this is 1.6 and not 1.6b right? 1.6 uses flashbios 3.0.1 or less and 1.6b uses 3.0.3 to flash properly. Second, make sure to use bios for v1.6/1.6b xboxes.

Flash-protect?
make sure u have the little switch on the x3 chip set to flash enable (if its a CE then u should have a red light on it)
Also try flashing with no switch attached...(unplug the bank selector at the x3)
