I've a Xbox v1.2 - 1.5. I know you can TSOP it, but I like the options a modchip brings. So, I soldered the LPC pinheader, a wire from D0 to ground (screwhole) and a wire on the Aladdin XT PLUS2 XT 4032 chip from the BT to the other pad. Now when turning on the Xbox it FRAGs. The led on the modchip is on. When I remove the modchip (I didn`t remove the LPC header or the D0 to ground wire, only the modchip from the header) the FRAGing exists. Before I soldered the modchip, the Xbox was working fine. Some photo's from my soldering job. I also tested from the top of the board the D0 point and my meter beeps on all the screwplates, so that looks fine. Also the LPC pinheader looks good. So I'm a bit frustrated because of this issue. https://imgur.com/a/3IRniGb Above the pinheader you'll see some flux residu, I've taken care of that after the photo's. Is there a way to double check the connections from the pins and the back of the board to somewhere on the board?

I love the site, but downloading is very, very slow with ~ 600 KB/sec. I can download with 50MB/sec so it would be nice if there was more speed (or torrents).

I will solder a clock cap when I have some sparetime in the next days and see what it does.

Instead of the clock cap a wire is used temporary. Here on the forum and also on Reddit some people use this method. WIthout the Xbox wouldn`t turn on. Will try to make a photo.

A pitty no one seems to have an idea. The transistor mentioned in some other topics when a system won`t turn on is fine and also the console turns on after the leaking clock cap removal and a test wire installed. I tried some presure here and there on the board, but also that doesn`t end with video or sound output.

Hi all, I've found an Original Xbox which is a v1.6. After connecting it, it doesn`t powering on, so I opened it up and did a check of all the capacitors. The clock cap was a bit leaking, so I removed it, cleaned everything, checked all the traces on the board with a magnifier and didn`t find an issues. At this moment I use a wire instead of the clock cap (I found some topics on this forum and reddit about that). So before ordering a new clock cap I want to have the console working. The console turns on now, but no audio or video. The light around the eject button is solid green. I've no clue how to fix this.
