Time To Throw Down!!!

I am throwing down the challenge for the Coolest looking Xbox As I will be challenging my friend Chase to see who can make the best damn looking Xbox, he recently decided to get one and mod it, taking interest and lack of modding projects I decided I will pull out mine and see How much damn cooler I can make mine look!

Gamecubes Finally running backups



Ok so I know its older info but I finally got 4 cubes running back-ups one of them fully modded and the others with SD Media Launcher.

Though this proccess was more of a pain than i could have ever imagined, They make it seem so easy but the GC Laser is picker about its media than i am with my food and that means pretty damn picky!!!

I had troubles wondering if something was wrong with the chip but after a good amount of time I came to find that every cube laser has to be adjusted differently in order to read learning that my Viper Extreme install was a success I just didnt have the frequency right and I wasnt using the right media.

so heres What I figured out

1.Gamecube (Rev a) 164 ohmz - Verbatim, Ridata Ritek

2.Gamecube (Rev b) 34 ohms - Verbatim, Ridata Ritek

3.Gamecube (Rev c) 270 ohmz - Verbatim, Ridata Ritek

4.Panasonic Q (? ohms) - Ridata Ritek


I had also Tried, Memorex, Fuji Film, Sony, Tdk with no luck whatsoever So if your working on a cube I suggest a modchip to make it easier than having to reboot the media loader disc and burn to RIDATA media and just leave the case open test the disc turn the Pot slightly, then try again repeating this proccess till it works! Also finding the emulators to work with a modchip directly off the disc is a pain in the ass so if you have the extra cash (19.99) I would buy the SD media launcher just for the memory card with the SD adapter to make things easier.
