Other things that i have been keeping busy with, Building an XBOX Media Center. Yeh i know, im about 5 years late on that one, but on the plus side you can now get original xboxes for $59 from EBGames, and Hard Drives are dirt cheap (500GB $125). Cant believe how fast it is to load movies and it seems to play almost anything! I used the HotSwap Technique, sounds risky and envolves unplugging your IDE cable while its still powered by your PC.

I used the following sites for reference:

  • The Art Of Hotswapping, FAQ & Some Other Lessons.
  • How to Softmod Your Xbox Using XboxHDM (Ndure)
  • Transform Your Classic Xbox into a Killer Media Center Although i didnt use the Action Replay technique, too much effort, hotswapping was much easier and cheaper for me, also i dont think action replays are available in Australia.
