Gentlemen, I crossed the Rubicon
Adding the MakeMHZ HDMI+ mod to OG Xbox. It’s the 1.0 motherboard version. The other mods are Stellar+ but I misplaced the ribbon cable and I’m patiently waiting for the replacement to arrive in the mail. Hopefully it will arrive tomorrow and I can finish this project…. For now:)
Pictures are what they are and I have a microscope 🔬 to check the solder joints. Had to repair a trace as well.
Lessons learned, I opted for the destructive method on the AV port and I will not be doing that again 😬.
That said, I have a retrotink 5X and hindsight is 20/20. Everything else has been super basic and I’d probably skip the hd mod since I already have the upscaler.
