Hi,
I have been trying to get this disk to work, every time I put the disk in the Xbox loads up with a green,yellow and red light then it tells me it can't use the disk and it must be a DvD , CD etc but I have burned the iso to a dvd-r at 4x.

Any tips?

My Xbox is a 1.2 - 1.5 not entirely sure.
I used a Duo x3 chip.

[fallenangle]

With the chip on does it:-

Play original Xbox game discs OK?

Play original audio CDs and DVDs OK?

If yes to both then you've at least ruled out a disc drive problem.

However, unfortunately for you this won't be good news because a Xmas tree/fragging (red/yellow/green) front LED is apparently a sign of a chip problem. From your description so far it is behaving as if the machine isn't chipped and that would be my best guess.  

I suspect you need specialist advice related to the chip/install so should post about this in the appropriate mod-chip forum or newbie forum, not here.

Its origins

What does it do?
For softmodded Xboxes:
* If your Xbox will boot a rescue disc, no matter which softmod you have on there this disk will upgrade it to the latest MS Dash and the latest Krayzie or Kingroach softmod - your choice. And, apart from making a couple of choices to start with, and confirming a couple of intermediate questions, it's one-click - including removing the old softmod and populating the shadow C. Importantly, it preserves the content of your E drive, including gamesaves (apart from 007, MA and SC).
* While it's doing that it installs the latest UnleashX and EvolutionX dashboards and the XBMC shortcut.
* It installs Krayzie gamesaves on all Xboxes (Krayzie and Kingroach) to provide a useful back door.
* It has one-click fixes to all common softmod problems:
   - turn shadow C on and off (with visual indication)
   - turn virtual eeprom on and off (with visual indication)
   - enable or disable 480p and VGA
* It can remove all copies of eeprom.bin, thus eliminating the eeprom mismatch issue that is a common cause of blank screens and other problems.
* It can replace and automatically repopulate a corrupt shadowc, again with only one click.
* It implements ldotsfan's lxhdm for softmod hard disk upgrades, in only three steps, including repopulating the new shadow C and launching XBPartitioner 1.1 for extended partition formatting, so you don't get data corruption on large drives.

For chipped / flashed Xboxes:
* It only has the latest BIOSes, and all have LBA48 for large disk support
* It has a disk rebuilding option that automatically launches XBPartitioner 1.1 for extended partition formatting, so you don't get data corruption on large drives
* It can flash all TSOP types, including Winbond, and automatically set up the dashboards to work with the new BIOS.
* After TSOP flashing it has one-click cleaning for the disk, removing the softmod and installing a clean C.
* If you back out of the TSOP flash it has an option to clean up the disk and reset it to its original state.
* It installs Krayzie gamesaves on flashed Xboxes to provide a useful back door, in case your chip fails.

For all Xboxes:
* It installs common applications (including XBMC) to E or F
* It has one-click dashboard switching, putting the dashboard in the right place depending on your mod type. If you have XBMC installed as an application you can also select it as a dashboard.
* It supports blind video mode switching. If you've accidentally set your Xbox to PAL and your TV is NTSC only so you can't see the screen (or vice-versa), you can restore it simply with a couple of button presses and a couple of reboots.
* It has simple HD video mode enabling options that bypass virtual eeprom and launch the appropriate tools
* It installs a complementary UnleashX menu and a toolset to allow you to switch dashboards and fix common softmod problems without needing the rescue disc.
* Where one-click operation is infeasible, step-by-step instructions are provided on-screen.
* It has on-screen instructions to help you.
* It also has lots of error checking to prevent you from messing up your Xbox as far as possible!

This is great ldotsfan this will help a lot of people that ask about HeXen^_^

[Bubbalynch]

It works great is now my favorite Auto Installer. Safe, simple, and rather up to date.

Thanks heaps.

[ldotsfan]

:Indeed this disc draws upon the best ideas from Slayer, CASH, AID and builds on the foundation of Frosty and my personal favorite a optimal implementation of lxhdm. There is even Gentoox parts inside.

Heimdall deserves rounds of (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) a fine piece of work arising from  his expert understanding of all xbox Modding from softmod to tsop to chip to dash to bios

ill drink to that.

though i have wondered if it will work as an app? if i unpack the iso put it in a folder called HeXEn, and boot the default XBE?

[Heimdall]

Not directly, because it looks for files on D:\

It wouldn't be too difficult to install it on E:\ then do a search and replace on config.xml to repoint all of the D:\ references to a location on E:\, but not E:\HeXEn\, because I think I've already used E:\HeXEn\

[crusty_punk]

I love this disk... it has helped me through 2 TSOP flashes and 2 HDD upgrades. I burnt an extra copy just to be safe

[bigby]

Trying to format a Samsung 1TB sata drive (with a sata adapter), and I'm asked for a password. Thought it might be the password mentioned in the first post Heimdall01, but it says incorrect password.

Nevermind, i tried this instead -  *3.5.3. New Disk, NTSC Xbox   Passcode=AYBX

Where can I download this disk? Thanks.

[Heimdall]

Google.

[matt!]

Thanks I found it.

It can remove all copies of eeprom.bin, thus eliminating the eeprom mismatch issue that is a common cause of blank screens and other problems.

I am very curious about that statement above. On a softmod xbox, does this mean you can swap any hard drive from an xbox to another xbox without a problem? Like in the sense of literally just removing the hard drive without any unlocking and then put it in an xbox with a different motherboard?

No, it means what it says. It eliminates the eeprom mismatch issue that is a common cause of blank screens and other problems - no mention of swapping disks or removing the need for disk unlocking and locking.
