You use it on your PC to edit a bios (.bin). I did it to do exactly waht you're trying to do. I believe I editted a X2 4981 bios (bios's after that are encrypted, is what I am told). After you edit the bios, flash your mod however you do it. I flashed my mod with an LPT adapter... for some reason, dashboard flashing never worked for me.


Sidenote: I spun my fan up to 60%. The noise is bearable and the CPU stays right around 47 Celsius.

Hope it all works out for you.

So can you tell me how to turn up the fan speed to cool it down a little? Without using xbtool Thanks

Umm I think you just connect the ground to a better ground to get the full force of your fan. The ground its currently connected to is somehow controlled by the xbox. So I guess you just ground it to another spot and you should be good.

Thanks for the help moved the ground wire. Makes a huge difference's in the speed of the fan. Runs alot cooler now.
