Modding an X box

 ;D Thanks for all the input.  I have been reading the xbox-scene.com forums and am thinking about getting a chameleon mod chip, have any of you used them?  Is it hard to flash the bios?  I was also looking at the Evox dashboard, have any of you used this?  How easy is it to download a bios?  Thanks again for all of the help.

 ;)Oh and by the way, I am excellent at soldering, mastered my skills in my father television repair shop and putting mod chips in psx's for friends.  I just would like somthing that would be easy to remove.

chamealun isn't the most popular of chips

I would stick to xecutor.  


Evox is great.  Very easy to use setup and install.  

No rom requests!

metal_slug_az:
Not interested in any roms or emulation on the box.  Just playing backups of my games so that my son and I don't scratch up my disks the way all my psx and saturn games are.

x2 chips have a solderless option.

If your thinking you want to do the chameleon so that you won't void your warranty, good luck. You still need to punch holes in the stickers to get the screws out and to scratch the clear coat off the contacts so that the pogo pins will make good contact. The solder chips are just as easy to remove or upgrade. The x2 chips come with external switches to switch bios banks or disable them. 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.
