Having a mare day today, doing a slim and after doing several now I just solder it all before reading the nand, so I go read the nand and get "can not continue" to cut it short, after checking and rechecking all connections, I decide to desolder all the top connections leaving just the lower one's(used post qsb for the first time), and tried to start the xbox and got just, beep beep, no lights, fan nothing, so I think it must be the post qsb, now these don't come with any fixing tape, and with only needing 2 solder points I used some of my double-sided tape, now I'm a bit annoyed by this time and running late, so I think I'll lift the board and touch the solder points to release them, but this damn tape is strong and it went with a twang and took the 2 solder points with it.
I checked the qsb and found it to be ok, no sign of any bridging, so I still don't know the fault as everything looks ok(apart from the damage I did removing the qsb), I managed to put some solder in the points, and tried to start again, still the same beep beep no lights.
I searched for similar problems and found that some people damaged the resister near the nand, so I check the resistance and bam, it's in the 100's, all the others are 33, so I took one from an old phat board with the same reading, soldered it in(not straight and moved another) now all readings are around 33 ohms.
I start the xbox and I have lights, only it turnes red after a few seconds, the dvd open's and closes, the fan spins slowly, but no output and the red light.
So to sum up, the original fault was the resister(I've never had this before), but why the red light now? I've not done any repaires on slims so know nothing about them, it's possible the post_out1 and cpu_rst points could be at fault, or could the resister have done more damage?
I don't think the post_out1 will be a problem as it seems to be just a connecting point, but the cpu_rst has a trace to it, I put some solder in but not found how to check it, could these be the problem, or anything else?
Thanks.
