i opened up my xbox and noticed this modchip and was wondering if it would be causing my issue. 

it will attempt to power on 3 times and on that third time it will start flashing orange and red.

Pretty sure that's a RAM failure and you gotta start replacing chips to find out which one it is.

Not the modchip itself but the person that installed it may have caused damage to a trace on the top of the motherboard now underneath the modchip and pin header inside of the LPC Debug port's outlined area.  A trace there carries a logic signal to the RAM to enable it on startup.  If the signal is not reaching the RAM chips to enable them - red/orange flashing eject ring.
