i recently found my xbox that i had likee 4 years ago and it got put into storage so when i tried to start it up it worked and has an xbmc version from 05' how do i go about updating pretty much all the software on my xbox. it was tsop flashed years ago not much done to it. i was hoping there is already like a compiled disk that will do that for me.
thanks in advance

You want to start from scratch, basically nothing from a build of XBMC that old is compatible today. There's a guide in the wiki for doing this. As for the other SW on there, see xbox-scene.com, that stuff is OT here.

192.168.0.3 is the default I.P. for the xbox once it is modded.
But XBMC can get one automatically if the network settings are set to get it from DHCP.

I would not, unless you really really want to.
Just install XBMC in another directory (do not overwrite the 05 version) and point to it afterwards (depending on your preferred boot order/method).
