![]() Also I can't remember the exact details, but I've had a similar issue whereby certain ROMs would completely fail to ever boot unless the last ROM had booted successfully at least one time (meaning every attempt would have to be repeated). I've also noticed some carts will be detected but not flashed properly unless you properly ram the cart into the back of the PSX (loose pin?). If you're booting off a cart, it's far less reliable on a bricked XPlorer, compared to using the CDR the plugging it in and enabling comms afterwards. Heyhey, you'll find the ROMs and a nice conversion table showing which cart can accept which ROM here (in theory):īut uhm, how are you booting XKiller to do the hotswap? Then i contacted Tim about this and he kindly answered me but unfortunatly, he doesn't have the X-Flash source code anymore so currently anyone willing to dowgrade those versions will meet the same issue. I guessed X-Flash could bypass this but it would need to properly recognize my FX first. ![]() (In this situation, trying to hotswap starting from the Winbond version just won't work !) Luckily i have two FX models with those 2x SST eeproms so i can unbrick with booting on the working one, hotswap to the bricked one and then reflsash with X-Killer. If flashing the FX with a 1.xx, 2.xx, 3.xx rom installed to a 4.xx, it will brick it. If flashing the FX with a 4.xx rom installed to a 1.xx, 2.xx, 3.xx, 4.xx, it will work just fine. This can be partially solved with X-Killer, which detects those as a 384 KB flashrom, but: X-Flash won't properly detect my FX that uses the 2x SST 29EE020 eeproms so i can't use it to properly flash this model. X-Killer then worked just fine, so thanks to all of those involved. I installed Windows 7 SP1 圆4 with Tim's X-Killer Inpout32 version i grabbed from Simias' page and the Inpout32 driver mentionned on Orion's page I installed Windows Xp pro SP3+ x86 and Sicklebrick's patched X-Killer with the GiveIO driver from here.īoth X-Killer and XLink95 worked just fine, so thanks Sicklebrick !Ī Lenovo T410 with an ExpressCard using a PLX OXFORD OXPCIe952 chipset. I could get my hands on a few machines to play with :Īn old IBM T43 with a native parralel port They both came with the Xplorer 4.52 PRO (UK) 05-11-1999 rom installed and i wanted to upgrade them with the Xplorer 4.52 PRO (UK) 22-11-1999, but i can't since X-Flash is complaining about the rom file being too big for the detected EEPROM.Īny help would be appreciated since i don't really want to brick those. Is that because they use 2 SST 29EE020 EEPROM and X-Flash doesn't handle that proprely ? My other two FX, the SST29EE020-120-4C-NH 256K x2 ones, are detected as SST 29EE020 (Xplorer) 256 KB only. My Xplorer FX Pro is detected as Winbond 29C040 (New Xplorer FX) 512 KB My Xplorer is detected as SST 29EE020 (Xplorer) 256 KB Right now i don't have the needed hardware to connect them to a PC and use XKiller. Xplorer FX / FX Professional ( 2 x SST 29LE020-200-4C-NH 256K) X-Terminator PRO DX ( 1 x Winbond W29C040P-90 512K) Xplorer FX Professional ( 1 x Winbond W29C040P-90 512K) Sweet, if you have any questions or concerns, ask me! Don't be afraid to drop a line and chat with me, or Fang! <3 I'll do my best to stay in character as much as possible.Īnd yes, I did make an actual Fang account on Facebook.I recently acquired a few Xplorer carts : When Fang is talking, or if I'm roleplaying, the lettering will be small like this. ((By the way, when you see these marks ")), ((" at the beginning and ending of a sentence, that means me, the admin of this account is talking. But, I just randomly talk to people, nowadays, and make statuses. I used to have a blog, but I've been to busy, or lazy to actually sit down and write it lately. I like to talk to people, and I do have a facebook account! So, you can also contact me on there, if you would like. I'm also known as a "bird freak." Or that's what Max refers us, too, anyway. I guess I could say I'm 15 years old, but that's just a number of years that I've been alive. <3ĪLSO I'm using Avan Jogia as a face claim for his profile pictures on Facebook, and here. ![]() If you haven't read that series, OMG, you should go read it, because it's an amazing story.
