After having read about on the board, I couldn't figure out if it would be possible for me to fix this problem on my own. I have an Xecuter 3CE installed properly. My Xapt3r is installed properly, but once I install the chip, I get a triple boot with flashing green and red. I have read that this implies a TSOP problem.
The back story on my box is short and painful: I was softmodding at a friend's house, and had not finished. While I was asleep, my friend tried to finish the job. Unsigned code replaced my original files, my box bit the dust, he let me know in the morning. I tried to unlock the hard drive, using HDD unlock, but it wouldn't stay unlocked. I guess I didn't fully comprehend how to use the program.
Anyway, I see that the problem is most likely a TSOP problem, which can be fixed by "the 3 wire trick." It sounds like I need to have a softmod properly installed, so I can reflash my TSOP. I only have one Xbox, so if I can't get the box to boot up so I can install the softmod properly, what option do I have for fixing my busted TSOP?
On a related note, as I understand it, the TSOP and LPC boot methods operate seperate from one another. So in theory, should it not be booting anyway, as I have an Xecuter3 properly (as far as I can see) installed? Perhaps what I read was incorrect and they don't operate independantly per se. Any info on how to fix my problem, and any correction on my understanding of the boot sequence would be very much appreciated.
