    I just installed Xenium SPI.C.E and am having a few problems.

    i get all the lights to light up right before i put the xenium chip on and then the third light shuts off. When I power up the xbox
    it flashes Yellow/Green/Red, then yellow for about 2-3 secs and then green/yellow/yellow/yellow/yellow....etc.

    Any ideas???


    Thanks

    btw...i haven't put the DVD or HD back in yet...

    In case an LED does not illuminate, gently push
    corresponding tip of problem wire in order to seat
    it properly in the through hole
    (HINT: If the wire is sitting outside through hole
    by pushing the tip you should hear a click.)
    Repeat power test to ensure all five LED’s
    illuminate
    Before proceeding ensure the box is powered
    down and power cable removed
    Plug in the Xenium power up and have fun :)
    Note: When the Xenium is active the LED
    indicated by the red arrow should be off

    ok, all 5 lights lit up before i put the xenium on. As soon as i put the Xenium on, the Xenium lit up and the 3rd LED turned off.

    ???


    And when i take the Xenium off and the 5 LEDs are lit, the xbox works fine.

    ??

    Try to clean the LPC port with qtips and rubbing alcoholto make good contacts.If it still doesn't work, you can use one of the rivet that came with the package to ensure good contacts.The second light from the left(away from the xenium chip)should be off when you plug in the xenium chip and the xenium chip should be lit when it's active.
