[@madmax2010ok]

Great video. Helped me save my 1.6b xbox. Funny thing is that the caps that you replaced looked fine but the clock cap was bulging. I replaced it... 1 farad at 2.7v. Then turned it on...and the 3300uf caps you replaced blew. Guess they were old. Replaced them. To get the heat sink gunk off the cpu/gpu and heat sinks...I used acetone. (aka nail polish remover). Still waiting on caps. Thanks for the video!!

[@Retroprofrank]

Replacing the capacitors and then XBox isn't only needed when they blow. This should be changed every 5 to 10 years at the maximum. Depending on how much it's used not only that but good clean capacitors will strengthen up your signal making the image look a lot clearer could clear up any fuzziness in the video picture as well. All in all it's a great practice to do anytime I get an Xbox in my hands

[@ToothpickMan11]

What I do is just let the Xbox run for about 10 minutes, then unplug it and hold down the power button for 10 seconds to discharge any current left then remove the heatsinks. They usually come off butter smooth while the chips are still warm. That way there's no risk of damage.

[@AlDim000]

This "black tar" / "thermal paste" is actually a phase change material pad (it gets softer when heated up) which still works well on most of these consoles unless they've gone through an extreme amount of power cycles. This is why most OG Xbox units have a very minimal temperature change (if any) when changing the PCM to a thermal paste.

[@JohnJTymn]

lol wholly thermal paste batman! Excellent work bub. Thumbs and sub, peace be with you :-)

[@pixelsrnautded9286]

I used a smaller laptop ssd with a caddy. It produces 2 degrees less heat and it helps airflow. SSD's are so cheap nowadays. The ssd technology is good now that the wearing out problem should not be an issue I hope. And I used the red startech adapter.

[@MrWaalkman]

Excellent video! I've got three modded OG's, and the soft-modded one has the header soldered in but no mod chip. My original one from back in the day with its Xecuter mod chip, and two from eBay that were modded. When I saw the bare header on a modded xBox I figured that was what was going on (someone installed a mod chip to do the mod and then removed it). The hard-modded one from eBay is a bit of a head scratcher. It has a X-DU mod chip, a sticker in the center of the bottom of the case in Japanese? Chinese? Korean? as well as English. At first I didn't think it was from Japan since the sticker states that its operating voltage is 220 - 240 volts and Japan is 100 volts. But installed on the hard drive is a video clip that plays upon bootup of a cute Asian girl modelling on a set with an announcer speaking what sounds to be Japanese, and emulators that include games that expressly forbid their distribution in North America, and others that are only in Japanese. I will take exception to installing electrolytic capacitors *backwards* making them go pop. The v3.1 040 CPU board on an Amiga 4000 has not one, but three caps installed backwards from the factory. They rarely cause a problem, most A4000 owners don't even realize it. Only worth fixing when doing a full cap overhaul of the board. That's not to say it's a good idea to install caps backwards, and I fixed my caps on my A4000. As for wrestling, we would have to go back to the late 60's early 70's for me. :) *Forgot to specify. :)

Hey frank love your videos. Just wondering what to do next. 1.6 and 1.2 xbox softmodded long time ago. Last week installed the alladin modchip in both. What do i do next. Use hexen dvd and install reg dash or remove softmod dash or flash the chip then install new dash. Dont want to loose stuff allready on the drive. Thanks for help or whoever else does

[@zdigitalartist]

Amazing, heaven sent video Frank! I have this same Halo Edition Xbox and the hdd just died. I bought the Aladdin chip to install a 1TB SATA drive so I can save my prized green jewel. QUESTION: How did you ground the D0 for this 1.4 version board, from D0 point on the motherboard to the D0 pad on the Aladdin chip or to another point on the motherboard? That's the only thing I didn't see in your incredibly thorough video.

[@Retroprofrank]

D0 from the motherboard straight to ground... this will make the chip turn on all times

[@zdigitalartist]

​@@Retroprofrank Which ground? Sorry Frank, I'm a noob and a lil confused by what I've read in the Aladdin install guide. Xbox V 1.6 wants the D0 wired to the screw plate, so I want to be sure I'm getting this right on mine.

@@zdigitalartist if you're modding a version 1.6 this guide this video is for you if it's a 1.4 it's not. Everything you do is at your own risk so make sure you research as much as you possibly can

@@Retroprofrank Thanks for the Reply brother. Sorry to impose. Your videos are great, so I had to ask. You are LITERALLY the only guy who has mod chipped a V1.4 on KZbin. Just wish the vid had shown you doing the D0 to ground connection. I'm on OGXBOX Reddit now trying to get clarification. One guy told me he doesn't ground the D0 at all. He just bndges the BT and BAM! He's done. Lol

[@Retroprofrank]

funny I wrote up a big article about this.. cannot emulate or play PS1 discs. However there are a handful of PS1 games that do play very well on the original Xbox through emulation. There is a list of about 50-70 PS1 games that run very smooth. I do not have this list available however

[@RickRickiGames]

Very informative video!!! Thank you so much for that! I was curious I have the Halo console and it turns on and everything but it won’t play games... It’ll try, blink green the whole time and then give up! Do you think I need a new hard drive or just to replace the capacitors? I’m waiting on some thermal paste to open it up. I don’t have a soldering iron though unfortunately so all I can do is remove the clock one for now and clean up any mess it made.

[@Retroprofrank]

It's definitely worth trying could be a number of different things could also be power supply hard drive you have to use the process of elimination.. I would recommend buying a solder kit on eBay something that comes with a practice board in order to teach you how to solder make sure you use flux and take your time make sure you properly ventilate as well because you can get sick from the vapours.. good luck

@@RickRickiGames make sure you practice practice practice. Before you do anything that requires a lot of skill. Grab yourself a used VCR for $2 from I used electronics store take it apart start taking off components one at a time using your soldering iron and putting them back on good way to practice.

I even tried (while Fry's electronics was still around) to make a cable myself, and failed miserably. HOW and where do you get the cables that will work?! Can you even get them anymore?

You can go to the Dollar Store and get yourself a dollar store paint brush. Bring the motherboard and the casing outside in the backyard go over the motherboard gently with the paintbrush. Make sure the paint brushes dry and clean. This is a good way and a lot cheaper than using compressed air

@@Olie956 personally I don't see how using a very tiny bit would destroy it but it is always possible that you could do so. I highly don't recommend doing it the way he does in the video that is for sure, just a very tiny bit on your finger and spread it around. Shortly after clean it all off with 99% isopropyl alcohol.
