**Official Xbox 360 Jasper Hunting Thread**

My local gamestop has been out of arcade bundles for 2 weeks. They finally got some in this week and I picked one up today with the store credit I had saved up. I can see the 12V and 12.1A through the window. The lot number though is 0849X. I haven't read through all 27 pages of this thread but...

**Official Xbox 360 Jasper Hunting Thread**

I've been trying for 3 weeks to get an arcade bundle from gamestop in San Diego because I have store credit but they're always out of stock. It's not like the price dropped recently; it's been $199 for a while. Are people suddenly buying the 360 because they think the Jasper board will be free...

What is missing from my PS3 collection?

Resistance 1 and 2 Bioshock Devil May Cry 4 Rainbow Six Vegas if you like this type of game (some do, others don't) -Cheap and in my opinion underrated: Stranglehold (only 9.99) -Cheap and mediocre: Timeshift and Dark Sector (also under $10)

**Official Xbox 360 Jasper Hunting Thread**

I've read through a lot of pages of this post discussing lot numbers and amp rating. My question is, if I'm looking for an arcade bundle and the manufacture date on the box is after Nov 1, 2008 can it still NOT be a Jasper? I've seen people talk about the late october arcades still being falcon...

You can wait until the national sale tomorrow for this price but I would recommend buy it now from bestbuy.com and choose instore pickup. That way you don't have to get there early to get a copy. Or have it shipped but that'll add a few extra bucks. Link

The adapter is only $15 so even if a spend $40-50 on a decent fotran, antec, or sparkle psu, that's not too bad. Then, when i decide to buy a new computer later on, i can remove the adapter and put the psu in the new one.

Almost new harddrive performance is screwy

I think I found it: in device manager, under primary IDE channel, there is device 0 and 1. I'm assuming 0 is master hd and 1 is slave (maxtor). For device 1 it does say current transfer mode: PIO. While for device 0 it's ultra dma mode 5. What do I do to fix this? Thanks.
