what alternate are you referring too? and yes if theres a alternate place to solder a D0 point, it would repair it.. how did you break the trace?

well u know how there's 2 d0 points on the v1.2? well, i was gonna use the one on the bottom but i accidentally burnt the trace which interrupted the traces...i was using a 15watt soldering iron but....anywayz i completely removed the chip and tried to power on the xbox but still got the "christmas lights"....so i pretty much narrowed it down to the traces causing the problems...tried to repair the traces but with no luck...so i put the chip back on and used the alternate d0 point and got the chip to light up but in the end i still had the "christmas lights"....tnink maybe a pc repair shop could repair the broken traces or would it be cheaper to buy a new box??? thanx for the reply

You could attempt a repair between the start and end points of the D0, then use the top one if you'd rather not use the bottom as thats where repairs would take place. But remember to be very careful unless your just gonna buy a new xbox/mobo, then just mess with it a little while and see what happens. _________________ Hotswap Tutorial|FTP Tutorial|HyperX Flashing Tutorial
