Hello...To cut a long story short....
Just did a Pin Header install on a 1.1 xbox with a x2.6 ce
Ended up fragging with chip enabled and booting with chip disabled.
(Apparently that is what its supposed to do..DOH!)
In my haste to get it going I had another go at the LPC (thinking my soldering was RS)
and end up botching the soldering as I was using Too big a tip.
I ended up bridging a couple of pins with solder.
Went to bed.
I ended up buying another iron with a nice fine tip the next day.
Got home and cleaned up the mess.
Now I turn it on and it frags with enable/disable.
I do some testing with my multimeter and find I have cut a trace.
What happens if pin5 trace was cut.
Is this the reason for the frags (two reboots,red/green)
The track is cut just above pin 2, would it be okay to use a conductive pen to fix it
or would it be best to bridge from pin 5 to that tiny little hole at the end of track 5.
All other pins/solder appear to be ok.
Thanks for your input.
