installing evox on HD Xbox

beertje · #1 10-02-2003, 08:00

I thougt it would be easy to connect to my Xbox now that my CD-RW with Evox was working but...
I connected my Xbox direct to my PC with a crossover cable, I turned off my fire wall, I gave my PC a static IP adres but FlashFXP can't connect to my Xbox.

Question: Is it necessary to connect the Xbox also to my TV when attempting to connect it via the crossovercable. The problem is that I don't have a TV next to my computer. So I tried to connect to my Xbox but when starting up the xbox the red light flashes (I gues because he can't find TV connection)

THX,

Come on spill the beens, how did you get it to work (EvolutionX that is)?
Been trying for 4 days and no look.

check the tutorial: http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/evox-install.php

and before burning evox on a CD-RW(!) you have to make an Xbox ISO file (with XISO) !!!

If your xbox can't read it: make the image with a dummy file, just create the iso with the fake file in the same directory, so it joins into the iso. Make sure it is like 300mb+.

If you dunny how to make a dummy file, just add in an extra folder in the same directory as evoX. Name it whatever you want. Then put a bunch of random large files in it. Create the iso and burn.

If you have problems connecting to your computer: check if you use a crossover cable (if you have no hub/router) and also your Xbox must be connected to a TV at the same time!

Hope it helps you,
