[AXmichigan]

whoever did ur xbox, probably changed it through xbtool

[viper sniper]

is this easy to do, and how do i do this ,thanks in advance

[AXmichigan]

send the bios to ur comp
open it with xbtool
and ull be fine

[viper sniper]

oh well thats blow it i dont have a pc at home looks like im stuck then

[AXmichigan]

nice english
8)
but i still got what u said
u could just ask someone else who modded their box, theyd probably have a generic bios

[infidelity]

my color changes won't save??? I go to open the bio, and it shows the preset colors, I've tried different things to try to save the colors, but nothing is working. Could someone explain how to do this? I'd really like to do this!!!

[AXmichigan]

what u mean?
u just change the colors to the ones u want
save it as a new bios
then upload that bios
and reflash ur xbox

[TylerDurden]

Make sure you have the latest version of XBtool. It works better with other types of bios.



Tyler!

[AXmichigan]

what bios are u tryin to do this to?

[infidelity]

4980 bios. I know how to change the colors, but the "Save As" icon does not light up, you can't choose it, and I'm using the latest xbtool. It's not working!!

[TylerDurden]

I am currently using the 4979 and I had no probs with it.



Tyler!

[AXmichigan]

hmm maybe u unclicked somethin or the other..

[infidelity]

well, could someone explain it step by step then, it seems that's the only way i'll be able to figure this out. If it still doesn't work, then something is really wrong. Thank you.

[TylerDurden]

Arghh. Ill help you on AIM but I need your username to contact you.



Tyler!

[suggy]

Having same prob with 4980.67 Cannot save bios
4979.67 works fine
any help please.

[TylerDurden]

I think you have a choice to make then. :p




Tyler!

[AXmichigan]

hehe yup
maybe its just since the xbtool hasnt updated since the 4980 came out

[infidelity]

could someone please post on how to use xbtool to change the xbox logo? and if someone does, is their a way to use the x2 4980 bios for it? and if you can't use 4980 bios, I hope someone still explains exactly how to change the logo with whatever bios are needed. I thank you all.

[Quall999]

You mean changing the logo, as in just the color right? Anyways, it seems that 4980 is not yet supported in xbtool. Try 4979. If that bios work, then you know that the way your doing it isn't the problem.

[TylerDurden]

Yeah 4979 works. Infidelity Ive tried contacting you several times on AIM but it seems I keep missing you by like 12 minutes.




Tyler!

[AXmichigan]

12 whole minutes?!
blasphemy!

[peachymojo]

another good tool is xbtool color preset maker
you can see what your screen will look like when it boots saves keep messing with xbox and up having a nasty boot up color combination

[TylerDurden]

Yup yup. Thats a handy tool indeed.



Tyler!

[infidelity]

WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I downloaded XBtool Color BIOS Preset thingy, I was messing around with it on my pc, I could see the color changes and all the settings for it. I opend my "4979" bios, picked the preset color, Saved As, ftp'd it, NOTHING!!!! It's still GREEN. I turn on the xbox, it's green, everything, the logo, the X. What he hell am I doing wrong?? This looks so simple to use, I must be missing a step or something. PLEASE

[peachymojo]

Infidelity check your pm
hope this helps or you'll have to just hang around and wait on AIM
