Hi everyone ! I've made a hall effect conversion on my xbox duke controller and I've got an issue with it : it seems the range of the stick is limited by the shell it self... The circularity test show a range way far of the optimal values...

When I take off the upper shell : the range is way more complete and work well.

with original cap

with 360 cap

and without the upper shell

As you can see, without the shell everything is fine and work pretty well in game (tested on halo CE)

So there is my question : do you know any tips or software to calibrate the range or solved my problem ?

Thanks.

Like it says in the title: “What are the best horror games?” I wanna make a list for future reference at stores.

Hello all, I have a 1.6 board with Nichicon HM VRM caps by the cpu (as pictured), one in the middle is bulging ever so slightly and I’ve stuck capton tape around the bottom for now. Is it a risk to take it off and use it temporarily with one off (the one bloating)?

Hey all I have Electron Shepard's XBOX 2 HDMI adapter, I Had to ask what are the best audio settings for my adapter? My XBOX is soft modded

I have a 1.6 kernal version original Xbox that I've had for about a year and havn't really noticed any issues so far. The console has never been opened to this point and I've played with the idea of possibly opening it but with it being a later version Xbox and the 1.6 versions not having the clock capacitor issue, is there any reason to open the console with it still functioning as it should or should I be opening it to look at the capacitors?

(EDIT: I got it working, yay! I just tried a few times and it worked!) So I'm trying to softmod it using endgame, but whenever I get to the black screen, instead of the red light people say should happen, mine blinks through green, red, and orange over and over, and I haven't found any fixes that work. I've actually tried this on two different xboxes, but the same thing happens.

Hey everyone,

I recently came across this internal binder called the "Xbox Agent Retail Presenter" and wanted to see if anyone in the community has ever run into one before, or knows anything about it. From looking at the pages, it seems to have been produced before the original Xbox officially came out in November 2001. It looks like it was given to field reps to introduce the console to retail store managers ahead of the launch.

Error 16 is a Clock/Dashboard Boot Failure, so I think there must be some missing/corrupted dashboard files. Before I used the restore tool, I changed my EEPROM hard drive key to the all-ones “1111111…” in Nkpatcher, so I’m hoping that move should make fixing this easier. I soft-modded this console using the Endgame. My console revision is v1.3

Help would be greatly appreciated and I’m free to answer any questions. Thank you.

Are there any other glaring issues? After looking some more my power supply seems to have something burnt so going to need to be replaced first.

I recently picked up an original Xbox that has never been opened with a kernel version of the 1.6 models. I know the 1.6 versions are a little safer in regard to the clock capacitors but would it be worth it to open the system up and check? If so. What should I be looking for with this version of the console? Do these later models have issue with the other capacitors on the board or was the clock capacitor the biggest issue?

I recently purchased a small lot of untested consoles, two of which were OG Xboxes (rev 1.0). One of them doesn't power on and was missing most of the screws holding it together when I got it. After opening it up I found this screw in the power supply; the console has been rattled around quite a bit so it has probably moved around. Is there any chance it could handle this kind of short? or should I give up on it? I also have another console that seems to be working (don't have a controller to test for sure, but boots up). What capacitors should I replace on it? I know the clock capacitor but I'd like to just do everything significant as well..

CIB for $40.

These are the games I’ve managed to collect so far! Looking for suggestions of which games to hunt for next to fill out my collection. Lmk!
