Only use that if you have a 1.6/b/c Xbox!

Use the normal X3 bios if you have a 1.0-1.5 Xbox,

Also check youre switch bank is pluged in right and that the switches are set to the first 1MB bank.

If it is a 1.6/b/c your Xbox make sure your alt 5v source is soldered right.

now i cant even get a picture, i push the power and it turns on the off then on then off then on and the led flashed red and i get no picture, and the switch shows that the chip isnt activated, but when i boot the regular xbox bios up it works jus fine, is this fixable or did i royally mess up.     oh and when i press both the power and eject button i doesnt restart the bank or boot up normally or anything.  i probably really messed up.

You won't get a picture yet on this bank, becasue you possible flashed the wrong bios to your xbox.

Check you xbox version here.

Only use the X3 v16 bios if u have a v1.6/b/c xbox as alread mentioned above

You need to boot up from the back up bios in order to reflash the main bios (banks 1-4)

To boot from back-up bios - hold eject & power for couple of secs.

when flashing correct bios, make sure you do not flash the backup bios, but the main bios again.
