Dark Destiny Posted March 15 Posted March 15 XBlastOS v0.63 Description Read Me This is the code repository for the XBlast's Xbox Legal "OS". It is a replacement firmware or "BIOS" to run on the Original Xbox video game console. It also serves as software control interface for the "Xblast" line of modding devices for Xbox. This code is based on the excellent Gentoox Loader software which is based on Cromwell. This software contains no copyrighted code This software cannot circumvent security mechanism of an Xbox console RAM testing 256MB and 128MB RAM tests are supported within the BIOS menus. There is also a special RAMTESTER version of the BIOS which checks the original 4 RAM chips in either a Stock machine or an Xbox with 256Mbit memory. RAMTESTER version Press power button to start the test. Press eject to launch Xblast OS as usual. There is no video output - the test result is seen on the LED. If the Xbox reboots 3 times and then the LEDs blink red and green, then suspect RAM bank 1. If the Xbox shuts off super quickly (LEDs don't light, fan twitches) then you probably have a short circuit. LED codes: Test completed, no failures = green blinking RAM bank 1 test stuck = orange blinking RAM bank 2 test stuck = red, off, green, off RAM bank 3 test stuck = red and green slow RAM bank 4 test stuck = orange and green fast RAM bank 1 failed = LEDs off RAM bank 2 failed = red blinking RAM bank 3 failed = red, orange, off RAM bank 4 failed = red, green, orange, off RAM chip bank locations can be found here. 128MB and 256MB tests These are the normal tests available via the Tools menu in Xblast OS. RAM chip bank locations can be found here. Required setup to build x86 or x86_64 Linux system with gcc installed ia32 compatiblity layer packages must also be installed on x86_64 systems Currently building successfully with gcc-9.

The features for the 2 versions are not all the same. Generally speaking, the XBE version contains less feature. Also note that this software can detect if a firmware replacement device is inserted onto the LPC port. Certain options specifically related to XBlast Mod will not be available if the proper hardware is not detected. However, HD44780 LCD ouput is supported on the whole range of SmartXX devices and on Xecuter 3(CE). Notable feature available on both versions are: Change video settings (includes DVD,Game and Video region). 128MB and 256MB RAM tester Reset user settings in Xbox EEPROM Flash LPC/TSOP with image from HDD/CD/HTTP (limited to current bank on non XBlast mod) Lock/Unlock HDD, Display HDD info, format drives (64KB clusters supported) Notable features only available in BIOS version LCD ouput supported on all SmartXX/Xecuter3 and XBlast mod Save OS settings and backup eeprom to flash (not supported on SmartXX) Notable features only available on XBlast mod Control multiple flash banks Custom names for flash banks(outputs on LCD too) Quickboot bank(bypass OS) TSOP control for multiple BIOS banks (Xbox 1.0/1.1 only). https://bitbucket.org/prehistoricman/lpcmod_os/src/master/README.md Downloads XBlastOS_0.63.bin XBlastOS_0.63.bin.rar XBlastOS_0.63.xbe XBlastOS_0.63.xbe.rar XBlastOS_0.63_RAMTESTER_Stock.bin XBlastOS_0.63_RAMTESTER_Stock.bin.rar XBlastOS_0.63_RAMTESTER_256Mbit.bin XBlastOS_0.63_RAMTESTER_256Mbit.bin.rar Credits Fly out to Prehistoricman and psyko_chewbacca.
