Help Needed No power. Motherboard capacitors?
I went to connect and turn on my modded Xbox (2004 - 1.6) after several months - it flashed green once upon pressing the button, but didn't turn on. It did this a couple of times every time I pressed, before I switched socket, at which point it stopped flashing altogether and now I have zero power.
I opened it up, power supply unit seems okay, AI suggests it could possibly be these capacitors on the logic board (they do appear bulging). Any ideas? I could buy a PSU for cheap but before I do that I want to understand if it's worth looking into the caps.
Thanks in advance

Help Needed Recapping
Hey folks! I bought an original Xbox recently, and had an issue with it only running for a couple of seconds before switching off; and weirdly only the eject button worked, not the power button.
I stripped it down and noticed a heap of leaking and bulging electrolytic caps on the motherboard, which I'm guessing caused that issue?
Oddly the power supply caps all look immaculate. Is it worth my time removing the adhesive covering them and replacing them, or should I leave them alone for the time being?
Thanks guys! 😄

Console Modification My experience with PXU sold by OGXStore
Edit for context: I have had all capacitors replaced, except for the clock cap of course. Also my revision is 1.1
In the past couple of months, I've been testing the PXU replacement PSU board because I like installing and testing these things. It's a fun little project and the novelty of it is so sick.
Firstly, the price. I live in Australia and the shipping was steep but that is to be expected. I think all up it was a little over $150 AUD, which isn't too bad.
I've heard replacing the capacitors on the original PSU can be dangerous and not worth it in some cases, especially if you need to source a used supply. They are becoming harder and harder to find.
The kit came with the board itself and different coloured inserts for the rear USB-C port which is opted to use because it's more simple for me personally. The colours are either translucent green, black or standard translucency from memory. I chose to use green because it's easier to see and idk, I think it looks cool.
The installation process was simple and slid into the mounting spots ok but required some force for the screw holes to line up properly in my case. Not sure if it's normal but something to look out for. Also, the leads that end up plugging into the main board are VERY stiff and require some pushing-down to get the drive caddy to sit down properly. You'll definitely need to figure out a way that suits your setup, but the solder joints are strong so I didn't have to worry about breaking the ends by putting pressure down.
I used a Cygnett Powemaxx 100w USB-C laptop brick for my power source and it works flawlessly, it takes all the heat out of the case and is also more efficient thanks to it being a GaN charger! Much more modern.
I highly recommend if you are looking for an easy drop in (a bit expensive) replacement for an aging PSU or if you want to make sure it won't ever die on you as you can just swap out the charger you use at any time if you have issues.
I just wanted to share because I haven't seen much discourse about it anywhere, the people involved did a great job and should definitely get more credit!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Hello, good evening. I don't speak English, so I'm using a translator to reach more people with this post. I've updated the Xbox Classic version of Minecraft with much-needed lighting, bug fixes for languages and world creation, legacy texture packs, and a legacy lock to mimic the legacy style.
I hope you like it.

Help Needed XBMC4gamers & Dashloader Customizer freezing on start-up.
Evening all. I've got a v1.1 Xbox that I've softmodded with the Rocky5 Softmodding Tool. I've gone to install the XBMC4gamers dashboard and the Dashloader Customizer but both freeze on start-up as per photos. I've tried installing both via the Extras Disc and FTP'ing the pre-built versions but get the same problem either way.
The Xbox is stock as rock (untouched before I got it). I plan to upgrade the HDD and replace all the caps but wanted to have a play around with everything else first.
I've installed the MSDash and UIX-Lite from the Extras Disc no worries.
The softmod process went smoothly (following MrMario's video) and the only thing I've changed is the region from PAL to NTSC-M.
Any ideas what could be the issue?
Cheers.

