Force Halo To Run

[Cortexian]

If your the mastermind programmer you keep telling us you are, sit down and figure it out.

The only Xbox OS that I know of is a Linux distribution. Halo runs on PC, explain more please.

If your the mastermind programmer you keep telling us you are, sit down and figure it out.Lol owned.

Well, why not open up the readme file for halo???

also, that's not mini itx it's micro atx :downs:

[Mr Buckshot]

Let him figure out his own problem. I mean, he's such a smart genius. After all, I never knew that my AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ was two physical processors! I also learned from him that "duEL" core is complete BS! And that the athlon x2 3800+ owns all duels cores and all Intels! So next time I build a PC, I must avoid duel core and go for dual core!

Kiwidoggie, I am afraid I am too technologically stupid to help you out. Please, my lordship, teach me all your tech knowledge and I might be able to help you! I can suggest the readme file though - the idiot i am, it's the only thing I understand.

by the way snafubar, mini ITX does exist, it's used in those mini PC things.

[SnaFuBAR]

ah, i'm familiar with the micro atx fulfilling that role.

Mini ITX is smaller than Micro ATX... mATX has a max size of 244 x 244 mm and mITX is 170 x 170. Either would work in an xbox case I think - mATX is a stretch... Mini ATX might fit, but I kinda doubt it. I looked into building a mITX carputer into my Ford Probe... but they're a little too expensive for my tastes.

If your problem is that Halo PC isn't running right on the PC operating platform... then you should reinstall it and see what that does for you. Clean it out with Registry Mechanic or something before reinstallation.

If you are trying to force a PC to use the xbox chipset and drive to run Halo Xbox, or trying to run Halo Xbox on a PC platform... you're probably fuxxored. And you probably also violated your EULA for both pieces of hardware, and most of the software. Congratulations. You've done something stupid and are now paying the price for it.

Don't double post. That's what the edit button is for...:eyesroll:

And what are you guys mocking him? I'm confused.

He is using a real PC - he simply put the parts for a Mini PC inside the case of an Xbox. I don't think there are any xbox parts in there any more.

Read the god damn readme file or tell us what the chipset is.

And we're mocking you because you have a tendency to make stupid untrue remarks about technology and you know nothing (the post you made about Athlon X2 processors being two physical CPUs still makes me laugh). Since you're such an "expert" at technology, we figure you can solve the problem yourself...

WAIT WHAT, you guys are loosing me,
1. its a pc in a xbox case running windows xp
2. it is MINI-ITX
3. i dont know how


Then you have a software issue with your OS... well not necessarily with the OS itself, but something's not playing nice. Try running D:\Setup.exe (or whatever your optical drive is lettered) instead of using a link as the executable. That kinda works for me when Halo doesn't launch.

"-?"

Add that to the command line, then read.

i had a xbox pc(pc in xbox case) using the mini itx board and it says it had problems with that intergrated chipset(well duh) but i had set something in the shortcut to Force it to run and it ran everything on high no problems. But i reformated and forgot that addon to the back of the shortcut. can someone tell me what it is?What says it has problems? Halo's warning pop-up?

:awesome:

Anyhow, all you really should have said was that Halo isn't booting on your PC, the fact that you threw in
Xbox PC" comments threw us all off, we need more information, why won't it run? What messages is it giving you?
