connecting xbox to pc

Hi all, Im very new at this. I have just had my xbox modded and want to connect it to my computer.I am currently using windows 98 and xp.
I have a cross-over cable and the flashfxp program but I can't get the pc and the xbox to network.
please help.

 

search through past posts for details, but briefly.

You need a bios on the Xbox that supports this, then you will need a dashboard which can configure your xbox network card (ip address, which must be in the same range as you PC).

 

Use Evolution X [personal recomendation] as a dash as i think most people know more about it then others
for more info on FLASHING your chip or installing 'Evox' - for short the visit
http://www.xbox-scene.com/
and click on tutorials
I can't tell you were to get the BIOS as it is illegal (dont c y though)

 

I've got evolutionX and I burned it onto a cd/rw and also onto a dvd and the problem now is that the xbox says it can't read either of these.
It has played a movie with the same type of dvd but wont with this program on it.
I have set everything up by following the tutorials but there is no info on this problem.(that I can find)
thx in advance.

 

Right, we need info if you need help.

What Bios are you running?

What dashboard are you running?

Have you set it to configure an IP address?

When you say you can't read the CDRW / DVD, what are you trying to do? Flash the Bios? Install a Dash?

A guy just put the excutor chip put in the xbox and that's it.He didn't put anything else on it.
It looks exactly the same as it did before but it can now play burnt games.
Everything was original before the chip was installed.
I am now trying to put evolutionx dashboard on so I got the program evolutionx and unzipped it to find a heap of files.The tutorial said to change the IP in the .ini file as well as the pc so I did that.
I burnt the evolutionx files onto both a cd/rw and dvd and the xbox says it can't read it.
I have used 2 different brands of medium but still nothing.
thx in advance.

 

wait... you say you have a chip in it?? are you sure because i've never known anyone leave a chip in it without putting the evox dashboard software in it
also its a good idea to find out what dvd drive you had in your xbox eject the xbox and if you have an arch shaped openin on the tray its a thompson (crap) if you have a key shaped openin you have a philips (ok) if you have two small holes either side of the shaped openin you have a samsung (best) thomspon won't read cdr and i believe the xbox can be fusy about some cdrws aswell check which drive you have first then you can check around to see which media peeps have used

 

i watched the guy put it in but he never installed anything on the box while i was there.and it can play burnt games no worries.

 

ok read my thread again cuz i was editing it as you was postin lol

 

Do you mean the door shape??? its like this _- ( where the 2 lines are joined by a straight line )
I know i sound like a dumba** but i don't know much at all about this.lol

 

if you eject the tray where you put your game there is a shape there (where you place the game on the tray) yeah that's the shape i didnt quite understand you art lol so i hope this will help us both understand

 

How do i come in to the hd on my xbox. I can conect but i Don't find C: F: E:
What do i do?

 

rubba .... what ftp program are you using and how do you know your connected when you cannot see your xbox hdd

 

Hi, thx for being so patient.
if I am facing the front of the xbox and press eject - looking down where the dvd/game goes, it looks like a U shape so i think it might be a crappy thomson...lol
what now??

 

yep crappy thomspon lol i'll i've heard you can use a memorex cdrw with that drive what ones have you tried so far and are you choosing full erase before you burn and are you burning an iso? as an image? very slow

 

also what chip do you have because it sounds like it's going to the msdashboard is your chip and xbox chip (can you switch your chip on and off)
cause it just dont work if you boot up with chip on it dont give you a message?

 

ok i don't think your makin an iso you need to make your evox into an iso craxtion does this also isomaker do a search there easy to find www.craxtion.com

 

Damn....lol
I have used verbatim cd/rw and a no name dvd( the dvd played a movie no worries).
I just copied what was in the evolutionx zip with nero and it said it was an iso.I just burned it as data at 2x.
I fully erased the cd/rw before burning this.
Can you tell me exactly what files need to be on the cd that the xbox needs.I just put everything that was in the zip on there.
thx.

 

thats it then you need to burn it as an image it isn't data it's an iso which is an image anyway do that do a full erase takes around half hr or more and then burn as an image very slow and it should work

 

it is an executor chip and that's all i know - it's not pro.
i haven't used craxtion - is it easy to use?
that's probably the problem.........duh !! lol
