    Hardware 2 xbox one's 1 network

    yes it's strange that she's not showing up online on the friends list, but I am on her system, so I guess I will have to get a gold card for my system as well then, I thought maybe our xbox one's were clashing with the router or internet that's why she was not showing as online on mine.

    Hardware 2 xbox one's 1 network

    that's what I thought, but I checked and she is set for online, the thing is we both seem to be connected because we can both go to the online store and other things, but we can't play online together? it's strange, for example she want's me to play minecraft and enter her world that she made...

    Hacking is it the flash or the 12v fan?

    Ok, I'm not sure if it's the firmware or the 12v fan that's installed, but all the new games I backup don't play right or I get the message while in a game that it can not read the disc because it's scratched or dirty. I think the firmware I flashed was the 3.0, I'm kind of going towards the fan...

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    I guess I got lucky with the reflow, and adding the new fan, I have to admit the fan is a lot louder and when I put my head against the back of the sofa I can feel the vibrations coming thru it LOL but hey I can live with that if it keeps the box running.

    Hacking Turn on machine, and tv says, 'Opening'. Drive doesn't engage

    have you tried pushing the drive door in by hand? almost like a little forced push, to see if it gets back on track with itself? if not then maybe a look on ebay might be in order and find a new drive.

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    Just installed my new fan mod into the box it's 12v and you plug the power into the back of the dvd drive then into the motherboard, tested it and it is louder but i can feel a whole lot more cooler air. the noise won't make that much difference, once the game's start up, and since i reflowed...

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    to be honest i's not worth the bs to get another board, and the falcons and jaspers were to much to buy, could go out and buy a new slim xbox for what they want. also don't come up much on ebay, might be some there now, but i have had enough sleepless nights over the xbox 360, just gonna hope...

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    ok looked on ebay and seen those stick on one's the copper one's are said to be the best? but not seen any for the chips under the gpu heatsink? i guess that heatsink is meant to trap the heat from them as well? anyway, i have been thinking for a long while now about buying a re-balling kit and...

    nice little hint there Dinoh, i can pick both the newer coolers for about $6.00 on ebay, i was also going to get new xclamp and screws, but might wait and see what happens when i put this back together, letting it cool down now for 30 mins, just done heatgunning it lol

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    i'm going to try and reflow the ram blocks with my heatgun, this is the last resort but it's the only thing left for me to try, i did place some washers on the ram next to where the gpu chip is with a touch of thermal paste and it worked longer than before, but it's heatgun time.

    Hacking rrod on my new board

    i'm leaning towards trying to get a slim cheap, where's the best place to get any kind of chip from? and will it allow me to play the backups i've burnt on disc. i need a change from the phat's, and i am still trying to get this one somewhat running.

    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah it's all choice and that's a good thing :)
