Nouveau mod chip Xbox : OzXChip

Nouveau mod chip Xbox : OzXChip - Consoles - Jeux Video

Marsh Posté le 23-01-2003 à 17:50:10    

Un nouveau mod chip viens de sortir en Australie (le pays ou le zonage DVD est illégale !)
J'ai vu la news ici : http://slashdot.org/articles/03/01 [...] ml?tid=137
Leur site web ce trouve là : http://www.ozxchip.com/
 
Apparemment, ce qui est bien avec ce mod chip est le fait qu'elle contient un BIOS open source et est légale (je ne m'y connais pas trop en mod chip et n'ai même pas de Xbox mais cela pourra peut-être intéresser quelqu'un...)
 
1 $ Australien = 0.54654 ?

Apparemment, les autres sont des hacks du vrai BIOS Microsoft et donc illégaux alors que celui la non. Le fait qu'il soit open source fait que c'est très facile à vérifier la chose.
 
Ce que je trouve intéressant est l'interrupteur pour qu'il boot soit sur le BIOS du mod chip, soit sur le BIOS original (intéressant pour la compatibilité Xbox Live...).

  • Flash upgradeable using OzXFlash, Evolution-X dashboard or PC  
  • Linux compatible  
  • Easy installation using a LPC header  


* (requires a compatible bios to be installed)

Programming Options :

OzXFlash: This free download when used with the OzXChip will allow you to flash any bios onto your OzXChip by simply booting to the CD which is based on the Linux operating system for the XBox. To remain completely legal the OzXChip is shipped with the Cromwell bios so no Microsoft code is used at all for this programming innovation.  
 
Progaroo: The OZXChip programmer connects to your PC's parallel port and gains power via the USB interface (unlike the MatriX that uses a not supplied 9V battery). Your OZXChip modchip plugs into the pin header when you wish to program the device.
 
Please Note: The "Progaroo" programmer is not required to flash the OZXChip via the EvolutionX dashboard and once installed inside your console you should never need to remove the OzXChip for future bios updates.

OzXChip Product Comparison :

Why buy the OZXChip over its competitors?
 

  • The price! Because the OzXChip does not need to be supplied with a programmer the cost of hardware is reduced dramatically! The OzXFlash program is also downloadable for FREE from this website's download section so all you need to purchase is the OzXChip.


  • We are the only modchip manufacturer that supplies a completely legal modchip solution that does not require the purchase of a programmer that is connected to your PC. By using the OzXFlash utility to can program your OzXChip with any 256k bios of your choice.


  • During the development of the OzXChip we discovered that many XBox consoles now have DVD-Rom drives that have a bulge on the underside of the drive. Microsoft have found a way to prevent many modchips from fitting in the console by producing drives with this bulge. Many modchips that uses the d0 point on the top side of the motherboard or mount towards the power supply will no longer work with these drives. The OzXChip clears this bulge completely, before you order another brand modchip you'd better make sure you don't have this bulge. Follow this link for more information.


  • Our hardware programmer works! Unless you have been living under a rock you would know about the enormous number of incompatibility problems that the Xodus MatriX's programmer has with your standard parallel port.


  • The Xodus MatriX uses pogo pins which is very appealing to people who do not have any soldering skills but the V1.1 motherboard (all XBox consoles manufactured after August 2002) contains holes in its LPC bus rather than soldered points and this means that unless you want to fill these holes your "solderless MatriX" ain't gunna work! Instead the OZXChip uses a very simple to install header that is inserted into this port although it does require some very simple soldering.  


  • We have established links with a range of Australia-wide installers so we don't just sell you the modchip we can recommend someone in your area that can perform the installation of your product if you choose to not perform the installation yourself.


  • Although it is extremely unlikely that your OzXChip would be faulty you can simply return the product to our warehouse within Australia rather than having to worry about shipping a faulty unit back to Hong Kong, USA or Canada. That means that the time you wait for a replacement is greatly reduced. Distribution within the USA has also been established.
