Xbox - Xblast Aladdin XT Plus 2 w/ 1mb Cpld Upgraded chip for OGXbox

UPDATED TO SUPPORT THE NEW 1.6 RAM MOD

With the modern batches of Aladdin Modchips coming with SST chips that can't be flashed, an upgraded Xblast aladdin is much better option. 

With an Xblast Aladdin you'll have access to 3 different boot options

• 1x 512kb bank
• 1x 256kb bank
• The Xbox's onboard Tsop (Retail)

An xblast aladdin is a mighty fine alternative to chips like the OpenXenium. With this chip you can backup your Eeprom, Format a Hard drive, Flash Bios over Network ect. 

The Xblast also has a very nice feature of being able to test a 128mb ram install. When you're running Xblast you're able to install a Ram chip at a time and the console will still boot if it's installed properly which is not the case with other modchips. Having a spare Xblast modchip on hand for 128mb ram installs is quite nice if you're going to be doing multiple.

DISCLAIMERS / INSTALL

Each chip is tested before shipping. For installation on a 1.0-1.5 you simply install the chip as normal and tie D0 from the modchip to the D0 point on the Xbox. DO NOT TIE BT TO GND, this is not needed for xblast aladdins. For 1.6 you need to rebuild the LPC port. From there you can tie D0 to ground. D0 on Aladdins have a reputation for being wonky from time to time. If you wired D0 from the xbox to the D0 pad on the modchip and it's not working then just wire d0 on the xbox mainboard directly to any ground on the xbox. I personally like to use the screw holes for ground.
