everything runs perfectly

modchip working

but the video cable..when i plug it in, nothing shows up. I mean, it use. It use to work alot, but now i cant see for crap.

i did a test where i turned on my xbox without the video cable and it flashed orange...so im guessing i can detect the shiznaz, but no video streaming?

: Have you made the mistake of trying to change the video mode with XBMP or similar program?.

This sounds just like the standard "Shit I have no video anymore!" issue that you will find a million active threads on.

I had a problem with video not showing up... but I was able to fix it just by wiggling the a/v connector in the back of the xbox. I think either my cable or xbox connector is damaged or loose.

oh well... as long as it works, I'm happy. sorta

If you switch your xbox to NTSC-J you need the Enigmah Videomode switcher software (look for it via mIRC on xbins. You need a FTP program to). Extract the E.V.S. file, add a dummyfile of 50-100MB renaming to 1.bin. Make a Iso of the files (with simpleX) and burn to a cd-rw with Nero (burn image). Boot the XBOX with this cd, wait for 15 seconds and press A for PAL and B for NTSC-M. Reboot the XBOX and you have your picture back. If this is not working theres something wrong with the image you burned (wrong files or wrongly burned).

Short story (pardon my English, I'm dutch):

I flashed my Tsop with the Jamesbond/Mechwarrior hack. The xbox workt like a dream for 2 weeks.
One day I switch the xbox on and there was sound but NO picture. I started to worry that the bios was corrupted by MS because I notice the day before that the original dashboard had the xbox live option added by itself. Only after reading for hours on diferent forums I rememberd that I indeed switch the video in XBMP the night before. So many people with the same problem. Only my'n was a bit wors. I had no FTP and the box rebooted itself constantly (you coult see by a flikkering image every 5 or so seconds on the TV and the leds on the network switch going on and off). I spoke to some 'experts' and they all tought the xbox was a gonner. Even a modchip won't work was there comment. After finally finding the videomode switcher files I made the bootable cdrw with the files and popt it in the xbox. The xbox read the dame thing and after pressing the A button (dutch=PAL) I'll switched the xbox off. By rebooting the picture was back and everyting was normale again. In other words....keep trying. I know I did for 3 days.
