Right so the other day (with a little help from some people in these forums) I managed to complete my first CR4 install! 
all good so far...
At first I was getting 2 glitch boots, sometimes I didn't even notice it try to glitch it just seemed to boot almost straight away. And so I proceeded to tinker with the xbox, try to see just what it can do. I installed XEXMenu, FreeStyleDash and Dashlaunch which was all good fun. However I have noticed a couple of issues which I'm sure are down to my install, maybe one of the wires has a bit of a bad connection or something but...
When I try to boot xbox with DVD drive connected, boot time takes much longer. Tried switching jumper on ALT V2 QSB to 470 rather than 330 and got almost instant boot times again with DVD drive connected, however if I have ANYTHING else connected (wired controller, hard drive, usb drive, even ethernet cable!!) it tries to glitch a few times then just stops?
Similar story with the hard drive, however it simply won't boot when set to 470, but when set to 330 if JUST hard drive connected (again, not even ethernet cable plugged in just hdmi and power) I get a slightly slower boot, maybe 3 or 4 glitches...
Random things like that, but when I try tinkering around to figure out what the problem is literally everything points to CR4 drawing too much power so console is unable to boot if too much more is being powered... I read somewhere that I might be drawing too much power from GPU, but nothing more about the issue other than that, so would it be an idea to try the alternate CPU_RST point?
I am using R-JTAG+ method, CR4 XL and QSB kit with standard dip settings (all 0). All solder POINTS are perfect, however I am thinking that a wire may have frayed a little which I will be checking on after posting this. The console is a Jasper 256MB NAND (I think its 512, but J-Runner thinks is 256 so lets just go with J-Runner here lol).
Don't know what else to really mention. Xbox occasionally freezes when DVD drive is in use, but tbh I think the console did this before and I don't want DVD drive in there anyway I want to replace with internal hard drive in future hehe
