    Hello I kind of have a long problem. Xbox 1.0 Spider chip 1.0. I opened the xbox desoldered the lpc holes. Went to screw the spider chip in but the screw hole is partially stripped. When I put the washer under the chip the screw will not grip. When I do not use the washer the chip does not sit right but the screw grips. Problem 2 I can only get the chip to boot when I hold the chip down at a weird angle and it only happens very rarely.

    I did the same thing with my spyderchip. The spiderchip website did admit to sending the wrong screw, but they dont include a note when they send you your wrong screw. What i did to fix the problem was I found a slightly longer but same size screw. But it was a woodscrew w. Pointy tip to actually pierce thru part of the box. Dont worry i didnt mess up my case or anything. But this is what i did and everything is well
