Why would you want to reinstall it?

Looks like the answer to this was not connecting D0 and cutting the LFrame trace. It worked after I did that.

I can't imagine that'll work out well for you. Even if you remove the shield on the top of the case, blocking reception like that is going to result in awful signal range. I get it's not what you're trying to accomplish, but I'd suggest getting a Raspberry Pi and attaching to the outside of the Xbox acting as your wifi source. It works great.

With help from some others, I was able to get this chip flashed a 1.6 compatible BIOS hotswapping it into a 1.0 xbox and that went well. I thought I completed the physical install of the chip into the Xbox and things went smoothly. I had an old X3 LPC rebuild board that was unused so I soldered in the pin header and used the rebuild board to rebuild the LPC. I then soldered the spot on the rebuild board marked D0 on the modchip to D0 on the rebuild board (soldered to the location on the motherboard). I go to power on the Xbox and it boots immediately if the modchip is placed on the pin header if connected to power but currently off. It boots immediately if modchip is already on the pin header and I plug in power. Both boot to MS Dash with no signs of the chip being powered on or functional. Xbox would work as stock without any issue, I"m assuming. If modchip is removed from pin header and plugged in. I have to hit power button as normal but Xbox boots up as normal. Any idea what could be causing the Xbox to auto-boot when the modchip is in place? I've run out of ideas and documentation/youtube videos/random forum posts that I've found are either gone from the internet, or a slightly different scenario rendering the info useless. I did NOT do anything with the LFrame trace.

Can't do ram upgrades on 1.6

Thanks for this, I turned my old xbox back on and wanted to replace the old 400GB IDE drive in there with someone fresh and this works perfectly!
