hey guys,
just bought another 360 after not having one for a while,
it's already been flashed.
how do i find out what version's on it?
what's the best way of playing back ups without being banned from live??
havn't connected it to live yet as wanted to make sure first, but i'd like to download a few things from the marketplace like trials etc..
thanks

2 ways, either dump the firmware and check it (best way for a definitive answer.), or play a copy of a newish game. if it plays fine, its either the unstealth firmwares or the new lite touch.

put the lite touch firmware on it and check all your games through something like abgx360.

There is no definitive way for you to know if you have LT firmware on or not without dumping the drive.

What drive is it?

Yeh but LT firmware is the latest and safest to use online, you can get 1.61 firmware that will play all wave games, but it's not safe to use online.

That will only work for BenQ and samsungs.

For liteons you'll also need a CK3 Probe + connectivity kit.

for hitachi's you'll need a VIA chipset. Thumbs Up
