password

[AXmichigan]

is their a way to put a password or somethin on ur xbox when it boots so it can only be used by the person/people who noe that password?

There is a way, but it may be pretty ghetto.
First, you'd have to edit the bios to not look for "defalut.xbe".

The THC dash (non-lite..the beta final, you will have to edit some of code in the dash, to not autoboot and stuff like that, took me a while to get everything fixed, but it worked out great). It has passworded (character, not button) menus.

There was another dash or passed launcher, I do not remember which. Maybe someone else can suggest it. I was originally used and created when the nude DOA patch came out. Maybe it was HDD loader, I dunno.

overheat? You using cathode lights?

[AXmichigan]

didnt put any mods except a bigger hdd and a chip inside
im just real paranoid
u said that 128 farenheit was too hot
and my box usually starts around 118-119 and hits about 125-129 dependin how long i use it
u just made me real paranoid about it overheating....

Yeah I notice my old xbox is around that same temp and really never gets any hotter.


Then I got my new xbox and it does the same thing. Nothing is added to this new xbox other than an 80mm fan.


Im guessing its just the heat of the summer.

[TylerDurden]

I have. I currently have a 80mm fan and a hdd fan. Thing is, whats heatin up is my motherboard. Gotta figure a way to put another fan in there.
