I installed my X3 a few days ago and everything was working fine. Then today I powered it up and was getting ready to play a little HALO and the panel LEDS went out. I searched this site for some answers and checked all my solder points and all were good. I put everything back together and powered up the box and still no LEDS and I got red/green flashing. So I checked everything again and took a look at the chip and as it turns out one of the resisters burned up. I still get all LEDS on, on the chip but the box just won't do anything, so I'm guessing the chip is toast, unfortunately. I just don't understand how it can all be fine and then the chip just burns up, I just thought that these chips were better quality then this. Can any one point me in any direction as to what might have happened and if there is anything that I can do about getting another chip, besides the obvious, buying another chip. If it comes down to it I will but I would hope that they last more then a few days, money doesn't grow on trees as we all know.
