Since This is mostly a Gaming community, maybe someone can help me with this:

I bought a Xbox 360 off of modChipCentral dot com.
I got the package, and to my surprise, i got a falcon Xbox 360. But the power supply is for a Jasper...
Falcon Xbox needs: 175W, 14.2A, 12V
Jasper Supply Gives: 150W,12.1A, 12V

Can anyone help me?
I'm tired of waiting for things to get shipped...
Also i live on a farm so i cant go to a EB or w/e to get one in like the next month...

Well here i go again on my own, the only road I've ever known.

Buy the more powerful power supply maybe?
I'm not really sure what you're asking us for, you want us to buy it for you and come deliver it?

No, i was more asking if there is any possible alternative, like take a computer power cords and adapt it to xbox through some funky dark magic ritual... or sumthing along those lines...

The power supply generates the power, a different cord isn't going to magically make it output more power, you need a new power supply.

Well like if you opened it up and short circuited it a certain way would it be possible to do that?

Yes, frying some internal circuitry might do the trick.

So you want to know how to make a 150W power supply generate 175W without ordering extra parts? Yup, voiding the warranty and destroying some circuits would do the trick. Go for it. In fact, just take a large hammer and bash it around a bit, should scare some electricity into it.
