    hello world

    I need a modchip for OG XBOX, I flashed one with a bad BIOS. Where can I find it with assembly instructions? Someone would not sell one. The best would be one that allows me to relasher my TSOP (easy with CD) but could boot on bios debug.

    You mean you flashed the TSOP with a bad BIOS? If so, and it bricked the Xbox, I don't believe it's possible to reflash it, so that Xbox will definitely need a modchip to work from now on.

    You can buy the Aladdin XT PLUS2 modchip from various sellers on eBay, or from AliExpress. It's cheap, easy to install (on 1.0-1.4 Xboxes, at least) and gets the job done. It's only 256KB though, so don't try to flash it with a 512KB or 1MB BIOS.

    Here are installation instructions.

    You'll need to boot an Xbox Linux disk with flashing software, raincoat, to reflash the TSOP with a different BIOS. Try Resctoox

    gentoox BIOS/loader is a LINUX only boot BIOS.

    Yes you can reflash it IF you install a 29 wire chip (hard to find) or an EPROM wired directly to the XBox. Supposedly there are ways to flash it using modchips but I've never tried but once or twice. Takes a specific BIOS to do it from what I've read.

    Because when I've been online I've been on my phone.

    When I'm at a computer to log the order, you will get a reply.
