    I'm looking for a modchip to play backup games on my xbox for £20 or under, can anyone recommend any?

    I have a version 1.1 xbox and would need to be able to play backups and load slayers 2.6 autoinstall disk as I am going to be putting a new hard drive in my xbox aswell.

    Any recommendations would be appreciated

    Ian

    I dont know how to solder but my mates dad fits chips into xbox's so I'm gonna pay him to do it, will the chip you've recommended play backups, read slayers disk and allow a new hard drive to be put in?

    Cheers,

    Ian

    I need to hardmod cause I'm getting error 7 with me hard drive while trying to hotswap (I've pushed IDE in as much as it'll go and tried a new IDE cable and its still error 7), so I need to put a new hard drive in, which requires chipping =/
