Bank 1 Bank 2...no work for you

Hello, I have been at this for two days after work and it is time to post for some help.

The Xbox has a 2.6 in it. It worked at one time but froze and now here is where I stand.

When the switch is on Bank 1 it gets to the Xbox screen with Xecuter2. It dims slightly and then stops. It never goes any further....

When the switch is on Bank 2 it goes to Flash Bios 3.03 with all the options to flash the bios. I have tried flashing a 256Kb 4977, a 512kb 4978.3. I can ever get the make1mb.bat to stay on the screen to make a 1mb file.
-- It seems to take the attempt at flashing as the screen says it is flashing and then once the bar goes across the box shuts down. On restart though I get the same issue with either bank on.

Any pointers? Do I need to find a 1mb file? Is my chip bad? Anything?

Thanks, 7r1

Okay, I found a copy of XBTool and made a 1mb bios file. It seem to take the flash as now Bank 2 does the same thing as Bank 1. Gets the XBox screen w/Xecuter2 at the bottom and then dims slightly.

I am starting think I have a hard drive issue.

Got it. Burned the latest Slayer and Bingo! It is rebuilding now. More to come if it does not work.

I love posting to myself. It really promotes clear thought.
