Ok thanks man, ill keep my eyes open.
One more question. Could I install the 3 chips i have now onto my xbox? Would it hurt anything not to have that 1 chip there? _________________

I think it's all or nothing, but don't quote me on that. I think it has something to do with the bios specifically looking for a set amount of memory, not how much. Now cromwell/linux might not have a problem with it. I'd hate to say yes, and it doesn't work for you and the system is idle until you get the other IC chip.

take a close look at your soldering connections, all it takes is one stupidl little solder bridge between pins to frag the xbox, use a magnifying glass, whether its the big type or a small one. I know from taking electronics sometimes(but very rare) the flux can bridge pins as well, so clean all that solvent up as well
This is the same site that wes linked you to, but it is just the four chips and the seller saying he/she will install it for you for $40. I guess all you have to do is send them your board. _________________

Yeah and I'm not sure how often the actually do stock stuff. I never check up on it, I just know what they have in case I need it. If Bad Dude already has te chips though he can just send the mobo and the chips if he wants to pay the $40 install fee and shipping. _________________

Yeah I would definitely wait until I got a go ahead from a site administrator before I sent my stuff to them. I'm sure you're that smart though. I really want that mod myself for my N64 Emu, but I can't see myself paying $40 plus shipping for that. I would have better luck getting a computer store or one of my buddies around here to do it. At least then, I can keep an eye on the process. _________________

Man I've been looking everywhere for a 166 cable. Where did you find one and how much was it. I did find one, but it was like $20 not including shipping. I don't know why a simple cable has been so hard for me to find. _________________
Thanks for the link Fro. That's actually the only one I can find. I can find 100 and 133 all day long for around $10 shipped, but I just don't see paying $20 for that if it's not going to help that much. I really do want it for the backups and what not. Maybe I'll find one sooner or later from another Pc or something. _________________
