Well gonna change the chip in the box and decided on the SpiderGX. So far mixed reviews on the chip. Majority of complaints are due to the lack of manuals when the chip was realeased... Everyone seemed to running around like chickens with there head cut off trying to install this thing... Well the manuals are out now on the website. Props for the quality of the manuals posted and the ease of their website. Well see how good they are though when it comes to installation. TeamspiderGx claims to be a seperate entity from the TeamSpider crew... Which is probably not true but maybe these guys are trying to start anew and redeam theirselves from the problems of the older 1.0 and 1.1 spider chips. It also seems like they are trying to pump out a lot of recent support for the old chips.

That is one cool lookin bug dude!
The newest (and presumably last) series of Xboxes, rumored to be some v1.7, have you found issues with any of your chips working in 2005 model Xboxes? _________________ http://twitter.com/HQ_Shark2th

The only real problems I've been able to find is that some people with the newer boxes are have problems with the install. But should see less problems with freshly posted install manuals. People that have installed it correctly seem to be happy. _________________ Halo SE Xbox

If you cant see the UPLOAD FILE button when you are making or replying to a topic then you will need to change your theme to '030803_xboxhq' under the Your Account section/Themes..
