Your going to have to solder a little bit better than that before it will work.
Also it seems the chip is not mounted correctly it should start at the side nearess to the controller ports and the last 4 holes near the eeprom chip should not be used.

http://www.xbox-scen...es/lpc-diag.php
Look at this diagram the chip should start on the end labeled #1 and there should not be places on the chip for #3 and #5 they are skipped as well as of course the space that there is no hole.

The solder when applied needs to suck threw both sides of the hole. On some of your joints you soldered this looked to be not done.
As well as the outside of the hole the "ring" must still be intact if it is not the board will not have connection from one side to the other and it will frag.

Do you have a multimeter?
If you dont you need one this will allow you to test for shorts and measure voltages.

Are you talking about I need to have solder on top of the pin header to?I am confused at that part..

Also the d0 point is wrong in the picture rite? I need to move the d0 down 1 pad? Am i correct with that?

The solder is not connected to the LPC on most of the points. You can clearly see it from the pictures.
Unless you practice first and get a better soldering iron you are not going to get this to work.
Yes the D0 is on the wrong point. should be

 On a brighter not the last 2 pictures are better.
You also need to hope your connections to the mobo were as bad when you had the pin header in the wrong holes or you could have damaged the chip and the motherboard.
 You also have a bit to go before you get to the famous worst I have seen

Do a bit more on the spare board and post pics. it will be obvious when you are ready to get the pinheader soldered in right.

Your pin header is in the wrong position and you are putting the Duox backward.

You will be lucky if you haven't fried it or your motherboard!

The bank switch should be above the outside edge of the motherboard.

Good Luck!!

OMG i feel soo dum... I had the chip install the work way. I flip the chip and it lit up nice and brightly biggrin.gif  Now i just have to resolder my d0 on an everything should be good to go smile.gif  Geez it too me long enough to figure this out but i guess everybody has to start from somewere cool.gif

Quick question.. Didnt want to make an new thread for this.. When i am solder the pens on the lpc i am wondering if the pins touch like when i am soldering them is that bad? Do i need to remove that for the pens dont touch solder? And another question is do i need to add solder to the top of the pens also. Or is on the bottom just fine? Because when i installed the chip i had to move the chip to get it to power. So I am not getting a good connection sad.gif

Green and orange is an av error.You got the av cables plugged in? If so try another set.

solder splash or broken trace. My guess is you damaged something on the lpc because thats the area you have been working in. I would use a multimeter and check your voltages using this diagram as a referance

http://www.xbox-scen...es/lpc-diag.php

If something is wrong with the traces this will show you where those points connect to.If worse comes to worse And you need to jump as trace you can attach jumper wires using this as a referance

http://forums.xbox-s...p;#entry4298782


Or you have dropped solder on the board and have shorted something so inspect the board.

Before you get hasty with the soldering iron try to get more practice.

Ok i will inspect the board 2morrow. But I really dont think i burnt a trace on the lpc because its looks fine really it does. i will take a few snap shots of it 2morrow when i post a update. I did a quick inspection today and i didnt see nothing. but idk i will look again 2morrow.

You have trashed the LPC again. Clearly you have removed every single annular ring on the LPC, barring 4.
Example up by C701. the short piece of print track..what is it going to connect to? There is no ring left on the LPC connection. The same applies to the others.
So far you have chosen to ignore the advice I have given and indeed some of the others in here.
You have now wrecked 2 boards. How many are you going to ruin before you look in the modchip installers section and get someone to do this for you?
The fact you don't even see the damage, put the chip on backwards, the LPC in the wrong holes and the D0 on the wrong point says it all. You didn't get one thing right about the install.
Let somebody else do it next time.
Harsh? Yes!! but you are not getting the message and in the end it's costing you money. I hope some of the other posters give you the truth as it may make you follow the right path to having a modded box again.

He is right.You need a much better grasp of whats going on to be able to complete this mod successfully.You also need to have much better soldering skills to attempt to do this mod which will take much more practice for you to do it correctly.And until you have these skills it would be in your best interest to stay away from any mobos
Chancer is the thread starter of the modchip in question did you not see his name on the top of the  pinned topic in the forum section you used to install the chip?

Chancer himself could do the work for you if you sent to the UK if he still does work.I would send to him myself if I needed work I could not do.Based on the knowledge of what Ive read from what he has posted he is the authority on modchip and smd rework.
