I've spent some time kicking around the forums, but appear to be running in circles, so hoping for an assist. Last month I grounded out the power supply on my 1.1 while doing a 2TB SATA upgrade. The SATA/IDE board touched the power supply as I was re-assempling the box (I left the power live like a bozo). I purchased a new power supply to find that the board was dead (non-stop frag). Purchased a previously soft modded 1.0 box, removed and cleaned up the clock cap and was able to boot to UnleashX. I'm now in day 4 of trying to install my old, previously fully functional, X3CE onto this new board. de-soldered d0, LAN, HDD wire no problem de-soldered pin header cleaned up solder in 1.0 header Installed old header back in 1.0 Connected everything up LAN/HDD lights on X3CP work great FRAG I'm running out of ideas. So far I've tried: Booting into flasbios via eject/power: FRAG Booting to softmod using power long press: works Re-soldering the pin header thrice using a continuity tester to check each header pin against this post from livefast1989: all but pin 7 check out (i think the point may be wrong) Tried booting into softmod and flashing w/ Hexen: Mfc ID 18 / Flash not writeable Booted xblastOS from softmod: Sees X3 as the chip, wont write to it via HDD or LAN I have loads of pictures of the install and all errors. Is there something I could be missing? Could I have nuked the chip when I murdered the power supply? Is there a tool to rebuilt the factory state of the x3CE?
