I have an old "chip" that is just a chip and some PCB for the wires with no
names but the chip has:
SST
49LF020
33-4C-NH
0234066-A
one of the wires has come off so I would like to softmod this Version 1.0? xbox (has fan on GPU and daughter board for controllers) but if I removed the chip do I do the softmod the usual way with SID5.11? Can SID5.11 be used on a Version 1.0 if not can a xbox V1.0 be softmodded at all? What would be the advantages in keeping this old chip if I somehow put all the wires where they need to be as I like softmodding from past xbox's. Here is a pic of the chip:
I removed the SST chip and did a softmod successfully I dont know what was on this chip but so far the boot up is till good so the bios was probably unchanged _________________ Xbox Halo Green Limited Edition v1.4

Yeah do the softmod, of course 1.0's can be softed. And then get something nice on that TSOP!
The only soft/hard obstruction that I can remember is 1.6's can be softed but you cannot flash the TSOP, so you have to chip for a custom BIOS. Not a huge deal since there are some pretty stable softies, you still get to choose your dash with a soft and 1.6's don't have extra RAM slots.
I have to mention though, I don't really see the purpose of that SST wired to your LPC. If it's literally a flash module without some kind of IC controller like a Lattice ISP Mach chip it won't even feed the BIOS on the flash to the CPU. So if there even was a BIOS on that module at some point it isn't legible the way the flash is connected. Are there any components on the bottom side of the 'chip'? _________________ 320GB ST3320620A 7200RPM 16MB Cache

I dont know much about TSOPing but when I removed the chip and wires there was only wires from the chip to the LPC on the CPU and GPU side of the motherboard so there was nothing underneath I was wrapped the softmod worked so well but I have no idea what the chip had on it or what it did to the system beforehand maybe it was only activated when the open DVD tray button was pressed to power it on which I didnt think of at the time to try but I remember when I used the power button it booted everything as normal but the dash version was very low and mustn't of been updated or used with xbox live for aeons. If you like Admiral I can post the chip to you and see if you have a use for it and I wrote down the wires location on the LPC and the chip PCB. _________________ Xbox Halo Green Limited Edition v1.4

As long as you have UnleashX on your HDD somewhere in the C or E partition, a working DVD drive, and compatible DVD-R's you can use HeXEn to TSOP flash anything but a 1.6. You will have to either inject your own BIOS and/or config into the flasher folders and copy their MD5/hash ID's into the registries if you want something that isn't included on the disc, but that sounds more complex than it is.
Alright, I'll take you up on the post offer. I can pop that flash module into an Alladin XT and see what is on it. Just message me for my post info if you are still interested. _________________ 320GB ST3320620A 7200RPM 16MB Cache

Looks like a Cheapmod design no extra logic required other than the SST49LF020 (256KB) Flash Memory chip.
As the 1.0 can be softmodded, I'd take the chip off and use Rocky5's Xbox Softmodding Tool Build 1.1.2, USB thumb drive and one of the 4 original games supported:
Splinter Cell - Original or Platinum Hits
007 Agent Under Fire - Original or proper Platinum hits as there are 2
MechAssualt - Original only
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4 - Original and not sure if Platinum Hits will work or not
