Hi,

the box was up and running for a week or so,
but suddenly when I was about to play a divx movie, it froze and the blue light in front of the x3 switch dissapeard?
Now I cant boot the x3 (cant get into bios), Only microsoft dash and there is no light in front on the x3 switch!!

Check your soldering points, maybe one of those isn't making contact anymore.

Semms a little weird, no shake or anything on the box, just happend.

You may not have had to shake or move your xbox. The problem with electronic components is that they heat up when you use your xbox and cool down when you switch off. This, in turn, stresses the solder joints and if one of your joints was a little iffy they it may have just let go now. Simple re-solder of the joints should sort this if that is the problem. Start with the pin head joints before messing with the D0 (as you know, this one is best left alone if it is ok).

So is this the process ?

I have a benq drive with 1.61 do i have to use an activte disc, if so where do i get one. What are waves and how do they effect the burning process, and is stelth possible on my current fw ?

Re: So is this the process ?

1.61 will play wave 4/5/6. so no you dont need an ctivate disc. i wouldnt even use 1.61 though, id turn it off and wait for benq lt which should hopefully be out in the next month or so. 1.61 is detectable so it could get you banned regardless of the game you play. just hold tight for lt.
