Hi,
I have a V1.0 box that I fitted a Xenium SP-ice to (directly to the LPC via the soldered in header) and it had the latest 2.3.1 OS.
I backed up everything via FTP to my PC, then installed the EvoM8plus BIOS so I could get the LBA48.
Unlocked harddisk then prepped a new harddisk via the Xenium tools (400GB). This created a C, E, F and G partitions.
I have EvolutionX Dash and the original MS Dash installed on C:
Problem I have is if I boot to the EvoX Dash then homebrew software works OK but original games and backups to HDD wont play. They start to play then freeze and the Xbox resets.
If I set the Xenium to boot directly to the original MS Dash and BIOS the sames happens with original games. None play.
Please can someone advise whay I gan do. I have IGR (In Game Reset) switched off in the EVOX Dash as advised by my friends but im stuck.
Thanks in advance,
John

Xeniums rock!
Don't worry about the IGR, it's never stopped mine from playing.
Try clearing the cache on E, if there's anything at all on it including bins and you should be ok. If not, let me know.
Oh, also it might be the bios. Perhaps the 4983 until you get things running well, for if you are using the wrong M8 bios, that will cause issues on your Xbox too. By the way, the 4983 is LBA48 compliant.
Keep me posted! _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Thanks for your help.
I downloaded the latest Auto Installer Deluxe and after backing everything via FTP wiped the lot.
It's now working great, thanks for your help. Using the Unleash dash which I think is better than the EvolutionX one.
I LOVE my new pimped up XBOX.

HA! Cool! Don't stop now, you've only scratched the surface of what your enhanced Xbox can do. So don't fade to black, share the wealth of knowledge you've gained with others that are just starting to tackle what you've accomplished. _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

Glad to hear you got it working. I am still wondering what your original problem was though. Definitely sounded like it could have been cache related though.
I have heard that the X, Y, Z partions can cause issues similar to that. Maybe since you wiped those clean and reformatted you are now okay...
Enjoy! _________________ Xbox 1.4

depending on the OS version used the clear cache option on the OS menu doesnt work for most people. Hence why the freezing problem doesnt go away
FTP or Unleashx,etc file manger can be used to manually delete the .BIN files. Reboot the box and all should be well.
sometimes it is necessary to back E drive and format it then restore everything but the E:\CACHE folder (dont worry it gets re created automatically)
