Raspberry Pi-based Original Xbox modchip, built using ModzvilleUSA design and populated with an RP2040-Zero or RP2040-Tiny.
ModXo is a firmware that takes advantage of the OG Xbox LPC port and the flexibility of the RP2040 microcontroller platform for running custom BIOS in your console. A custom BIOS modifies the behaviour of your OG Xbox and allows the running of unofficial applications, including images of Xbox games directly from the hard disk as well as emulators and homebrew. Please check our Xbox Modchip install service for more information about what you can do with a hard modded Original Xbox.
The Topvint Modxo modchips that are fully assembled will come with a pre-loaded BIOS that has been written for testing. Other BIOSes can be easily be written using a PC and a USB cable, and in some occasions, using the XBOX dashboard or remotely using the ethernet connections. Please check the ModXo repository for instructions on how to install a BIOS into a ModXo modchip.
Please also note that by default I am not wiring the RGB port (i.e. RGB point to the onboard LED as you can see in this picture) . If you want it wired because you are planning to run external RGB lighting in your console like LED rings etc, please make sure you make this explicit in the notes at checkout.
What’s included?
There are three options when you buy this product
- Fully populated and assembled modchip. This option includes a pin header for installation into an OG Xbox LPC port
- All components populated excluding the Raspberry Pi. This option also comes with a pin header for the installation to the LPC port. However you will need to source and solder either a Raspberry Pi Zero with pin header adapters to the ModXo PCB, or a Raspberry Pi Tiny which can be soldered directly to the board without any adapter.
- Only the PCB with no components
