i just installed x3 on my xbox 1.6 mobo. a quick tap on the power button lights up both leds but after a few seconds xbox shuts off and restarts again. It does that 3 times, on and off, on and off, then, the " x " LED stays blue but FRAG's. A long tap on the xbox boots from the original MS bios ( thats ok) and If I power up the xbox holding the eject and power button to boot from the backup ROM it boots up to the flash bios 3.1.0 . What do I do now???? and after I flashed it with the bios 1959 v16 plus. How will I proceed?. What button will I push to get the xbox running? Thank you for your help

update on this post. I booted from the back up ROM and flash my xbox 1.6b with bios 1959 v16plus and it went through. I was very happy. I rebooted and now I have a blank TV picture. No video and no sound. I rechecked my solder on points 13 and 14 and 1. remelt and add more solder, still no boot to x3 setup. Just a blank screen. Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Oh Ice Cream... just be nice and say that the X3_1959.bin is for 1.0 - 1.5 ers and the X3_1959_v16plus.bin is for 1.6 & (b).

Although it doesn't seem like that's his problem. He mentions both. in his original posts.

I'm still voting on soldering issues.
