What Version of Xbox do I Have?

Step by Step Xbox Version Detection

 

Step by Step Xbox Version Detection

 

Please make sure you follow this tutorial from the beginning:

 

  • There's no visual method to distinguish a v1.4 from a v1.5. Xbox v1.5 has power and ground disconnected from LPC. So you will have to measure if pin 2 (ground) on the LPC-bus is connected to the ground plane (a screw, for example).

Please Note: you will probably have a version 1.4 because not many 1.5 versions were made.

  • First locate the LPC area on your Xbox main circuit board, it is in the same position for all versions.

LPC Power Test

 
  • Use a multimeter to check if pin2 (yellow point on image) is connected with ground (screw plate for example).

You have a Version 1.5
