I can only tell you about my own experience.I've installed a Xenium S.P. Ice in my version 1.0 xbox.This chip came with a solderless adapter but you can also install the chip by soldering.I chose solderless becauce I was afraid to solder it.(not much experience soldering)The good news is that the solderless adapter works!A small plastic block with contact pins for the lpc.The block just screws onto the motherboard and then there's one other connection.It's a small wire that connects to the Do (a small hole called a via) that's on the motherboard.They suggest soldering this but once again I was apprehensive about soldering so I superglued it in place! Laughing You can just put the wire in the Do without solder if you can get the wire inserted snugly.BTW getting this wire attached was the hardest part because the wire and the hole are tiny.My suggestion would be to read the manual of the chip you're interested in installing to see what you're getting into.There's an excellent guide to Xenium chip here at XBHQ which includes pictures of the install.Check the forum for the chip your interested in.Oh I almost forgot if you own a Version !.6 you will have to do some soldering for the Xenium.Version 1.0-1.5 is really solderless.One nice thing about the Xenium is it's built in Operating System.The O.S. brings up a menu when you turn on the xbox.The O.S. menu let's you FTP(File Transfer Protocol). basically sending files from your PC to your xbox and xbox to PC very important when you first fire that puppy up.This let's get a new dashboard up and running quickly.Another nice feature is that you can add a new bios by flashing it from a pen drive inserted into a controller port using an adapter(usb to controller port) which came with the Xenium.Sorry this post is so long.Hope I'm not being redundant seeing as all this info is in the Ice guide.Once again read the install manual for the chip you're interested in.That'll give you a good idea of what you're getting into.I'm still a noob and the Xenium was a quick and easy install.Good Luck.Read Read Read ,all the info is here at XBHQ.
