Hi

I tried to update my dash but my little boy was crawling around the room and knocked my 360,, now it wont boot,, just sits with one red light on doing nothing,,,

i made a back up before it all went pear shaped,,

is it possible to save my 360 or is it dead,,

i still have my nand x and i have the flashdump.bin file,,

but my head is in bits..

am i screwed or it it salvageable :(

and if it is repairable,, can i have step by step instructions,, i am stupid :(

Every xbox 360, if its not physically mashed into pieces is repairable. I'd suggest searching around the forums for the 1ROD (ring of death) fix. Try to disconnect and reconnect everything. If that doesn't work, a Xclamp fix might be required.

By the way, if you put an xbox 360 vertically, there is more of a chance of something is to happen to it.

No offense to anyone, but most of the time the X-clamp fix causes more damage in the long run because it usually warps the board and or chip. Most fixes I have seen witht he X-clamp look like this. There is a VERY small tolorance and even with rrod kits I think it's risky in my opinion. A good fix if its a chip problem is a proper reflow or reball. I you cannot get it to work and that is indeed what it is then I recommend you reflow or reball it, or pay someone to do it for you if need be :)

i am mow running dash 2.0.13599.0 is that the one before the new style dash,, i dont much like the new style dash,, so if i can keep the one i have got running now i am just going to keep it :)

Yay get me,, fixed it all by myself :)
