As soon as I get another xbox I'm gonna get back into modding them. I got into the ps3 scene for awhile and back into the psp for a little. But the xbox scene is the only place I seemed happy lol. I got bored with flashing drives on the 360s did a few jtags.
Now that I have all my equipment again I wanna do another memory upgrade on a xbox. This time for myself lol. And maybe figure out a way to over lock or replace the CPU all together. _________________ Please post all PC Questions at PC-HQ.com

Hey, if you find out, send me a PM about it - even a forum post. I'd love to see. It's just a shame the Xbox is SO close to 720p smooth video. _________________

Hi KenM-64,
Thanks for the offer mate, but i have already basically got my arcade all setup, it's more configuring software. I have all systems in my arcade, SNES, NES, MEGADRIVE, PS1, etc etc and i have artwork, videos and roms all customized. I can play it already with most games, but i need to config all the different emulators sometimes still.
I think i have a thread on 360-HQ where i talk about my machine and show some pictures or a video. It was a full MAME/JAMMA cabinet but i got bored with that and decided to go for a HYPERSPIN frontend.

I stumbled across this thread 3.5 years too late. I still check out the site
from time to time, but not too often. After high school ended in 2011, I was
too busy with college and work to have time for video games. With the little
time I do get to play video games I'm a complete PC gamer convert now. While I
still have all 3 of my original Xboxes, I haven't played any of them in
probably 3-4 years. I play my Xbox 360 1-2 times a year. I haven't bothered to
buy any of the current generation consoles and don't plan to...
My humble beginnings were from this site though. It peaked my interest in
computers back in 8th grade, provided me with years of learning and fun, and I
could still mod an original Xbox to this day(with a little bit of thinking). What I did
on this site for many years led me to go to school for computer engineering,
and ultimately led to my job working at Intel on the next generation Core
processors. Glad to see there is a few of the old guard still kicking on the
site and very very glad to see that the site is still up. Many of the old
sites I remember from 2007-2009 no longer exist.
Edit: I also just noticed that I'm almost to my 10 year anniversary on this site. It is nearly impossible for me to believe I've been around for so long. It seems like only yesterday when I used to run home from school and check the forums daily for new topics. _________________
