Help with New X3.....error message

[kyle21603]

ALright, I just got my new premodded xbox today. So please be understanding if I sound like an idiot because I have no idea what I'm doing. I've search this website for over an hour now and still cant figure stuff out. I attempted to flash the bios by following the instructions on teamxecuter.com but i guess i screwed up somewhere. I made it all the way through the flashing process and the xbox turned off like it said it was susposed to. When I turned it back on I got the "Need Service Screen" and it was 05 error message which has to do with have an unlocked hard drive. What am I susposed to do? If someone can give me some detailed instructions it would be helpful. Please. THANKS!

you just need to lock the harddrive you can do this with the x3 bio's

ALright, well whenever I turn the box on while the chip is on it flashes on then turns off, then flashes on and just sits there till the light turns amber colored. What does that mean?

when you press the power and eject button at startup what happens? you should see the bio's screen again. also what file did you flash with?

u probably flashed it with the wrong bios, i did this the first time too, make sure u use the x3 bios and not some other bios

ALright, I figured out how to get back to the Flashbios screen and I tried to reflash it with the basic X3 Flash and it went through everything fine until I tried to turn it back on....it still turns on, off, on, off, on then blank screen. I read on here about the 13 and 14 pin or something?

if it is still turning on and off i doubt it is 13/14 pins it is probly the the bio's you are using is not correct for your xbox version, file 1959 is for 1.0 to 1.5 1959v16plus is for 1.6 and 1.6b if it is a new box (check the date on bottom) it is probly a 1.6 or 1.6b.

try setting your switch's to the bank where you flashed the bios.
like off, on, off, off. or on, on, off, off.
