If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

exactly

Post by humanman42 »

(i posted this as its own topic on accident)

-revised-

i need a 7808, anyone got one to spare?
anyone do sheetmetal work?
i need something like a 4U rackmount server case, around that size.

--------------------

yeah, thats exactly what for.

ok, the full rundown of this project is thus.

i have hacked it down to 1 sceen, the screen will be running off one of the xbox's power supply. and you will be able to switch from xbox 1 and 2. turn the screen on and off. In the works of locating a flatscreen monitor and getting another xbox a/v cable to turn that into a vga cable.

I am going to be running Linux on 1 harddrive per xbox. The one i am getting soon is a 250gb hd (78 bucks, couldnt turn that down).

I am going to be running 1 power cord to the main thing and have everything hardwired to that. so i wont have to run 3 power cords. both xboxs and the 10 port switch.

oh yeah, if i didnt mention i am putting a switch in it to.

i need 2 more harddrive, 2 200gb's will do the trick. and 1 more X3 mod chip. then i will have all i need. well, sept something to put all this excrement in. also, their is a lot of little things i need to do. IR Mod, RF power mod, make a new power button, leds everywhere. i will draw it out or something.

I will be using it for...fun things... Taking 1 thing and having 2 of it bassicly. You have 1 xbox, well i brought 2. hacked..or not, AND A COMPUTER. i live off of shock value.

any questions, comments, wanna make fun of me, go ahead, i am bored.
