You also want the inside to looks like this below ideally, but it don't have to be 100% spotless, just make sure nothing is blocked up. excuse the nasty camera quality, but the shine alone should be enough to illustrate it. You will end up with something like this. Make sure to use elbow grease and really work the polish into the XBOX, since it has a textured finish, the polish will settle on this surface really well and will keep it's finish for a much longer period. Make sure the system is disconnected when cleaning and do not spray directly onto the machine, the system has openings and the last thing you want is furniture polish inside the console when you turn it on. I suggest cleaning out all the grooves and opening the system completely to dust it out completely, i mean it does not have to be mega thorough inside, but enough to remove 99% of the dust.Īt this point i also recommend removing the clock cap if you have not already, but that's something else entirely. So a cheap and VERY effective method i use is furniture polish.įurniture polish acts as a dust boundary to mostly wooden surfaces, and is also a polish.

These consoles are dust magnets especially internally, so keeping your system free of dust much like a PC should be up there on the priority list if you want to maintain a healthy system. Let's get on with cleaning before we go into the modification of the XBOX system. You can then check to see if it is a 1.6a or a 1.6b by looking at the ram.įor ram location please see pic below ram is highlighted in red. ( please see pic below showing Xcalibur video encoder) The video encoder can be found towards the back of the motherboard behind the heat-sink near the fan and the audio video output socket. (located at back of board near video connector). Notice how the 1.6 has the orange wires missing different to the 1.2 to 1.5.ġ.2-1.5 can be further distinguished by the video encoder that was used You will see it is a twin row connector completely different to the 1.0 and 1.1. The version 1.0 and 1.1 have a single row of pins on the power connection socket on the board.Īll other versions 1.2 and above have twin lines of pins.īelow is the ATX type power supply board connectors for a 1.2 to 1.6. The version 1.0 and 1.1 both have a look identical apart from two key things.ġ) The 1.0 has a heat-sink fan and the 1.1 has no fan.Ģ) The 1.0 is the only version that has USB controller daughter board. If it has a fan on the heat-sink it is a version 1.0. These simple steps will help you identify which board version you have.īelow is an image of a version 1.0 board note the power supply connector. There are a few ways to tell which model of xbox you have. Now for modification purposes the best XBOX versions are the 1.0-1.5 versions, the 1.6's have a serious hardware revision and do not have a TSOP, they also cannot have the clock cap removed which is not needed. The XBOX had a number of hardware revisions, these are 1.0-1.6 Inexperienced people will have far more room to break an XBOX.Įhh i suppose it's a bit time consuming. You gain access to emulators, XBMC and much more. Use it like a computer or as a server (i will not be talking about this)įor PAL systems this can enable the hidden HD modes by switching the video system to NTSC over component, 720P/1080i (fully rendered no upscaling!) You can lengthen it's lifespan (will talk about this further) Pro's & Cons of modifying the Original XBOX. Is the modification of the XBOX system legal? Yes completely.Īre we allowed to talk about piracy and other illegal matters? NO, read the damn forum rules, THIS IS NOT HERE TO ENABLE PIRACY. Well by now some of you will know i am very fond of the big ol' OG
