Hi all, ive been pulling by brians out and searching the net in hopes i can find a tutorial to put my nand back to stock.

I was following the video guide to installing the coolrunner, i have managed to dump my nand twice and the compare came back with no errors;)

However upon trying to boot the xbox the red light on the coolrunner lights up, but the xbox fails to turn on, no power what so ever. Now ive read that it could be a bad ecc image to the nand so i want to revert back to stock to see if i can get the xbox to boot, ive removed the cool runner and check the solder points for any bridges and it all seem fine. ive used good old google and the search tab at the top of the forum and cant seem to find any guides.

Thanks

I usually use jtag tool and click advanced options.
click main and select your device (usb or lpt) then click nand and write bin, then select your orig nand dump and your good to go.

sounds like a stupid question but gotta ask. Is the board plugged into power supply? are you using a nand-x? If answers are yes then i'd double check ALL your solder points. I would guess that the not booting problem is the stby_clk solder point but that's just my 2 cents worth:rolleyes2:

Also what did you use to read the nand?

The freeboot message is fine in jtag tool when your done writing NAND.

Looking for USB device means your computer is not finding the USB device. Has nothing to do with connection to board. Look in device manager and make sure it's showing up. Did you do any soldering while it was plugged in. Switch out usb cables and try resetting NAND x.

Also try reinstalling drivers.

Are you using a NAND-X with v3 code, if so jtag tool doesn't work. So just use nandpro and write on of your nand reads back to the console.

I didn't know that it was updated to work with v3 code, so if that works then disregard my message.

FYI - you get this message in NANDPro v3 when the NAND-x can't talk to the southbridge. It used to be only when your USB device wasn't connected.

If you've incorrectly flashed the wrong SMC to your console, you'll need to to a 'bad flash' recovery on it first, erase the SMC (nandpro usb: -e16 0 1) and you should be ok after that.
