Hi, I've installed heaps and heaps of chips in xbox's over the last 2 years but this one has me stumped.

It is a V1.6 xbox

Without a chip : no video, no audio, no eject, boots flashing green led then solid green led
 
With chip : no video, no audio, no eject, boots flashing green then frags


I've tried 3 chips, re-done the LPC wiring twice and as far as I can tell, D0 traces look fine (although if you can show me where the start of D0 trace is and where the end is... that would make it much easier to test!!)

I can't see any solder splashes where they shouldn't be.

I've tried a chip with an embedded eeprom in case it was an eeprom problem : same as above "with chip"

Anything to try, any suggestions as to what it could be or any questions for more information, welcomed!

thanks xboxscene

If you can, try boot it with another psu without dvd and hdd. Some 1.6 psu's have problems after some time what i could saw it few times. And my console just was exactly like you (so no audio/video etc), so maybe here is your problem!
