    No ! I would suggest a soldered mod as 2.x plus mods look good but you can`t beat hard wiring.



    A little soldering experience is all you need & and is far easier than a PS2 mod install.

    2.3 lite is a good bet & if installed correctly you will reap the benefit.

    If you're going to play on Live then you will have to be able to disable your chip other wise MS can detect you have a modchip installed. They will then probably terminate your Live sub and ban your machines MAC address.

    Of course I could be wrong but this is the advice I read a lot on XBOX Live and modded machines..

    yeah some have a switch fitted and on others the chip disables when you eject a game when its 1/2 loaded (its disabled until you reboot the Xbox again) I prefer the switch myself. Also - dont you have 3 threads all asking the same questions at the moment ?

    lol yeh fe_men we seem to have.

    also you cant use backups on xbox live - you need originals with an xbox live subscription to play.

    If xbox live determines you have a mod chip your xbox will get permanently banned.
