Note: Countdown timer will be disabled if you set "Power button boot" to a TSOP bank and "Hide TSOP boot icon" is set to "Yes".

5.1.2 Quickboot

Set to "Yes" to bypass XBlast OS and boot directly to the BIOS bank specified by the "Power button boot" entry when you power ON your Xbox using the power button of the front panel.

Described in length in the XBlast Install Manual, TSOP split lets you split your 1MB TSOP via software in to 2 separate BIOS banks. Enabling this option in XBlast OS will create the necessary IconMenu entries to let you select which part of the split TSOP you wish to boot from.

Note: Toggling this entry changes available options in both "Power button boot" and "Eject button boot" entries.

5.1.6 Hide TSOP boot icon

Setting this entry to "Yes" will remove the icon in the IconMenu to boot from TSOP.
