    Hi
    I have just gone to turn on my xbox with my modchip enabled (i have an xecuter 3, has been working perfectly until now)and nothing comes up on screen, and the eject LED doesnt light up.

    If i try to boot up without the modchip it goes through the flubber movie and then it says on screen that i need to contact customer support.

    Things i have tried:
    I have tried making sure my mod chip is sitting on the pin header straight-not it

    I have tried pushing in all the IDE cables to make sure they havent come out-not it

    And the last thing i did to fix it was taking out my 200GB HDD and putting the orifional back in-doesnts work with or without chip.

    Somebody PLEASE HELP ME, I NEED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hey david, are you positive that your d0 connection has not come unsoldered. Although normally this would make your machine frag, it's worth a try to check it.

    well from what you say that you were using it fine but now its not working ..... so you must have flashed the bios and installed a dash ... are you sure that the chip has not come out of place

    i opened up my box and checked all the connection and they all seemed ok to me the chip was still fitting ok when i opened it. after i closed it erased my evox dashboard cuz i was gonna install Avalaunch or unleash x i alredy have all the unleashx and avaluanch files on my comp that i got from xbins but how do i install em to my xbox i gott ftp them right? and i think the problem with my xbox turning off when i try to boot my xbox with the chip enabled was because i probably flashed with a wrong bios.

    yeah i think it was the wrong bios or you never flashed all the banks so i take it your chip is now flashed ....? you'll need to burn the avalunch and unleash and then install the dash from the cd use a good cd-rw or dvd-r and then choose to install it
