  1. OK. Thanks Guys. My xbox is working again! I guess i have to search for some xbmc updates etc. And how to up the resolution to HD.
  2. Okay, i think i get it now - hopefully. D0 on the chip Just says where the cable needs to go, not what it is ... And the point labled D0 on the Chip is actually ground?
  3. OK, now i'm confused. The mainboard and the modchip have D0 points and both should be connected to ground?
  4. Hi Dave, thanks for your quick reply. You'recorrect. D0 wasn't connected as i opened my xbox. But i used the alternative ground, which you mentionend, to reconnect it. I fitted this modchip years ago and followed the provided instructions. D0 was soldered to on of the IDE-pins which should be ground as well. My problem is that with D0 connected to ground, the xbox only starts as a regular xbox. Starting it, as you suggest, leads mostly to the same result. Sometimes it seems to try to boot from the Chip but instead it restarts in regular xbox mode. My next move would be to resolder the chip like you showed in your last picture. But i would assume, the chip should also work with D0 connected to ground, if it is still working correctly. This behaviour might also be related to bad solder Points/connections? Nonetheless it's good to know D0 needs to be linked to ground. I hope my english is good enough that you guys can understand my problem. If sonething is unclear please Just say it and will try to clearify it.
  5. Hey guys, I just found this forum googling for an instruction for my modchip. Probably 14 years ago i installed this modchip and it worked fine for years. A few years ago after i moved i wanted to use my xbox again and it dind't work at all. So today I atemped another try. I reconed a loose cable which supposedly needed to be connectet to ground, which i did. Now the Xbox does boot the original bios. I can see my copied music and game saves. Trying to start it with pressing the power button for 2 seconds sometime leeds to atempt to start in whatever bios is installed on the modchip, but it restarts in the original bios. Nevertheless the LED on the modchip does light up on start. Do you have an idea how to get it to boot up with the modchip or a procedure to test if the modchip itself is actually working? Maybe you can point me to thread i missed.
