Question?
Do you have the 5V wire plugged in?
Are you solder point secure?
Check then double check your solder points!

Another quick question?

Yes m8 im using the 1959 bios

But as you no i had to flash it using my older xbox which im sure is flashbios 3.01.


Still dont explain the switch not working tho or do you think this is the problem ?

Again thx for your help m8

Do u have both blue LED on the X3 lighting up when plugged into your 1.6b?

Do the LAN and HD led light up on the switch?

I have got the same problem with my 1.6 and X3. I installed it ok and it was working perfectly for about 2 weeks. Flashed the BIOS ok, setup a dashboard and configured some games. Rebooted it after changing the CD and the chip didn't load. Now when I press the power button the control panel doesn't light up and it boots the standard MS bios.

I have dismantled it and resoldered all the points and I am happy that they are all making good contact (made a good job of it initially). The blue LED on the chip glows happily but it doesn't seem to load. I have been told it may be a problem with the chip getting power but if the LED is lighting up then it must be.

Any ideas?

Two benq drives-one stock and one flashed?!

I wanted to know if i could possibly do this. i want to have one benq drive stock for when i play a game like cod online and have the other benq drive flashed for when i want to play a copy offline. i was looking on ebay and they sell benq drives cheap. does anyone know if i could jus swap out drives when ever i want to do this? thanks

yeah you could

but you would obviously flash in the keys from your original drive into the new one
