I need help! i installed slayer 2.6, and it wasnt the first time iv done this. but this time i did a cold reboot, tried an application, it worked fine. then i powered off and VUALA! no video. i connected through FTP and flashed it with 3029 bios, and then i got sound but no video, when i hold the power+eject, it goes into the backup and its black and white, thats how i flashed it. BUT what DO I DO NOW?! i paid 165$ for all of this, and i feel stupid cuz i dont exactly know how to work it all, my brother and I have both been doing alot of HW, and trying to figure out different things, but no 1 on this site either doesnt know anything, or doesnt want to help! or im just not important! f00k! i want to see something out of this 165 i spend. HELP me guys, please. sorry to seem desperate. im really getting annoyed now. *sigH* :eek:

xbox 1.0 , x3 CE, Solderless - installed fine. Had trouble after installing slayer.

had black screen and FRAG.

after several hours i was able to FTP correctly and flash the 3108.

result? no FRAG. but still black screen.



OK HERES AN UPDATE!!!

A couple post ago, elsewhere on this site, i was saying i couldnt flash it. I finally was able to flash it. I disconnected the switch from the chip, made sure the chip was unprotected and flashed it with 3108.

after i flashed it, i rebooted, and nothing.

this is what happens when i hit the power.

POWER BUTTON FAST = xbox on, LCD on and it displays Xecutor 3 and my message i typed below it. the light around the eject button, is solid. I have a black screen, and theres no audio.

POWER BUTTON HELD = Sound of normal MS, no LCD(obviously), i hear menu of xbox's MS, NO VIDEO!! AUDIO ONLY!

POWER + EJECT = Goes into back up flashbios 301. I have a 160 GIG HDD and the Original. when the 160 is in it only views 33 gigs of space. thats not my problem now. but BOTH HDD work fine, and both give the same results just read.

some people were saying that they were flashing red/green. well i stopped that by flashing my bios with the 3108. but now, i cant see anything still. before i couldnt see anything now, i cant. EVEN when i REMOVE the chip, i have a black screen with the sounds of the MS.

what i dont understand is why my LCD is on, and it still has my message, G35inthe305 on it. ok? so that means i havent exactly wasted my chip. or the xbox for that matter. im trying to be relaxed and iv done alot of reading, but i cant do this alone, thats why this site is here and you guys as well. if you can relate or be of any help please feel free to post. i think i am the only ONE on this forum with this problem. i think, slayer took a shi* on me.

heres a thought, what if i format the HDD? but wait, that has nothing to do with the bios correct? after all i did switch up the HDD new and old, and had the same results.

Have you tried holding down the "White" button to boot into the bios setup screen ? Try that and see if you get any video. Also check that the jumper on your hard drive is set to Master or Cable Select, that may be why you only see 33gigs of it .

I should clarify, this is to boot into the X3 Config Live screen, which is the bios you installed. There are video settings in there, perhaps you could check them and see if its all correct.

This is a stab in the dark but, what version xbox do you have. There are 2 versions of the BIOS , one for v1.0-1.5 and one for v1.6 . Make sure you have flashed the correct BIOS.

Also, did you make an iso disk with SLayers on it, if you have a SLayers disk what happens when you boot with that ?
