when i installed my xenium ice, i just CAREFULLY adjusted the wire so that it fits in the D0 hole. Its springy so it should keep constant contact with the hole. I stress CAREFULLY. Which chip did u get? You should also clean all contact points with alcohol.
i got a alladin advance live(they work on um) also do i need to flash my x box and how do i do it? i just want to burn games on the net and play um
