I have a v1.1 with an Xecuter 3 chipand original HD...all was fine til this week I tried to go into my file manager and it kept freezing. I then tried to boot up without the chip and it fragged with an error message, but now when I try it flashes red and no error screen. This is weird cuz i've gone into the original msDash before and it worked fine. But it does work fine when the Xecuter chip is on, i can play games and save and play off my HD. I'm new at this so could someone please help? I haven't opened it back up yet to check the solder job but like i said it did work fine til this week.
