I believe an older version of the chip may require a solder fix. That is why some chips need soldering and others do not. Official distributers have the fixed chip (usually listed on the official site).
However, I have heard nothing but bad news from this chip. If you can solder, then I suggest you get a different chip. The wires seem to pop out of place a lot. It is a very good cheapmod if you plan on soldering though (non-solderless cheapmods sell for less though). And you will most likely have to flash any xbox modchip (applex may not). They include a free Cromwell bios to stay away from some legality issues, they do not provide any MS code (the hacked bios).

ok. The only 2 solderless mods ive seen are the spiderchip and Xbit. Do you recommend XBIT? If not, are there any solderless mods that are any good?
How many wires are involved in soldering a good xbox modchip? And while we are on the topic, what is a good solder chip? And I guess a quick search on google will turn up the right bios ill need.

Dude!!!! if you can chip a ps2 you will easily!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! chip a xbox its childs play!
![]() Decent cheap chip i reccomend is DuoX2 High range chip X3 More wires to solder tho For a xbox your looking around 9 wires 8 of which can be done by pin header so ull be fine ![]() any problems send it to an installer cheaper and less hassle than a solderless one believe me

ok. does the duox2 come with a pin header, or is it entirely solder?
and i guess ill have to flash the chip so itll play backups. I guess thats my main concern. I dont want to change the dashboard in any way. i want everything to look the same, just play backups.

The Xecuter 3 has a solderless adapter available Xpter. But really besides the pin header there are only 3 wires. Just mask off the connection with tape first. Piece of cake. Follow the flashing tutorial off thier web sight. Piece of cake. Then just use the MS dash.
