i just flashed my friends matrix chip with the new x2 bios, and installed it.  everything went fine.  the chip is on and in the correct mode.  i burned slayers auto install to a CD-RW, but when i start up the box i get an error 16 every time.  

i did install a new untouched HD. (100gb WD)

its like the box is trying to boot from the HD, not the DVD and gets nothing so it spits out ERROR 16.

when i put the old original xbox HD back in... i see the XECUTER2 under the logo... and it boots fine.  when i have the new untouched hard drive plugged in i get red/green flash and ERROR 16.

please... been fooling with this for about 5-6 hours now.   can anyone help.   i've done about 10 xbox's for friends and
co-workers,  but i've never run into this problem before.  

thanks in advance for all your help.
