I recently bought a couple of xbox's to build a slimbox media centre , i case already cut down and another complete to swap the guts over. I was told by the seller that it possibly had a bad bios flash but now that i have dis assembled it i find it has been chipped. When i boot using the eject button i get a blue screen then an error 6 message, booting with the power button i get no video at all. I tried switching the chip switch but it didnt seem to change anything, just wondering where to go from here to restore video output ?

The easiest solution would be to just install a new clean Duo X2. The chip switch is for bank0 and bank1, if both are messed up then it's best just to get a new modchip.

But before you do check if all the connections are solid, specially the d0.

I know nothing about modchips so it mat be the easiest solution, do they come preflashed or will i need to flash it myself ?

The Duo X2 GS Cromwell comes with Flashbios on one bank and on bank0 is a Linux cromwell bios, I flashed both with different bios. The blue Duo X 2 comes with M8 and Flashbios as far as I know.

This is a good guide:
