  1. If it's still fragging, (red/green), try to install the original ram chips, only the 4, don't do anything else until it's booting again. the console will only boot with the 64mb installed. It's very easy to fail to install the memory chips, i upgraded already 2 xboxes and as I have aladdin xblast with blast OS I could test one by one each RAM chip installed and even this way I failed several times to install some of them causing the console to frag. The ram pins are very tight together and shorting is easy, also, if you are using the hot air method, try to apply with some pliers a bit of pressure in the middle when the solder is melted and let it cool holding it, then go with a fine tip in your soldering iron, apply some flux to the chip and go along the pin, pin by pin with the tip. In the end get a tooth brush, a lot of isopropil alcool (96% or more), scrub all the flux and absorb with toiled paper. Also, with so much heating you might have caused a small crack in the PCB/traces or killed some memory chip. Don't go over 400ºC and pre-heat the surroundings first so it doesn't warp too much. good luck.