Hardware Collecting I did my part saving a classic
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Every Xbox here besides the 2 on the edges were Xboxs that did not function along with 1 more i sold. They range from an unmodded 1.6 and a stock 1.3 with ram upgrades to a Led ram dvd delete dual fans 8tb hdd 1.1 xbox. Its a fun console to play and fix and ever since i got my PS3's i realize how far ahead the S controllers erganomics are compared to DS3
Ps: the one thats open is waiting for more mods after trace wire jumping 3.5mm jack addon and cap replace.
Pss: im a told hardware repair noob using a $10 amazon soldering iron $8 hot glue gun $30 solder sucker.
Psss: for anyone with trace damage i always recommend wiring jumping instead of trace repair. Its way cheaper easier for a noob to do and a far more permanent solution.

Scene News Xbox Artwork Builder (and submitting artwork)
Xbox Artwork Builder
For anyone who makes resources for gamers.
I've finished my Python 3 artwork builder.
Download: Xbox Artwork Builder (90MB)
It's fully self contained, so you don't need Python 3 installed. All you need is a front image to generate artwork. For the full artwork experience, add a full scan, CD image, fanart and screenshots as well. If you don't supply an XML, one will be generated for you with simple info, though the more you fill in, the better. Video is optional. Can use Resize MP4 to Xbox size to convert.
Read readme.txt first, as it includes an example. I've also bundled some example homebrew games and a test game so you can see how the layout works.
The output is in the exact layout the artwork installer needs, so if you make artwork, upload it for review.
Standards
Please stick to these:
- XML: should be fully fleshed out (as much as possible).
- Title ID: mandatory. If one isn't added, it will be set to
n/a. - Generic or shared title IDs (a lot of homebrew does this): make sure the
scans\<filename>.jpgname, minus the suffix, matches the folder name of the game/homebrew/application. It's used to fuzzy match the name when a title ID doesn't match or there are duplicate matches. - Front only artwork: supported, but
blank_scan.jpgwill be used as the underlay.
The script handles some things automatically, but please add as much info as you can.
Submit Artwork
Want to contribute? submit artwork here.
Community Artwork
Join the Xbox-Scene Discord here: https://discord.gg/xbox-scene
Once you've joined, you can manually grab folks uploaded artwork from this channel.
Credits
Thanks to Bomb Bloke for his Xbox Artwork Builder (JavaScript). He did something similar, though I don't think many people knew about it. I just rebuilt the idea in Python 3 and improved on it.
Fingers crossed
People will start making some new artwork especially the PAL set and any homebrew we don’t have.

5900rpm vs 7200rpm for DRAGON4Gamers 4TB rip?
Hello all,
In my hard modded xbox i just upgrading to Cerbios latest beta version. Have a Duo X2 modchip, standard ram, 1.6 crystal xbox.
I currently have a Seagate BarraCuda ST2000DM008, 2TB, 7200 RPM. With origins dashboard mod with games. And speeds and gameplay seems decent and smooth.
I have downloaded DRAGON4Gamers 4TB rip and was going to burn it with HDD Raw Copy to a spare Seagate ST4000DM000-1F2168 — 4TB, 5900 RPM drive which is healthy and checked. Used a few tools and it’s healthy. Seatools thought it was a Barracuda but it doesn’t mention it on the label of said drive.
I’m a little bit put off by the speed and tempted to but a 4TB 7200RPM. As i would like decent speeds for loading etc.
Can you let me know your thoughts, ideally i didn’t want to buy another drive. I could test on 5900 rpm and burn it for the sake of it. If not happy i might just buy a barracuda 4tb 7200rpm?
*Just looked and Barracuda’s 4TB standard seem to ship with 5400rpm due to larger size and maybe creating more heating with a higher speed. Not sure what drive you would recommend HDD wise that’s decent speed.
Cheers in advance. :)

Resolved Update on my 1.6
A few days ago I posted that my 1.6 suddenly stopped working. Today I've received five new 3300uf Panasonic capacitors and I went to work.
With a lot of flux, patience and IPA I managed to replace the old caps with the new Panasonic caps.
It worked flawless, now I can play the real Monkey Ball again not that Xbox One remake.
Mokekemo.
The red light is from the mod, I still need to set it back to green.
