Hi

Anyone got any ideas on how to fix this?

Ive got a 1.6 Box and an Xecuter 2.6 chip using a xapter solderless adapter. All the connections were fine and it booted to the flash screen. Heres the problem, I picked up the wrong bios disk, and flashed it with the 24981 version by accident not the 5035. Now the xbox powers up twice then frags red/green

I've checked the chip on another box which is a 1.4 and it works fine. Ive also tried hotswapping the other chip from the 1.4 board, and it still frags.

And I have tried changing from bank 1 to 2

Someone mentioned elsewhere that I can reflash the chip on another board, however the only other board I have access to at the moment is a 1.1 if I reflash the chip on this board with the correct bios, am I likely to screw this machine up?

Do a search on the forum for how to hot swap for reflashing the BIOS. Do make sure that your xbox is v1.6 for FlasBIOS 3.0.1. xbox v1.6b and later should use 3.0.3 as per recommendation by xecuter.

Thanks for everyones help with this, I've now sorted it.

Unfortunately both banks had been written to, so I couldnt flash the chip with either of the bios mentioned.

What I did was put the chip onto the 1.4 version xbox the used the slayers auto installer cd to flash the bios with the M8 bios for the 1.6. Then just put the chip back onto the 1.6, and viola one fixed xbox!

You still don't have the right bios on there. M8 is junk. You should reflash with X2 5035 if you want a good, stable bios.
