I need some help, my XBOX was working fine untill a recent error while uploading a game it got halfway through then the power cut out and when i got to turn the xbox on again it just turns on then off then on then off then on and stays on with nothing but a black screen, so i thought it was the bios, i flashed the bios and the same thing keeps happening. if i turn the chip off it loads alright but with it on it gives me problems. i checked the solder points, all good, i unplugged the HDD to see if that was a problem and still same thing. idk what to do. also when it stays on it flashes green+red witch means a bios or chip error.



Xbox Specs:

Chip: Xecuter 3
HDD: 200 GB Maxtor
Xbox Version: idr soz.

Welcome to the HQ. Very Happy

Sounds like the DO point got disconnected or you bank select has changed, so try switching your banks and see if you can at least get the flash BIOS screen to come up.

That blue screen that tells you to flash your BIOS is BIOS 3.0.3, you need like the X-3 3039.bin to get going.

Have you ever flashed the bios on it before? It sounds like maybe you have either flashed the bios badly, or the chip isn't hooked up right.

You sure the DO wire is on or in the right spot?

As wes said it sounds like the D0 wire isn't soldered right. If it was then you would at least be getting some fragging.

Yes wes I have installed a few of the x3 chips and never had a problem it's not the d0 point I promise you that. I just think I need the programmer for the chip. Otherwise it's useless. Am I right?

Have you tried booting up while you hold down the white button and what color is the X on your bank select switch?

Well I feel stupid. The bank selector is damaged. Looks like it took a direct impact with something heavy. The second dip switch is pulled off the board. And look like someone halfassd tried to fix it. Anyone know where to get a replacement? Btw it's an x2.
