SS_Dave Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Remove the chip and chean all the points on the chip and board that are making contact. over the years those points to the main board will have developed bad connections. Your best to post some pics as well as other problems could have occurred to the Xbox's. Cheers SS Dave Those that can Hard-Mod. Those that can't Soft-Mod.

KaosEngineer Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 Beige, you mean gold. I've seen blue, white and gold. Post a picture please. Wayback Machine's capture of the Xenium Pin Header Installation Manual and Troubleshooting guide (PDF format). Troubleshooting is not for the modchip though but Xbox error number information. Update: Xenium-OS 2.0 User Manual Xenium gold edition solderless kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS_Dave Posted February 14, 2020 Report Share Posted February 14, 2020 I would also check the D0 point. What version Xbox? This may be of help as well https://www.dropbox.com/sh/b385ehz549s9x2c/AACcBGWCELmCioyet68EwBuia?dl=0 Cheers SS Dave Those that can Hard-Mod. Those that can't Soft-Mod.

Oh well, it's a Xenium! You have one of the RGB LED boards too. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SS_Dave Posted February 17, 2020 Report Share Posted February 17, 2020 What happens if you dry and boot the Xbox without the chip? Cheers SS Dave Those that can Hard-Mod. Those that can't Soft-Mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
