Installed a X3 CE chip yesterday and also an X3 Control Panel. Had a Matrix Lite chip before so removed that one and added an extra bit of pin header for the last pins. For the rest of the installation I followed Team Xecuter's instructions.
When I booted the box after installation I got into the FlashBIOS GUI. Downloaded the latest X3 BIOS (3108) and flashed via HTTP. Bank buttons 1 and 2 on the Control Panel were pushed in which should be the first 1024kb band, right? The flash succeeded and the box turned itself off.
When I now turn on the box it immediately turns itself off. I can boot to the backup BIOS (purple logo) which gets me back to FlashBIOS and also the MS BIOS (red logo). The HDD and LAN led seems to work fine. I tried to flash without any bank buttons pushed in but the same result.
What could this be? Is it my pin header soldering that could need a good check? Have I missed something fundamental? I can add that the display doesn't light up at all, but I guess it might not do that until it boots "normally".
