i was wondering if you can pn me the new bios too. i have the same chip too. or email me at gblythe_78@yahoo.com
why exactly does the M7 bios suck? i use it with no problems, and so do countless other people. is this just an opinion or do you have some good evidence that supports your opinion of the M7 bios?
The only thing I know M7 bios doesn't allow is a HDD that is bigger than 137GB in size. X2 4981 & 4983 bios's do support this feature though.
Have you guys tried the new M8 bios (for versions 1.0 onwards)or the m8.16 (only for later version xbox's).
Yeah I've tried the M8 bios and I had to go back to X2 4983. M8 didn't recognize the games I have on my HDD (F). My Xbox is V1.5 so I couldn't try M8_16 since it's only for V1.6
iv got the bios but cant flash it no matter how i write a cd-rw the xenium just will not find the disc or the d drive on the os and i cant ftp it with no network card
Did you rename the bios to BIOS.BIN? When you burn, did you put extra data (dummy files) to take up space on the disc? Might be the type of media you used also. Try different brands and see, I used Sony CD-RW and it worked most of the time.
when you start up your machine are you getting the blue xenium screen? I think it needs to have that..

I have a aladdin chip and i want to flash the 4983 or 4981 to it but it since it doesn't work. the official web says i have to hold the powere button for more than 5 secs to disable flash. but i can't disable it. can anyone help me? + anyone have problems finding x2 bios? i can email them the links if they help me.
