XBOX HOLES ALREADY SOLDERED??

I received my mod chip today and when i got the xbox apart and everything I noticed that the holes where my adapter is suppose to go already has some silver in it. I dont know what to do

 

A little more info would help i.e what mod chip, what version xbox what instructions are you using ?

 

well I have a xecuter 2.6 ce and i was going to use the solderless adapter. i have a v1.0 and I just found out that 1.0s are the only ones that come with the solder already in it. Now I have to get them desoldered. Im tired of spending money just to get this stuff right. If it aint one thing its another

 

you can do two things:
1. go to radio shack and buy some solder braid and desolder the holes
2. go to a electronic part shop and buy a 1/32 drill bit and drill new small holes

I would go with option 2, fast and easy.

cheers

 

do I need something else to go with the solder braid?

 

Christ don't drill the lpc holes!!! Insane.

Get the braid or I would recommend the solder pump. The reason they are filled is because you have a 1.0 ver xbox. The solder pump works good for these. You just hold the board up sideways, heat one side of the whole and suck the solder out of the other.

 

i defintely wasnt going to drill the holes. but ill try the other method... I've had the worse luck tryin to get this mod chip stuff right
