I flashed my x3 chip sucessfully with bios build 2913. (can't find latest one). Everything worked fine. I was about to install a dashboard, but decided to see what this bios had on it. It had an option for skin downloads; so I proceeded. Some of the skins worked, some did not. The last skin I attempted to download, froze the whole system up. I rebooted and now the xbox logo with "rox my box" under it is all I get. It does not proceed to the bios screen. Can I fix this? Can I wipe my chip clean and start over? I tried to flash the chip again; and the screen said success; the "rox my box" is as far as I can go. I would apreciate any help, suggestions, ect.


Thank you for your time.

What you have downloaded as a skin is stored in your E drive. Can you ftp and did you save your E drive from your original xbox hdd? I am assuming you upgraded your hdd though you may have not. If you did upgrade, simply reformat your E drive and then reinstall it via ftp. This is the fastest way. Otherwise, search through your E drive for skin files in your UDATA and TDATA sections. They will be something like 0facfac0 or something like that. It can be a pain in the ass and you have to find them in both data files. Sooo.. reformat E since you have nothing on there yet though if you do you will erase all game saves unless you have a previous backup.

Only problem is that I can not network the xbox and the pc. FlashFXP, Qwix, and Craxtion will not find the ip address. The chip will not boot to the bios. What do you guys think?
