    it gives u error 5 because your hdd isnt locked, so without ur chip on the xbox notices that, and wont boot.

    thats the hdd error...


    as for the blinking green? it JUST blinks green, or green and red, and how far into the boot sequence do u get? and your chip boot properly?

    turn ur chip back on, and tell me if u can get back into xenium OS, if so, try and relock the HDD. if so, what happens, if not, what error?

    thnx for taking your time to reply
    With the chip turned on it blinks green always and the xenium os screen is not visible. With the chip disabled it blinks green and red all the time and gives error 5. (hd unlocked) but since i can't see the xenium os menu i can't lock it again? could it be the chip?

    u know what 0s you have? anything before OS 2.0 had a hanging boot issue where u would blink green, and not see picture, that sounds like ur issue. upgrade ur OS..

    naw the hdd is fine. its jus an os conflict. dont sweat it, ull figure it out.

    as for upgrading the os....if u cant ftp, access the OS..

    sad to say it, but u might be better of using the manual recovery switch on the chip, and re-flashing it. that will get ur box working again, and is the easist solution right now as long as u know how to flash.

    tommorow? i will keep an eye out 4 you in this thread.

    and as for senior member..its the more posts he help in, the more active and helful you are, the more your (newbie) rating goes up

    The chip has a switch on the side I put the switch to the top, the chip led went red and the xbox led kept blinking red. I pushed the lever toward the bottom(it says E)and the chips led booted green(correct)The xbox light kept blinking green and the xenium os screen is not visible. And when the chip is off the xbox obviously gives error 5. which im not woried about.I have pics if you need them

    before i go any farther...

    you have tried turning the xbox on by using the Eject option right?

    and u got a black screen?

    as for the flashing of the chip, lemme see if i cant find u an easy step by step walkthrough to make sure u did it all correctly.

    but when u turn it on by the eject button...it jus blinks green?
