Thanks for the replies. So having checked D0 was in the right place. (I used to be comfortable soldering, but it's been 20 years so don't feel comfortable any more in response to Bowlsnapper). It was to do with the seating of the adapter. Basically, if I press down in the bottom right hand corner lightly, it seems to engage properly and load up ok. Otherwise it does the same light pattern as below. What are my options to try and get this seated better without having to hold it down (I can't see anything that is physically blocking it from seating down)?

Hi all, dug out my old xbox original which was last booted up around 15 years or more ago to find it not working as I left it. It's an xbox original with a Xenium modchip in it (one of the ones that you push in and then have a wire that sits in one of the solder holes - picture attached). As an additional problem I can't remember a thing about how it is set up or where the wire should be or what the extension cable (which currently not connected) even does and can't find any of my old notes on it. So any/ all help very much appreciated as to how to proceed on this. Basically, when you switch it on, it currently flashes green three times then goes to a green, red, green, red repeating colour change. If I move the wire out of the hole that it was located in, then it boots into normal mode and I can set the time etc. As soon as I put the wire back to where it was, then it does the not booting and colour sequence as above. Pic attached of modchip. If more information is helpful on something specific please let me know!.
