I have an xbox v1.0 and Ive got a chameleon chip. This stuff is really old, som im wondering if its worth it to change my bios.

I ran bios checker and got a bunch of "unknowns".

I really just want to flash the bios so that change my fan speed. What speed should I set my fan too if ive got a 250gig HD?

Should I just use xbox tools for this?

If it aint broke dont fix it.

As for your fan speed just hike it up in the dash settings.

I actually dont know, ill keep an eye on it and report back.

I have xbmc set up to run the fan higher, but that doesnt help when im paying video games and what-not.

Though you are not the first person to point out that if its not broke i shouldnt fix it. Im inclined to agree, its not like Im doing anything super crazy with my xbox, just watching movies and playing video games.

Yeah man if you want more fan it wold be better to do the 12 volt fan mod.

And you wont need to take a risk with a working bios to do it. Wink

Or an even better way if ez is what you want, you can do what i did and mount fans on the outside vents on te left and right side of the box.

Or mount a blower fan inside.
