2.is it ok 4 me 2 use discjuggler 3.5,because i used it for dreamcast iso games at mode 1,block 2352,raw,overburn an it worked perfect but try nero 6 and it was hell?

 

3.i have slayers auto installer 2.6 iso on my pc and it sames 2 be set-up right like the default xbe etc.so do i just burn it 2 test it out an if success, update the softwares and add roms then burn over again?

i don't use rw's as much so i won't answer that but i can answer 2 and 3:

 

2: i personally just use dvd decrypter for all my burns and its freeware which can be found at www.dvdecrypter.com

 

3: the slayers disc i mostly use to setup new hdd's unless i got a x3 mod but don't rely on it for up to date apps as they rarely update the disc and its still using an old dash most n00bie would use (evox) which is well past due a upgrade.

 

i suggest using the disc for ftp access and add in any of the latest dashes and/or apps you like. and also note it doesn't come with emulators as the folder in the disc is empty at your option to add whatever you want.

Quick erase has always worked fine for me in the past.

i hope this dosn't break forum rules but if so-let me know an i will edit.

 

i have slayers iso auto installer on my pc and i think its ready 2 be burned 4 the xbox-but everytime i burn it it still dosn't work 4 my xbox-

alcohol 120% and discjuggler 3.5 with maxell 650 mb cd-rw media.

 

any1 with these softwares and used it on xbox images whats your settings?

 

my xbox version 1.0

 

stupid thompson dvd-rom drive.

I got a thompson and I always used memorex cd-rw x4 (kinda greenish box.) and they always worked fine for me. but if you have a dvd burner that would be better.

[sammaz]

its sometimes easiest to pop a cd-rom or dvd-rom or dvd-rw or dvd+rw drive into the xbox and replace the stock xbox drive just for new setups...so you can boot your cd-rw or any crappy media with no problems..

 

its always helped me...

 

these days i use a pioneer 16x dvd-rom slot loading drive with my xbox...its bad ass!

[1InuYasha]

well i only have maxell 4x 650mb,verbatim 4x 700mb, and hp invent 4x-12x 700mb all cd-rw.

 

also what about my software q's

so burn your slayers or whatever and then pull the pc burner out and use it in xbox to setup hdd...then you can remove it and put stock xbox drive back in...takes minuts

with alochol 120% I just burn the image, not changing any settings.

good tip, I never thought of that. but I was lucky to find working media on the first shot.

[Thraxen]

I always use Nero or DVD Decrypter to burn and have never had problems with either one. Also, burn the disc slow. I always use 2X. When you have your disc, make sure to try and boot it several times before giving up. For whatever reason, I've seen people report problems with getting Slayer's to boot. I just went through this with a friend about a week ago. We were setting him up with a larger HDD and trying to use Slayer's to format the disc. We would have to try 5-8 times sometimes just to get the disc to boot. I don't know why that happens since it boots burned games just fine, but it does.

whats the best dvd-rom to get for my xbox?and what version?

i'am buying it off of ebay.

i have a 1.0 xbox with a thompson dvd-rom drive an a x2 mod-chip installed.

i ask this ? cuz i think there might be dvd-rom versions out there.

 

my thompson stop reading my burn maxell audio cd-rw's and for it 2 work better with my original games and 4 halo2-failed 2 load map,i had to flip my xbox on its side and it worked better 4 a while then the next best method was 2 take the dvd-rom drive out and flip it on its side or upside down.it helps out alot.laughing

 

i'am asking this instead of posting it somewhere else or so on-

both my x2.6 banks are in use with a 1mb flash but i didn't wanted it 2 be like that cuz i didn't know what iwas doing anyway is there some way i can update my bios or do i need a programmer/

[1InuYasha]

both banks are flashed.i use the resize bio thing at teamxecuter.com and made a 1mb total bio an then flashed it but what i was asking can i update my old bios or do i need 2 buy a programmer ? cuz i can't go 2 the default bios screen an flash over.

 

and 1 more thing-i went on teamxecuter website and read up on the bios feature an so on an notice theres things that can be enable/disable an other stuff but i don't see any of those features.

[Prican25]

first off, theres no need for you to keep making new posts for lil changes, just update the last one you did unless someone replied.

 

now as for dvd-rom's, most ppl believe samsung ones are best but to me i rather have phillips as it can read more and if you use +r media, you'll want to stay away from samsung dvd-rom's.

 

as for the latest x2 bios, all its extra options are in a ini that you place in either E:\ or F:\ when you flash the bios. theres also tool apps that can make a ini to what you want, look at x-s for those.

 

also, i just wanna say that you don't have to make the bios 1mb as 512k is perfect for 1 bank and that allows you to use a different bios. i highly suggest using the latest x2 bios in bank 1 and have the latest flashbios in bank 2 since it flashes to bank one only and it comes in handy incase anything goes wrong so you won't need a programmer.
