Update: I've been informed there's a bug in this version, a fix will be released shortly. Please do not use this version!!
A new version of NandPro(
info) has been released, the original cmd-line tool that allows you to read/flash the Xbox360 NAND via LTP or USB:
What's new/fixed:
* Bit settling verify feature added for LPT reading
* Add support for Jasper16a
* Improved detection for virtual nand device, fixes some problems with writing to vnand.
* Always corrects the ECC bytes (but not SPARE), even in raw mode
ie: A raw file that has been hex edited can simply be flashed with -w
* Added command line swithces
%r will read SPARE data only, 16 bytes per block
@w will write RAW file, while correcting block numbers
Can "force" a flash config on command line by appending :HexFlashConfig

Dxbx v0.1 Alpha has been released. Dxbx is a Delphi port based on Cxbx(
info), an Xbox1 Emulator for PC:
[QUOTE]
It has been a long time since the last release.. (Xmas 2008).
But now its time to show the world what has been done since the last time.
So thats why the new release 0.1 Alpha is there.
What has been fixed..
- Game logos are shown in the main form and can also be exported.
- The dll`s don`t need to be copied annymore to the game folders. ( this because of Xbe Loading ).
- No more creating exe files, we run the xbe files instead of converting the xbe to exe.
- We use our own dll files, not working with the cxbx dll`s
- XBEExplorer(info), a new tool for looking into xbe files like a PE Header viewer, then for xbe files.
- XDKTracker game list has been updated..
This are some features i can think of.. so now you can take a look also with this new setup.
REMEMBER .. THIS IS STILL ALPHA -- NO PLAYABLE STUFF --
We are still hard working on it.. and prehaps we can make a full 0.1 version..
But for now its still ALPHA !!

hi all
i have a belinea 2025 S1W monitor which is used as a second screen for my 360. the specs state a native res of 1650x1050, however the 360 picture is displayed with borders top and bottom when set to this. if i select a lower res, such as 1366x768, the picture displays full screen but has been stretched vertically to fit.
im using the MS vga cable, and it doesnt appear to be an issue with the screen as it displays fine with my pc without borders or stretching.
any ideas whats going on or how to sort this out to get a full screen display?
