X-Ray was a c64 cracking group, likely based in Germany. Sex'n'Crime 1 (february 1989) rported, "THIS GROUP PROBABLY CONSISTS OF SOME FORMER INXS MEMBERS (TYPHUS) AND SOME OTHERS." Andre joined from Success, while TJ Lazer and Rygar both left for Lotus in december 1989.

The group's cooperation with Success ended in july 1990. Raze and Major-X joined, this was their first group. The november 1990 release Monty Python's Flying Circus +2 listed Chrysagon, Arrogance, Excellenz, Colin, Raze, Driver and Major X as members at that time. Lawyer joined from Crest, and the group went into cooperation with Transcom in december. They recruited a lot of members this month; Design/Tristar, Ignorance, Veberich and Parsons/DCS. Tyree and Excellence left the scene.

Parsons (ex DCS, new 12/90) was kicked out early in 1991. X-Ray were in cooperation with Transcom for a while, but the coop broke down in early 1991 after members of Transcom ripped off Bad Taste's mag "Bad News", slapped a Genesis Projects intro on it, filled it with aggression and harsh language towards nearly every group in the scene and spread it at the Venlo meeting in february. The early part of the year also saw the departure of swapper The Living Trashhead (LTH) for Bonzai, and the departure of Jagatan and Trigger for TRSI (though they must later have rejoined). Scooter/Trinomic and Fresh Prince joined in december. When Success was rebuilt in october, Major X left to join them.

Chrysagon (crack, 90-04/91), Ignorance (90-), Trigger, Jatagan and Elegance all left for Enigma around february 1992, which meant the death of X-Ray. Also in february, previous member Rap joined Success.

Awards;

5th best cracking group in Nitro #1 (13 december 1991).
