This may sound like other posts with video issues but its not. I have an 1.6b x3ce chip installed with the lpc rebuild. Turn on with switch settings off on off off off. Flash Bios 3.03 come up. Great! So I flash changing the settings to on on off off off. (tried off on off off off combo too) After web flash successfull with 3296 v16plus xbox shuts down. I turn it on and it Starts FRAG'ing. I try the disabling by holding power and it trys bu shuts down. I hold power and eject for backup flash and it turn purple, eject amber and no video. No video no matter what I do. I have soldered and resoldered. Checked voltage. It all checks out. Move my chip to a 1.0 xbox with an xadpter, had a 2.6 chip in it, and then I get video and can boot to flash 3.01 screen. Reflash, retry in the 1.6b box and same thing.

please advise

If you've managed to flash over banks 5678 (off on off off off), then you'll need someone to reflash the chip for you as this is the only version of FlashBIOS which will work with the 1.6b.

If you're able to still boot to FlashBIOS from off on off off off, then set switches to on on off off off and reflash. I recommend using the HTTP method as flashing via CD can be a little unreliable.
