I had 2 Xbox systems softmodded before but a problem persisted on both of them. One of them, the Crystal Xbox I had for a few years now, got the Error 16 message displayed on screen which is the Date and Time error code and considering the Crystal Xbox was manufactured in 2005, the clock capacitor would need to be taken out so it can bypass that Date and Time screen to the Dashboard. However, I got that Error I think because I tried to reset the Xbox back to default with the MS Dashboard and everything, basically uninstalling the softmod to make it normal again and the Error happened. The other Xbox I had that I softmodded was a 2004 Xbox. The clock capacitor's still in there but I haven't tried resetting the Xbox back to normal or anything, what it had done though last month was that it stopped turning on. I think something happened maybe with the power supply or something relating to it that it wasn't turning on anymore. So soon, I'll be trying to move that motherboard into the Crystal Xbox shell (along with the Hard Drive) cause I know that power supply still works and see if it will turn on. Do you know if there's an easy way of removing the clock capacitor if one hasn't taken a capacitor out of a board before? I'm sure just yanking it out with pliers isn't ideal. And if you're curious, I do have a 2002 Xbox that I use daily with the Chimeric HD cable and I'm keeping that normal (no softmod) so I can play the games just fine.

First of all, thank you for your work, it must have taken a lot of effort to edit a dense and clear video like this one. Having owned and loved my Dreamcast, I chose the Xbox at the time to escape the Playstation 2 and its new world of mass-market gaming. 25 years later, I can see that I really did make the right choice. If you don't mind, I have a few questions. When it comes to changing hard disk, what are the constraints in terms of size or connection format, and do you know of a clear and precise guide like yours on this video? Second question, I live in France and have a PAL console to modify. You talk about a physical modification to improve the output definition of the video signal, can you tell me more? Again, if you can give me a link to a complete guide, I'd love to have it. Last question, I have another original xbox that I had modified at the time but some game images refuse to launch, I'm running Xecuter 2, is there a special method for certain games? RallySport Challege 2 is a particular problem. Thanks in advance for your help, I hope you'll have a forum to point me in the right direction and congratulations again for a job well done.
@BelowAverageGaming8 ай бұрын
I may edit this comment as I add more too it First and foremost, you speaking of a soft or hard modded system? You'll need an 80 wire 40 pin IDE cable, and I'd **highly** recommend the Startech IDE2SATA over the cheap alternatives. The max size being soft modded is **basically** 2TB. If you're hard modded and using Cerbios, up that to... ~~16~~ 8TB? Regarding compatibility, you can [Refer to This List](xboxdrives.x-pec.com/?p=list). If your drive isn't listed, I'd wager you won't have an issue. Generally, the HDDs to avoid in particular are 2.5" laptop oriented mechanical HDDs, and Western Digital 'Green'. Power saving features of these can sometimes cause issues. I also research whether a mechanical drive is CMR or SMR. Far as mechanical vs SSD goes, nothing is definitive. Some SSD users claim less 'pop in' on few select titles. Others point out how OG Xbox's don't have TRIM support for said SSDs. Just pick a side - the price per gb isn't as it used to be. I've got two personal systems with both.. The output modification is basically just installing HDMI kzbin.info/www/bejne/npKWZYKNqbGDY8ksi=PRkhMznZGJlDdEKU. As for the games, they could be corrupt?

@@BelowAverageGaming Thanks for your reply, I'll look into it more closely when I get to my computer... I'm replying to you from my mobile… and in a language that isn't my own. I'll take a good look at the links you sent me from my computer to make sure I understand things properly. I'm getting on in years and I need to see things clearly! Regarding your question about whether my console is modified or not, I actually have two of them, one running Xecuter 2 which causes problems with certain games, knowing that the same game won't launch either with an original CD or with an ISO image from another source. I don't understand why and, above all, I don't know how to update the system. Is it possible to do this directly from the console? As for modifying the second one, which hasn't received any modification yet, I'd like to physically modify it so that I can output a 720P signal. By the way, do you have an opinion on the cable suggested by Beharbros? www.beharbros.com/xbox I bought the one for the Dreamcast and it works very well. Thanks for the clarification about HDD or SSD disks, I've still got a few IDE disks to spare that I'll be able to use!

This is my first time modding an OG Xbox. How come the USB flash drive you recommend Is 512 MB? I'm not sure how big Xbox OG games are to begin with, but 512 MB is... not a lot. I'm only modding this so I can play games off of a hard drive/flash drive/whatever, because Xbox OG disc drives are notoriously faulty. I would like to have a bunch of games/mods/DLC packs/whatever on one flash drive/hard drive, but like I said, seems like the recommended flash drive doesn't hold a lot.

Do you have access to a DVD burner? I think the only way you're going to be able to fix this is if you burn the extras disc and run it. Can you boot up other games too?

@bomb44710 ай бұрын
You are either in a Pal region, which doesn't allow HD modes, or you're still using a Composite video cable. If you're in a Pal region, you would have to mod the console and switch regions to NTSC. On Rocky's softmod, you simply go into the Nkpatcher Settings, which is installed as an App by default during the softmod process, and switch from Pal to NTSC. If you're in an NTSC region, you need either Component cables or a quality hdmi adapter. Getting a cheapo composite to hdmi converter will look horrible, dont recommend it. The Electron Shepherd Xbox2hdmi or the Xedusa+ are good options. I use the Chimeric hdmi adapter but he's out for health reason for a while. I would get the Xedusa+ if you dont have a v1.0, which it has issues with hdmi audio apparently. The Xedusa+ has dual outputs though, so if you are v1.0, you can use hdmi for video, and component for audio. If you open the xbox up and see a tiny fan on a heatsink, have a single row psu connector, and a daughter board for the controller ports, you have a v1.0 Dont enable 1080i, the system just isnt strong enough to constantly run it, and only a handful of games run it, 720p looks just fine.
