Modding an X box

With the chip turned off its the same as it was before you chipped it. The multiple bios's is a huge feature because you can upgrade the bios without any fear of messing it up because even if you mess up one bank you can switch to the other and recover the messed up bank.

d@mn skippy. That's saved my butt a few times - flashed banks 1 and 2 but can always switch to bank 4 if i need to redo it. I strongly recommend the x2 pro.

Like I said no rom requests. We can't discuss where how easy or how to get illegal or pirated software here. The xbox bioses out there are technically illegal.

I apologize about the bios question. I read up some more on the xbox-scene.com and now realize that they are illegal. Modding a console is so much more complicated now then when I used to do psx's:) Thanks for the help.
