Original first ever xbox - help
ok i recently bought one of the very first xboxes very cheap (£2) but it did not come with any controllers or video cable etc.
once i get all them what is available to me regarding either flashing or chipping, does anyone have any chips still? I used to have a flash kit on disc and memory card but lost them years ago when moving.
basically I am going to set up a gaming station and would like to get this up and running, any help appreciated as the last timew i flashed or chipped these would probably be in the year 2000!!!

Try here matey. http://www.modchipcentral.com/store/home.php?cat=273
I threw out a clear cased Xbox a few months back with a xecuter 2.6ce installed with the lcd and around 500 games too :(
i did try to flog it on eBay but not even a £5 bid on it.
You could soft mod it it to save the hassle.
Loads of guides about on how to softmod.
Re: Original first ever xbox - help
Yeah soft modding is by far the easiest.
Number of methods.
I remember doing one method where you needed a lego or indiana jones game , forget which. Also was one using Splinter Cell.
You just load a game save onto a mem cart from your pc and load it using one of the certain games.
I did love the Classic Xbox. If you get it working, make sure to pick up Oddworld -Strangers Wrath, best game on the classic by far and imho is still one of the best games made.
It got a HD update on PC, Playstation but a falling out between MS and the Devs (Just add water) meant no Xbox Live release :-(

I have a couple xboxes here soft modded you can have both for price of postage if you want - save you the hassle of sorting yourself?
One crystal and a black one.
Probs a pad or so and cables would need to check.
