Cosmonaut Cartilag Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 SO when I turn it on, it starts and stops a few times before it finally gets going and then when it does I get no image or sound and the light just flashes red and green. At first I thought it was my IDE adapter on my new hard drive, but when I replaced the unnamed brand one with a startech it still did it. To be clear, my xbox DOES work if I keep fucking with the power button and I can play games normally (Have not extensively tested to see if it randomly shuts off or anything after a long period of time. Anyone know what the problem could be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted June 22, 2020 Report Share Posted June 22, 2020 I would triple check all the connections to do with the modchip and have a look for solder splashes. I you can post some pics of the chip install that would help. Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

This wasnt a problem that occured until after I replaced the IDE cable and HDD so im uncertain if that would be the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it with the old stock drive/cable I've noticed however my mod chip no longer lights up? Think I got a bad one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS_Dave Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 It sounds like bad solder joints and more so on a version 1.6 because of the LPC repair.

SS_Dave Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 That chip in my view is solid as a rock and the only time I have seen faulty one's is from a bad flash. How is the D0 point connected ? Is it grounded on the bottom or has the LFRAME trace been cut like this? Can you post a pic of the bottom of the main board around where the LPC port is.

SS_Dave Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 That looks ok all that leaves is the solder work for the LPC rebuild.

SS_Dave Posted June 23, 2020 Report Share Posted June 23, 2020 The solder joint in the red circles look suspect and I would resolder all of them Also because you have cut the LFRAME trace you don't need the D0 grounded on the bottom Cheers SS Dave Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmonaut Cartilag Posted June 24, 2020 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2020 Seems to be starting fine now, thanks man! Removed the four you marked as well as one that seemed a little tall along with the unnecessary one you pointed out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
