XBOX 1.4 won't erase bios

Recommended Posts

XBOX 1.4 board, ST bios chip. Bridged the usual two points. HDD was dead, so installed Jafar chip and tried to lock another HDD but failed. So booted IND bios from Jafar, run Hexen 2021 and tried to flash onboard bios. It seemed to work but when rebooted the console it still had the stock bios.

 

Tried another HDD which managed to lock to the board using Xblast by booting from Jafar, booted Hexen disc from the soft modded HDD and tried to flash bios but gets stuck trying to erase the bios and nothing happens. Rebooted, then ran xblast OS from the hexen disc and tried Net Flash but again gets stuck.

Redid the two boints on the board and re-checked, they're defenitly bridged. At this point I'm at a loss to why it won't flash the bios. Board has some signs of corresion.

Might be a good idea to post some pics of the 2 links on the board

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

Here are some pics of the points, I'm sure its not the points. I redid them at least twice and also tested with multimeter between all the points and there's continuity.
