ok heres the deal.
i recently modded my xbox with a xecuter 2.6. i was messing with flashbios (like an idiot) and unlocked the harddrive before i flashed the chip with an alternate bios. well, i flashed the chip with an alternate bios and the flashing went well. however, when i boot up my xbox with the chip on i get a black screen after the xbox tries to boot 3 times. when i boot my xbox with my chip off i get an error 05 message. i was told in another forum that the reason for this is because the bios that i used were bad.

if i put a new chip in place of the old one, will the flashbios screen appear when i boot my xbox with the chip on?

ive been doing research and i cant find much useful information on how to use the external programmer so i'm trying to avoid using it.

thanks

Yes, so long as whatever other chip you put in has FlashBIOS on it you should be able get the FlashBIOS screen. The programmers are pretty easy to use, you can find the tutorial here - http://www.team-xecuter.com/x2prog/

one more thing, the reason that i had a problem with the last chip is that the bios were bad apparently. is there anyway to check the bios before flashing my chip? also, my xbox is a v1.6a and i have heard that flashbios v3.03 does not work with v1.6a. if my chip is equipped with flashbios 3.03, how do i downgrade to a different version? thanks
