  1. Done, check my previous post in this topic thread.
  2. When the modchip was installed, did you have it set for always ON mode? BT wired to ground and a wire soldered between the D0 connection on the modchip to the D0 point on the motherboard. Aladdin XT plus 2's available come with Evox M8+ preflashed. You should see the purple Evo-X shield in the upper left-hand corner of the screen during the flubber animation. However, you never see the flubber animation... so...hmm Make sure there are no random solder bits anywhere on the motherboard especially between pins of the 4 RAM chips - 2 on top and 2 on bottom side.
  3. BLUE WIRE You could see what happens when removed. However, I think it has to be there as the upper 512KB of the TSOP was messed up when the TSOP was flashed. YELLOW WIRE I'd remove the Yellow wire too as it didn't fix the problem xbox-hq.com's info was attempting to fix. Where to go from here Install a pin header to install a modchip. Don't use the Quicksolder method. It is so hard to remove the modchip when installing that way.
  4. Trace the analog DAC outputs to the input of the filter/amp op-amp and/or the analog AVIP outputs back to the filter/amp output. WM9709 pin 16 Line_Out_Left and pin 17 Line_out_Right. Line_out_right gets to pin 3 and line_out_left to pin 5 of the op-amp after each passing through a capacitor and a couple of resistors. The op-amp, an LM358 IC, used in the filter/amp outputs are pin 1 Right, pin 7 Left but there's more circuitry after the op-amp output to capacitively couple the audio outputs to the AVIP connector and possibly passes through some ESD protection.
  5. Welcome fellow ogXbox enthusiast. Keep on moddin', KaosEngineer
  6. Red/Orange flashing RAM error. Not exactly sure about adding the wire to restore LRESET#. Was there any damage to traces around the LPC Debug Port? Xbox v1.0's LPC debug port header feed-thrus were all filled with solder no modchip had to be installed before for this to be. It's the norm for 1.0 motherboards. The blue wire looks like an address line connection to divide the TSOP into smaller banks. I'll have to track down the image that shows the location of address lines on the motherboard. The end of the capacitor where it attaches to at 0V (ground). The other end is probably A19. So, this connection forces that particular address line to a logic 0. Update: Here's the image and link to the Wayback Machine's capture of the Xbox-scene's 4-way TSOP Split tutorial. (And, a eurasia.nu post on why to not do this mod.) With A19 forced low, only the lower 512KB of the 1MB TSOP can be accessed. Since the TSOP points are soldered, the previous modder must have botched the flash of the upper 512KB, only a 512KB dot bin file was flashed but was not resized by the flashing software to fit the entire 1MB chip, and by forcing A19 low the first 512KB is accessed to boot the console which fixed their problem.
  7. Here's the split 7z archive from TiZ: https://mega.nz/#F!5SpQhSiK!HdyKDJ0KQjDu-krCYKgYaQ Download both files to the same folder on your PC and open the first part - Auto-Installer.Deluxe.v4.53.Xbox-Hq.7z.001 with 7-Zip to extract the contents stored in both parts.
  8. Click Start new topic button to create a new thread and post your query there. Home > Software > Installation Discs or under Home > Original Xbox Modding Forum > Softmods I'll post a link there once done. Update: I see you have asked about AID 4.53 in a different topic thread ... doh!
  9. The latest version of Chimp 261812 is available from Rocky5's github repository: https://github.com/Rocky5/Chimp261812/
  10. Can be a problem on the switchboard mounted in the front panel too. Verify operation of the button closure grounding the signal. http://diy.sickmods.net/Tutorials/Xbox1/Power-Eject_Pinouts/ The RED (power) line at the motherboard resistor network should go from +Vcc when the button is not pressed to 0Vdc when pressed.
  11. Do you have an AV adapter cable to check the optical digital audio output? The audio comes from the MCPX chip and is sent to a WM9709 audio DAC to a low-pass filter to the AVIP port pins 2 Right Audio out and 4 Right Audio ground along with pins 3 Left Audio out and 5 Left Audio ground. Trace back the signal paths of these output signals to the Filter/Amplifier Coupling Network then back to the WM9709 Audio DAC. Search for datasheets to determine each pin's function of each integrated circuit (IC) used along the audio output paths - left and right. I'm assuming both channels are out, correct? If so, a loss of the clock to load data from the MCPX's digital audio outputs into the audio DAC for conversion to analog audio will cease.
