    went back in and took the xapt3r out and solder the wire header in and does the same thing

    you either have a short between the pinheader pins or have done something else wrong.. a likely suspect is breaking the D0 line

    another cause.. and this is a real goody.. check the pins that the controller port plugs fit in to . if a pin is bent over touching another instead of going into the plug it will cause a frag XD

    happy hunting .. it's an assembly problem or a soldering problem.

    i once had a guy that had the same problem, those solderless things are really picky. you have to align it just over the d0 point. that is a pain in the ass. just give it a few more tries, it will take eventually.

    your d0 point is oke if your xbox boots without the chip. you are scre... when it also frags without the chip, then your d0 is fried.

    done away with the solder part and soldered it in instead of using the easy way and it worked perfect.

    Thanks it was a connection problem
