Xbox 1.6 frags red/green when X2.6 is -O-N-....

[caio80]

Hi there,

so:

just rebuilt the lpc bus with the 4 wires at the bottom. I'm sure about the solders, this the 7th xbox (3rd 1.6) i chipped, even tested every point with a multimeter.

Problem is, whatever I choose (bank 1-2, flash protect on/off), with the chip DISABLED xbox frags red/green after 3 shut and restarts, and there are 3 green leds and one blue lit on the front panel of the 2.6.

When the chip is -E-N-A-B-L-E-D-, just a red led on the left of the front panel lights up, and (incredible) the xbox turns on like everything is usual, no cromwell, no flashbios, no sh*t! and plays whatever disc i throw at it (original, of course...)

Damn, THIS is weird. The net is full of "my xbox frags when chip is on", but nothing when chip is OFF!!!! and anyways, when chip is ON, it actually does NOTHING that resembles the state ON!!!!

What the HE....ck...

Please, do say something that can resolve my sh*tty situation over here...

as usuall it's most likely a soldering issue... check solder and try again

p.s. i know u dont want to hear this but it's most likely the problem... unless something is physically damaged etc.

have a good day

you can check you points again as mentioned before

but also check the wires from the external switch to the chip and make sure you have good and secure connections at both ends and that none of the wires and getting pinched

try taking the chip out of the box and booting up

it is boots fine then your swtich is labelled incorrectly

would check
a. my soldering
b. my bios 1.6 requires the rite one
c. the actual wire install if you used wires and not pogo or pin header, sometimes you
will get the pic of the x3/2.6 side by side and use the WRONG ONE they are NOT THE SAME at all
