    So it starts up, then starts blinking in an amber color. Is your video cable connect correctly? On http://www.llamma.com/xbox/ he said that once he had this same problem and this is why...

    "I currently have an Xbox that displays this error when connected to the standard composite video cable but boots fine when connected to a RF adapter cord."

    Try checking over your solder points again and make sure to desolder everything very well.

    hahah, sorry I couldn't help you out more man!

    Leaving the pinheaders in will not do any damage, and your Xbox will still boot up fine with it in.

    So let me get this straight now, is your Xbox doing the 3x reboot and then showing christmas lights or just nothing at all? If it is showing christmas lights, it's not quite dead yet. We could maybe try and dig into your problem a little further if you would like to try and spare $150 on a new Xbox....

    the v1.6-v1.6b. I'll get one at a pawnshop about 80-60 $ any ways if i get alot disc error's i'll just switch the dvd drivers with a toshiba the best dvd driver that came out the for xbox.