  12. Check for continuity of the power control signal trace from the front panel connector to the PIC processor. If that thin trace is cracked/corroded/broken, the Xbox will not power on as the signal never reaches the System Management Controller (SMC) to tell the power supply to power up all the voltage rails. I can't make out those 4 traces in your picture as they are so thin.
  13. Look at: http://diy.sickmods.net/Tutorials/Xbox1/Power-Eject_Pinouts/ for information on the function of the power and eject buttons on the front panel.
  14. I'll get a message to CB-Games with your suggestions. I know he's working on more preview videos but those were not listed.
  15. Psyko_chewbacca created a newer tsop_m7.bin recovery BIOS. Original was tsop_d6.bin. Here's a forum thread about "XBOX CLASSIC RECOVER TSOP in BAD FLASH" 29-wire EPROM install. (In Italian - google translate it or use Chrome to translate the webpage.) and the thread "1.0-1.5 TSOP recover BIOS: tsop_m7.bin" with info on and tsop_m7.bin attachment to download it at assemblergames.com.
  16. If you extract the content, then create an XISO image with Qwix. Burn the disc image to DVD-R media. You should then be able to browse the content on the DVD when loaded in the tray. Copy the files from the D drive (DVD) to the skins folder in use by your UnleashX dashboard.
  17. It's a simple Cheapmod-based modchip. It uses an SST49LF020 256KB (020 - 2,048 Mbit) flash with LPC-interface. Which specific modchip it is is hard to tell, Many were created all around the globe from "dead bug-style" mounted to printed circuit boards with or without a socket, installation by wires to LPC debug port (as your's), quicksolder castellations, or pin header. Some could be reflashed in the Xbox while others could not be. The flash memory chip had to be removed from the socket and flashed with an external programmer then re-installed in the socket to update the BIOS. Design: www.warmcat.com - pages no longer there but have been archived here - http://www.eurasia.nu/mirrors/warmcat.com/milksop/cheapmod.html Which kernel version is in use? (There are several versions of the Xecuter 2 BIOS.) What replacement dashboard is running?
  18. Can you boot a Hexen 2018 disc? Did you have a backup of the E drive (game saves) or was there anything there important to you that you don't want to lose? If not, rebuild the C and E partitions then re-softmod the system. If they were, well. things are a bit harder. Did you have a backup of the eeprom.bin saved to your PC? Best to start a new topic in the Original Xbox Repair forum instead of discussing here.
  19. 2TB Efficiently, reasonably, easily across multiple replacement dashboards.
  20. Check your solder joints many look bad. See: Adafruit's Common Soldering Problems for comparison to good and bad solder joints. It's working, Eureka! Guess I needed to read all the posts first. Why the MS Dashboard? Where's the replacement dashboard isn't it in the modchip's BIOS? NO! Until you install a replacement dashboard the console's hard drive your modded Xbox will still boot into the original MS Dashboard. The modchip allows you to run unsigned code and load backups burned to DVD-R media. You'll need an installation disc like Hexen 2018 to install a replacement dashboard: UnleashX, XBMC4Xbox, Evoxdash, etc. Forlorn Penguin's 2018 update to Hexen 2017.
  21. What LAN LED's ground? When you had the pin header's 12 pins installed at the wrong end of the LPC Debug port did you plugged the modchip onto the pin header and power on the console? If you did, it's possible that killed the modchip. LPC Debug Port Pi n Layout Name Pin Pin Name SERIRQ (v1.0) 16 15 3.3V SDA 14 13 SCL GND 12 11 LAD0 LAD1 10 9 3.3V LAD2 8 7 LAD3 5V 6 5 LRESET# No Connection 4 3 LFRAME# GND 2 1 LCLK
  22. Does XBPartitioner v1.3 display an error message that LBA48 support is not found? At the top of XBPartitioner's main screen, what version of LBA48 patch is displayed?
  23. Welcome! Mod it or lose it, KaosEngineer P.S. v1.0-1.5 Xbox's need the clock cap removed and call for "Clean up on aisle 7 sector G".
  24. Welcome to ogXbox.com. Keep it retro, KaosEngineer
