View Full Version : problem
well there is a slight problem...i have to find the version of the xbox but those damn stickers will be ruined if i open it.the thing is that the xbox is kinda old(crystal &don't know how old though)and if it's 1.4 or 5 i'll buy it from him.if it's not his stickers will be ruined and he doesn't want this.any other way?
well i'll install x-ecuter 3 and i read it supports fully 1.6 version so i believe it doesn't matter right?or is anything else i need to know about 1.6 versions?
ok i found a tool that you put in your s/n and it tells you the year made and your xbox version.if anyone want's it just say it

xbox-scene had an "xb-vesion" tab that will tell you

well mine was correct.you put the serial number and it tell you from a database on which people post their s/n and what version it is and it finds if they match

doesn't sound too sure fire.. considering that you cannot tell the difference between the 1.4 and 1.5 without using a mirometer!

v1.2-1.5 are all the same to me.
well yeah but it's better than not knowing if it's 1.6 or 1.0-1.5
today my brother who workd is a shop with electronics will tell me wha version of crystal they have!if it's i.5 i'll go instantly and buy the beast
well i can't find any 1.5 or 1.4 vesion of xbox...ony 1.6 so i ask you:
if a get an xbox with an x-ecuter 3 chip that supports 1.6 version.wll my xbox be as it's an 1.5?
don't know the differences.

There is no difference between what you can do with a 1-1.5 after the chip is installed. But, there is a hardware difference. Like it doesn't have a tsop, so you cannot flash any onboard bios. It has some kind of problem with the kernal and memory, or something like that. So you need 1.6 bios, any bios that is not compatible with 1.6 have a high chance of messing up your xbox hardware and making it unplayable, perminately.
THere may be a few more wires to solder, but functionality is the exact same. Oh yah, and you might get a crappy dvd-drive that is found only in 1.6's (crystal xbox's might have been made before the drives were chosen, so you could alternatively get one of the best xbox dvd-drive).
i'l stick to previous versions then :D
thanx

Modding a 1.6 is easy.

i think most of y'all missed the point, hes talking to himself on a emssage board, and he is simpy terrible at it as well. I simply hate it when that happens. This guy wanted to know if the software would work, and the modchip and software bost will. :)
