Halo Green XBOX - Modification & Repair

This Halo Green Original Xbox came in not booting. The CPU capacitors had leaked, and the clock capacitor had leaked too. We brought it back to life, then upgraded it:

  • Replaced the leaking CPU capacitors, which were stopping the console from booting
  • Removed the clock capacitor, a well-known leak risk that the console doesn't need
  • Installed a ModXO running PrometheOS and Cerbios, with a pin header and a D0-ET board so D0 is permanently grounded
  • Fresh thermal paste and an MCPX heatsink to keep temperatures down and prevent heat-related failures

The result is a working, modded console that's ready for another 20 years.
