Hello all,
I'm thinking of modd'ing my Xbox, and was wondering if anybody has suggestions as far as mod chip/upgraded HD/software? I'm a total noob in the Xbox modding, so bear with me 
I searched the board before posting here, and I did get a couple of hits for "xbox hacks", but nothing really spoken of in terms of doing it yourself.
Seems from reading on other sites that the "Xecutor2" is the mod chip of choice. And for HD upgrades, seems that 120gb drives seem to be the sweet spot since nothing over 137gb will be recognized. (but definitely looking for feedback before making any purchases) The solder vs. non-solder mod chips isn't a major concern, as I can solder electronics just fine.
Basically, I'm looking to have all the cool features of a hacked xbox, along with the ability to play emulators, play media files (mpeg/avi/mp3), and of course save games to the HD for direct access.
I guess the hacked software is the major thing... I'm sure there are probably HD images floating around with all the needed software setup and ready to go. So once the mod chip is in place, and you burn that image onto a new HD, you should be good to go. Aaah.... if it were only that easy
Any suggestions on this would be appreciated
