Re-flashing bios on dead aladdin x2 Plus2.

Im not sure what went wrong but i tried to update the aladdin x2 Plus2 to the ind 5003 via Xblast  ( loaded oh hdd )

The flash appears to be successful but after a reboot i got the 3 boots and frag.    Now it appears the chip is dead.?

Thankfully i had another X2 Plus 2 and using that i can boot again 
I thought maybe i could hot-swap the chip and re-flash the bad one.  However when i pull the chip the console appears to freeze and video goes to black.   

Im running off a Hexe 0.99b11-22 heimdalls xbox engineerind disc to try and re-flash

1.6 pal xbox

Any ideas if this is possible?

I have never done this but i think its possible. Just to know,your xbox is fragging because the ind-bios is NOT compatible with 1.6 xboxes

How how Silly of me.  I see that you are correct ( I wanted to change the flubber and forgot about compatibility!! ) 

On a positive note, you can hotswap and reflash...

I just had to do the swap before i started the flash software  ( swapped at dash ) from unleash x

 

thanks
