    I bought a used xbox, the person i bought it from said it was modded. but how do i find out if there is an chip inside or if only the bios have been flashed?

    PS. i do not have any switch to turn on & off the bios.

    take it a part and look inside if you see a chip then there you go.
    no chip then its flashed
    also boot the machine with the dvd tray open if it boots to a mini linux screen then you have a UDE softmod

    ***on a side note...all modded xbox's will not have Xecuter or Matrix inside under the Xlogo...

    It can even appear stock and have a green X with microsoft underneath it.
