X3 flashing booboo, now what?

[charger]

Hey there party people....ok, I know better, but I still screwed up....long day, anyway, need your help...

I took a perfectly good X-Box with working BIOS and decided I was going to update it with the new 3294 BIOS.

I have the Pro switch by the way....anyway, I carelessly I forgot to press the buttons on the switch before I tried flashing. Now, it powers on for a sec and shuts right off....I can still get in regular mode, and I can still get to the backup flash....all off is supposed to be 2 meg flash....the BIOS file is 1 meg.....

So anyway, 've tried to fix it without success.....
I've tried reflashing
(FLASH OFF) (ON) (ON) (OFF) (OFF)
(FLASH OFF) (OFF) (ON) (OFF) (OFF)

none of it worked, exact same symptom.....powers on for a sec, then right off...what am I doing wrong??

thanks
Rob

Okay, New problem guys:

I have Xbox v1.6b & X3
My Box was in a coma state due to a Config Magic error. The EEProm had been erased.

Flashed using Cromwell unofficial 3.03
Turned box back on and saw cromwell FlashBIOS screen
Scrolled down to restore EEprom v1.6 and clicked A
Said flash was successful and turn off Xbox
Restarted box and the flubber animation started up audio and all
Then, all of a sudden,
the screen goes blank
the eject light turns to a flashing amber
then, two seconds later, the whole thing shuts off(???)

I flipped the switches to another bank to try and get back to the FlashBIOS screen and flash it with the correct Bios, but three seconds after the Blue flash bios scrren comes up, it does the same thing with the amber lights and the shutdown. So now instead of an Xbox in a coma, I have an Xbox that doesnt want to come out and play.????

HELP!!!!

Update: I left it alone while typing this message
Came back to it and started it up, it works fine
I immediately started it on the backup Bios so I could flash using the correct Bios.
Flashed flawlessly using xecuterv1.6bplus.bin and restarted
It went through the whole startup with my custom flubber colors and all
I cried a little on the inside
Then after the Xbox logo, It goes to blank screen and flashing amber again, although this time instead of turning off right away, you can't turn it off???
So I unplugged (I know) and the when I started it back up, it did the startup fine but it would lose everything after three seconds again and flash amber, not being able to stop it.

HELP SOME MORE!!!!! thanks again guys
