    Hi, i'm having some issues, I've got a crystal xbox 1.6, i have done all the soldering several times and its all pretty tidy, can put some pics up if needed...? when i turn the xbox on with a very quick push, the lcd display shows the chip as disabled (red) before doing the reboot 3 times thing then green red lights etc. The chip has the 3.5v, 5v and the other flash protection light on. I have checked my soldering and cant see anything wrong with it.

    I'm suspicious of the D0 wire soldered to the pcb as it got crushed when i first shut the case, the plastic casing of the wire hasnt been broken, could this be a problem? (it was quite flat) anyway to check?

    the xbox powers up fine with the long press of the power button

    please help

    cheers

    hmm, thats sounds more like a power issue then the chip... Look at the power supply and you will see a little white round pot, you can use a screw driver to turn it either direction, mark it and then try and tweak it about 1/4 turn to the left, maybe the right, I dont recall, but it wont break anything, if no results try a 1/2 turn from the original position..

    If that does nothing, replace that D0 wire, it looks pretty pinched.
