I install X3 and flash bios 1957,it works fine.Atfer 2 day I flash backup bios to flashbios 3.01,but when i try to boot flash,it has blank screen but x3 1957 still can work.Then 1 day later,my xbox suddently have blank screen when i boot it.I check pin 13 & 14 it look fine but i still resoler it,it's not working. I remove the chip and my X box is still not working and led is flashing. Now I can'nt connect xbox via network and cann'nt flash new bios. So is it X3 or Xbox bad?

Xbox version: 1.6

And sorry my english is poor.

I have no idea what may have caused it to stop working with the mod if it was working before, but as for your XBOX not working even after you removed the chip, did you unlock your hard drive? You can't use it unmodded without the hard drive locked.

I did lock the hard disk and solder connection looks fine. Maybe I should buy another xbox to try!

0021 error RRoD

i found an xbox behind gamestop just sitting there. I snagged it and took home only to find out it had the 3 red rings. Someone attempted to fix it and jacked it up pretty bad. All the mobo screws were stripped, and was giving a 0021 rrod secondary code. Did the x claps fix which i did on numerous other boxes, and it didnt work. Hooked up the drive to my computer, and found out it was unflashed, so a bad flash cant be causing the 0021. Anyone know how to fix or just keep it for spare parts?

Re: 0021 error RRoD

First off, the x-clamp fix is useless. All it does is put more pressure on chips. That in time just damages them. You are basically screwing the xbox more if you just screw the heatsinks tighter than getting a professional reflow or reball, which is the only way to really fix the RROD. So get someone to either reflow or reball it.
