Ok im thinking about getting an xbox and when i get one i want to chip it asap. i allready have a ps2 that i chipped myself and basically heres what i want to know about the xbox.........

whats the best chip for the xbox and any hints as to where i can buy one-
i only have dvd+r, the xbox can read those right? (i know the ps2 has to be a certain version)
what programs do you use to make the backups, can i use RNM the same way i make ps2 backups?

much appreciated and feel free to add anything else i might want to know about chipping the xbox

thanks

since u put the chip in urself
i figure u can solder
go for the x2 lite
get the 4981.06 bios
up the hdd to whatever size below a 250 that u want
(if u want.. u can always burn them instead)
download evox, boxplorer, ftp client, and xmbc from xbins

yeah i can solder no problem, how many wires does the x2 lite have? and whats the stock HD on the xbox, how many GB?

stock HD is 8gb, 10 if you have a seagate (but you must reformat F).

All chips basically have the same wire install since they use the same points. Most usually have no more than 9. only 1 is hard though.

and im not sure what RNM is, but i would DL alchol 120% trial and use it for burning. it works very good ;)

Yes RecordNow Max (RNM) will work for your backup needs on an Xbox.
