  1. I don't know which parts of the board I should focus on ... Therefore a full size picture ... I'm not a pro in soldering, but the journey starts before I did any soldering or replacement on the board ... Except the pinheader for the Mod Chip ... I try to fix the issue by replacing the capacitors step by step ... Ends up with the same result and Green/Red Error. The Green/Red Error is a 50/50 error ...
  2. Dear all, sorry to bother you with a maybe stupid question again, but i want to give a last try before i send the mainboard to hardware heaven. I have got a org. Xbox v1.0 times ago and I was able to set up the Box by TSOP the Box and also by installing bigger Harddisk and XBMC accordingly. All was working well for month and than the journey starts. First, the Box stops working after some time in the middle of processing. I copied some games from Samba Share to the Box. Copy process starts regularly and after 1,5h Box crashed by "no video signal" and without finishing the copy process. When the Box crashed, Box didn't reboot or didn't change the color of the LEDs. So okay ... things can happen ... So I try to switch on the Box again, disconnect from power and switch on the box again ... Green/Red error ... Shit ... Waiting for one hour, try again ... Box starts regularly. Start copy process again ... again after some time ... Box crashed. This time i was able to restart the Box directly after the crash and i check the temperature of CPU und GPU and both shows normal temperatures below 58°C. Okay, changed the power supply ... Same issues ... I changed Harddisk and DVD ROM, furthermore I was able to refresh the BIOS as well also tried another BIOS version. Furthermore, i installed a Modchip in the Box ... But no success. The 4 powerlines on the mainboard are checked as well, same for the rest of the mainboard ... all looks okay. During the next weeks the box crashes more often and much faster than before, so i decided to replace the power caps on the board ... Long story short ... no success same issue. By now the box didn't work properly ... Try to start 3 times ... than turns to Green/Red Error again. Also I replaced two other caps next to the GPU but no success ... So, now I'm lost ... Hope someone has an idea for other some other tries ;-) Thanks for all ideas and hints Kind regards
  3. Hi cdman, sound like we have nearly the same issues. My XBox was working fine (so far as I know) and than for sudden the freezes happens. I also renew the caps and i also renew the caps next to the VGA connector ... without any success. I don't have RAM Upgrade, but have v1.0 with Time cap removed. Also test different HDD (no SATA), Power supply, Cable, DVD without success. Temperature is also okay on my box (I set Fan to 100% with same issues) Did you try to just copy file from a Samba share to your xbox ?? Because this is how I can reproduce the issue. I think (personally), its related to IDE Connection, because if freezing the VGA/HDMI Signal is still on the monitor, but with black screen.
  4. Hi StealthAce and thanks for your reply. I will check the power traces for scratches and marks more intensively. First impression was fine, but I will check again. D0 Port ... hmmm, the box was virgin when I received, and the error occurs even when the box was sill unopened and sealed. So no soldering destroyed the D0 point before. I have exactly the same behavior in any methods (original, Modchip, TSOP) and with different custom bios (even noDVD Bios). Thanks !!
  5. Sorry, but I have to annoy you again... I once again bought a cheap ogxbox at a flea market. So far so good. Unfortunately, the box now has an error that I've never had before... and I don't know how to fix it either... When I turn on the box, the box starts to "pump". The LEDs flash alternately. go off and then on again. Fan stops and starts again, screen is black, hard drive is clicking and turning. After 5 - 10 seconds, the box is stable, the fan is running, but the LEDs continue to flash in all colors. Despite this, no error code is displayed even after a long period of time. When I press the eject button now, the DVD doesn't respond at all. If I then start the box via the eject button, the error pattern is the same at the beginning, but then the DVD is opened and the box then boots normally. Then I can even turn off the box completely and turn it on normally. Everything works as it should. If the box was switched off again for some time, the problem starts all over again. The box is a version 1.4 with TSOP patch, but the box also has the same quirks with modchip and original MS BIOS. I've changed pretty much everything that can be changed. IDE cable, yellow DVD cable, DVD ROM, hard disk, power supply unit ... the CPU/GPU cooling paste has also been renewed and the clock capacitor has been removed ... I don't see any signs of wear on the board, and the capacitors still look good... As always, any help or hint is appreciated... Cheers and Thanks

  9. Sorry guys for asking ... I want to do the Samsung 616 F/T Mod and i was looking for a proper Samsung Drive on ebay and other platforms ... But ..

So my stupid question ... before buying some drives that will not fit the requirement ... How can i Check and assure that the drive is a Samsung 616 F/T ... I thing (or i never found) the version mentioned on the type label .. Sorry for the stupid question ... Thanks and Cheers
  10. Many thanks for the reply !!! I really appreciate
  11. Dear all, while writing this post (sometimes its great to summarize and structure your problems in a writtenform) ... I had the Idea to start xboxdash.xbe and change the language setting their as well ... and ... Now game starts in German language mode ... without anymore changes ... Are their some xbox tools where you can read (and modify) the "Boxsettings"? I only know "Config Magic" but it doesn't show the language settings of the xbox ... Thanks
  12. Dear all, currently I'm a little bit confused and i have no clue where to search for a solution. Okay ... I prepared a xbox v1.1 with modchip (Aladdin XP), the installation is done as alwaws ... Basic Setup from DVD, then copying all the stuff via FTP from my NAS Server. So far so good. I general I would expect that every xbox I prepare would behavior like the other. But I figure out a strange behavior on one box … and really one box only (I have 5 at the moment). Okay, after copying all the things (Clean TDATA, clean (UDATA) on the HDD, I can start the box like charm, run xbmc4xbox and start “Burnout 3”. To my surprise on that dedicated xbox starts in French … On all the others xbox it starts in German. Okay, stranger, if I install the HDD from that xbox into one of the other boxed … The game starts in German language. Same if start the HDD of one of the other boxes in that strange xbox … the game starts in French. Okay, seems to be something on the Hardware, but when I check the EEPROM Settings with “ConfigMagic”, the settings on each Box are similar … Okay, exchanging the Modchip and use other Bios … Same behavior on the strange box … Burnout 3 still runs in French … As I said … Software and Games are copied from NAS to xbox and path and files are the same (copied Burnout again and again). So where to find the hidden setting, what might be a solution ?? Any hint welcome … Thanks
  13. I will try to archive my goals with your recommendations. Many thanks for your support
  14. Perfect, many thanks for the Information. Is their any chance to change the Bootorder in Softmode ?? I really not like to change the "folders" or to rename the "folders". Even i recognize that it takes a while to boot from E:\XBMX\default.xbe Thanks
  15. Hi everyone, I'm struggeling a bit with the softmod setting from OGXbox 2021 Softmode installation on my Box. Softmode installation works like charm. Afterward i used the "install single Dashbord" installer to install XBMC (to e:\xbmc as default) and i agree to use XBMC as my default dashboard. So far so pretty ... after the reboot, XMBC starts, all fine, but ... When i manuelly install xbmc-emustation (from source package) to f:\XBMC-Emustation, my box always boots up from XBMC-Emustation and not from XBMC. Same for XBMC4Gamers (f:\XBMC4Gamers). How can I change ?? Rework with Installer DVD is not working (change default dashboard). What did i miss ?? Thanks !!
