can not do with the latter versions of the X² Firmwares as Team Xecuter have since started encoding all there Firmware images, makeing such variations more difficult, or indeed no longer possible.

As far as bennifits to useing an up-to-date Firmware Image are what exactly?? For myself I can not think of any, then again I have a XBOX? v1.2. So I wouldn't have much need of a newer Firmware image.

However you BETTER KNOW WHICH XBOX? VERSION YOU HAVE BEFORE YOU START FUXX'ING 'ROUND WITH FIRMWARES!!! A Firmware for a V1.0~1.5 XBOX? WILL NOT WORK ON A v1.6a/b! So you may not be able to use a X² 4981 on your XBOX?.

If I wanted to keep the XBOX? up-to-date, I'd locate a newer XBOX Live!? Game Disc, and though a Program called BoxPlorer lauch another Program from the Game Disc (D:\), called UpdateDash.xbe. So that I was running the most current version of the XBOX? M$Dash. Otherwise I just keep my XBMC up-to-date as my current sub-dash (next to Avalaunch),. Which I'll plan to phase out once the DVD Playback functions (with Menus!!), get irond out in the next few releases...
