Hmmm, you might try ohming (not continuity) all points on the Demon and make sure they read 0 ohms to the onboard NAND Also ensure you have a steady 5V on the Demon.

I dont have one of those tools... but would hair or a piece of cotton from a Q-tip cause a short?

and is the GND for the USB board to the AV connector absolutely necessary? cuz it seems like its working without it

This is retarded... My points are perfect, and no, im not one of those people whose points are absolute sh*t... They really are good. The xbox booted consistently out the chassis. Then in the chassis consistently, then went put the case back on, doesnt boot.

Out of curiosity when you put it back in the chassis did you put all the screws back in then try and boot it again or did yo do them in stages??

I got a Slim off Ebay with Red dot and when i took it out the chassis it worked put it all back wouldnt work. Started putting all the screws back in section by section and discovered there was a problem with the RF board! Changed it for another one and it worked fine and the best bit was put the faulty RF board in another console and it worked fine lol

You said in the first post that you didn't get anything but a beep when you pressed the power button. Is this still the case or is in just not booting?

I turned it on with it in the chassis with no screws, then turned it on with everything put back together

Try putting the screws back in section by section. I.E. CPU screws, then try and boot it, if that works try the main bard screws and boot it again, if that works move on to the RF board that way you are isolating the problem
