hi, i hope this is in the correct forum place? :D i have fallowed this very carefully and cant figure out my next plan of action.

http://team-xecuter.com/x3/tutorials/x3pin16.htm

im sorry if im a noob to this. im not understanding what bank is what, or why i would use one bank over the other. could someone please point me in the correct direction, i love to read and learn.

1. with all switches turned off it lights up three times and stays flashing red & green with no video on screen

2. if i take the chip off the pins, the xbox will boot up fine with video.

3.hitting both buttons to power up will not make lights purple?

Sorry to be a pain in the butt! i can take pictures of anything if it will help :)

thank you ahead of time

opened second chip package and plugged everything in different X3 chip and same thing? :( :(

is this a bad solder job?

can this happen from having the wires too long?

i just fixed a thumb drive with 9 traces last week?
got the data and saved the thumb drive with a hot glue shell casing

any ideas i would be most appreciated!

here is a pick of the LPC rebuilt with shorter wires
still a no go. if i tap the power button it boots the MS xbox logo fine, red light on switch panel
should there be two blue lights on, On the chip??? 3.3 volt & 5 volt?????
i get a purple light for a second then all goes blue or red???????
