Hi Peeps,

Thanks nospmohtkcin it seems that it means frag so will check that lob1 connection think that could be it!!

 

[nospmohtkcin]

just trying to get you to do alittle research that's all :wink: Yeah you have frag which indicates that you have a bad install. How exactly did you mess up lad1? Also what happens when you press power+eject at the same time, will the switch light turn purple?

Well I made an ass job of the soldering on Lab 1 but i thought i might have got away with it butt it seems not. I have just re soldered Lad1 and now going to re-trye fingers crossed - Should All my Dip Switches on control panel be set to off Or should one of the Banks Be Enabled?

Ok I have Now Re-soldered LAD 1 And The Chip X3 Logo Is Now Blue But all I get is a Blue Screen!!! And the Xbox lights are Amber I'm unsure if my Supplier has already flashed it or not But is there a way i can flash it and what position should Dip Switches be My Supplier Was Whitedog.co.uk if that helps......... :?:

Hey, are using the component (HDTV) converter to hook the XBOX up to your TV or are you using the standard composite (RCA) cables that came with the XBOX. I just modded my 2nd XBOX with an Xecuter 3 CE and hooked it up to my TV with the component converter. All the lights on the front switch were correct but when I turned it on (quick press of the power button), the blue light on the switch came on but there was nothing on the screen except a dark, dim maroon background. If I turned the XBOX on by holding the power button down for a second or more, the front switch turned red like it was supposed to and it would bypass the modchip and I could see the regular MS dashboard on my TV.

I pulled the composite cables out of the plastic bag that came with the XBOX and hooked the XBOX up to the TV with those and booted the bios and I could then see FLash BIOS 3.0.1 like I oughta!!!!!

Oh, BTW, my dip switches on my front were all off.
