ya im really proud of this. Took forever to paint the faceplate and everything. The only thigng that went wrong in doing this is now when i try to play a game, the dvd drive thinks its a dvd movie and will give me an error. IDK WTF is wrong, but only 35$ for a new drive anyways so no biggie. Other than that I still have a few more things I want to do like put a thermometer dispay in to show temp of cpu, gpu and the inside temp overall..anyone know where I can get one that does that?

Dude dont buy a new drive.  Its where you painted your cover.  You need to calibrate it.  Google it and I think it will help.

Also could you make a tutorial on the leds inside the dvd drive.

Thanks

edit:  I found a link on how to calibrate it.  See if this helps.  http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=517961 (http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=517961)

It not hard to put leds under the dvd drive you just drill holes from the bottom casing and place them in those whole im sure they wont get in the way of anything.

To follow up on the drive not reading my games....I totaly did not know I had to clone my last drive with it...yes i had a toshiba drive and then traded it out in my other 360 for the Samsung...problem solved lol.....

and then for the led in the drive: All it did was wire up a blue 3mm led to the 5v power with the proper resistor betwean it. I didn't even drill a hole either to put it in.. I just glued it in place out of site right by the window and made it so the wire would go between the top and side walls of the drive..I used 30 gauge knar wire btw. 

all ways try to go around things and make it clean then go through them...ALL WAYS! :yess:


EDIT 1~

Nice mod but I prefer rounded corners for the window mod.
Title: Re: My finished 360!!!
Post by: redrider on March 24, 2009, 12:59:43 AM
ya me to...But the reason I didn't do them rounded is bc I first cut a square for the tailismoon window kit(didn't like it at all lol), so after that I couldn't really make them rounded so I just made the cut a bit bigger and put in the window. I'm going to make it rounded on my other 360. Planning on doing a cool theme for it to.

thanks for the comments guys! It was alot of work but it turned out better than I though it would. Mastapsp did some sanding for the windows so thanks goes out to him for that. He was pretty amazed when it was all done. after it was done I taught him how to solder LED's which is why you see that psp in the first pic lol. he did ok.

And yes the slim mod is taking forever due to shipping issues and school but all I really need to do is put it together and test it out. Will be done soon. again check my psp thread for those updates.
