I also swapped out the power supply, built a voltage regulator and powered the xbox directly off of 12 volt. I have tons of research materials and spare parts and files, so if you have any additional q’s, shoot them over.

Ya softmod a original xbox. They are solid units and really powerful for modding. You only need a memory card with the ability to copy files to it or someone who has a modded xbox already and can copy the game save crack for you to the memory card. The correct game. I used the original Mech Warrior which I found at EB Games for like $4.99. Then almost any IDE hard drive will work but there is a list of hard drives and their results from using them. ---

I used to have to use one to play burned games on mine, but it was only for some of the games. ---

Done right on a DC you don’t even need need a boot disc. This is probably the easiest system to get it working on. Download a pre-made image, burn it, play it. However genesis, and SNES emulation were not 100% if I recall. [dcemulation.com](http://dcemulation.com) is the place to go if pursue the DC route. ---
