Someone will have it in our Direct Connect hub..
If they dont you will have to track it down on MIRC (irc)..
im not exactly sure the name of the bios we need to run larger then 120gb but will check into it too..

Hi there,
You can edit any bios with an app called "XBTool" to add lba48, just remeber to get latest Evox Dash that also gives lba48.
The latest Evox dash supports G: drive.
Hope that helps.. _________________ XBox Ver 1.1 - PAL

Ok...
1. Start the app and load the bios file (xxxx.bin).
2. Then just select what you want with the check boxes.
(User friendly interface - easy to understand )
3. Save the edited file.
4. Flash edited file to chip on Xbox.
Make sure you have the latest version. _________________ XBox Ver 1.1 - PAL

Hi schirmk,
I use version 1.0.10. in the bottom left hand corner they have an option called "LBA48 Support and Default Partition Table Options".
I can send it to you if you want...let me know.

Hey Schirmk, which BIOS are you using?
I am using Evox M7 and I think it includes it. _________________ "Modding the world, one xbox at a time"
