i recapped the entire foxlink psu with rubycon caps of the exact uf needed. i also purchased a delta psu to see if the different brand would change anything and it did not. i recapped the entire motherboard except for about 5 of the 22uf caps. i used rubycon on everything except the five in front of the processors. i used 5 nichicon polymer caps there. i soldered a wire to each screw hole of the psu and soldered one wire to the metal outer shell and one to a screw hole on the motherboard(to make sure it was all grounded well). i also recently tried disconnecting the power cables from the dvd drive and harddrive to see if those caused any issues. there was no change. i have an open xenuim chip on it and on a 1.6v. i also have the same bioses on both(evo and cerbios). the 1.6 has a perfectly clear and crisp pic. it is flawless when i boot with cerbios. but i just cannot get rid of the interference on the 1.1v. i'm using the xedusa+ hdmi adapter. i have already tried exchanging it for another one and have the exact same problem. i also have the official microsoft hd pack and have tried it and still get interference on it. about the only thing that does not give me interference is a monster xbox hd cable but, i do not like the color display when i use that cable. the interference on the xedusa is usually in the form of diagonal or vertical lines that run across the screen during 480p output. 720p and 1080i seem to be fine. any and all tips and help is appreciated! even a good educated guess would be appreciated! oh, and i also have the same problems with unmodified 1.0 xboxs.

Hi guys, I was previously using a set of third party component cables, but I was getting a lot of interference (faint wavy lines, etc). I made a set of component cables using an official Xbox av cable and an official Xbox 360 component cable, as detailed in the tutorial section of this site. The picture quality is now much better, however, I'm still getting distortions in the video - several glitchy horizontal lines, but always at the same locations. The same distortion was also there when using the third party cables (albeit with a lot of interference too), so I'm not sure if it's a problem with the cables or with the console. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had similar issues and knows what caused them. A video of the distortion is shown here: Cheers

Hello everyone! This is my first post, so apologies if it’s formatted incorrectly. I’m currently having a tough time trying to diagnose what could be causing my Xbox to output a wobbly video signal as seen here. I’ve tried -swapping power supplies -replacing the 5 caps near the cpu -giving the board and console a deep clean I’m thinking maybe it’s a grounding issue? Or perhaps the video encoding chip is about to die? Honestly I’m at a loss. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you guys.

i'm using the official xbox HD adapter and high quality component cables but i always get interference. anybody know why and a way to fix it?
