This sucks. I used Evox to flash a new bios on my X-Ecuter 2.2 Lite + and now it won't boot.
Now it just flashes red/green and when I turn my chip off it says I need service.
Sooooooo. After searching several threads at other forums. I have come to find out that there are two sokutions to a bad bios or a bad flash.
First I could do a hot swap with a friends xbox. Which would be fine, if my friends had there xbox modded.
Second, I can purchase the flash tool and flash it externally.
If anyone has a better suggestion, please email me soon. _________________ "Modding the world, one xbox at a time"

Connor, again I'm sorry to hear that. I'll check around to see if I can dig up any info for you. I think the external flash tool is prolly the way to go, but then you have to wait for it to get to you. I dont know how much it costs for you chip, but for mine I think it runs at $12. I'll check into it though. _________________ XBOX v1.0:

I went ahead and ordered it. It was $13 plus shipping.
And my firend that does have a modded Xbox is letting me use his to hopefully do a hot-swap. I'll let you know how it goes. But I'll have the tool if anything screws up. _________________ "Modding the world, one xbox at a time"

The exact thing happened to me and I got that stupdi error message on the screen saying I needed service. What I ended up doing is making a boot Slayers Boot CD and then one of the options was to restore to factory default. Worked like a charm and I got my xbox back.
