I am deployed for the military and this is the only forum I can get into. Here is my problem I have a xenium ice installed (soldered in) on a xbox v1.0 it has worked for about 8 months and then all of the sudden out of no where the xbox just stopped working when I boot up it shuts down then try's to restart 3 times then I get a flashing red and green (frag) on the eject button I took the chip out and it boots up to the original xbox dash where the time screen is with out issue. Also I tried booting up into the recovery mode of the xenium and it just says loading and the eject light flashes orange but never loads.I then opened the xbox up and booted the xbox when doing so the light on the xenium is red. First off can anyone help me with a fix? (ie: do I need a new xenium ice) and second question is if Ireplace the chip will all my info on the hdd be lost or will it just work again? Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sounds like you may need a replacement Xenium ICE. You can order one here: http://www.xbox-modchips.com/xenium.htm and they ship to APO and FPO addresses Also if you replace the chip you WILL NOT LOOSE any data on the hard drive. The only time you would loose data is if you reformatted the system, which you would not need to do at all! If you have anymore questions please contact me.
