do you get the same problem on all banks? can you read all banks of the chip? is there anything on them? have u tried a different bios? do any of the banks still have the chameleon cromwell on? thats the only bios that will make the blue led flash when its alligned correctly.  so put it in that bios and then try to allign it a few more times.  the d0 is the connection you should check first as if the xbox is booting normally and no frag then it is the d0 that is not grounded.

thank you guys for your time, the wire that is on the Solderless Adapter I put that in the d0 hole, is that right? I got the chip flash I used my laptop ( guess it didn't like my desktop) after I flash it with 4977 bio I go to read it and it says


bios name: unknown
Flash n
Status :idle
MD5 :92987E26EDD58339
21C9V0E539EA091E

Is that what it is supposed to say? Has it flashed or not? I put it back in my Xbox and still get MS logo and then M$-Dash. I tried to realign the adapter and checked to make sure the D0 wire was in the correct hole and still no luck. Am I using the wrong programmer for the chip? I got this one off Easybuy2000. I've been reading the forums and alot of people have been sodering their chips in. Hope I don't have to do that. I don't know anything about sodering. All help is appreciated.

If u flashed a 256k version of the bios .. and u flashed bank 0 .. then the dips should all be UP Or in the OFF position ..

Whats are the symtoms of your xbox when the chip is in place ?

Don`t forget you will not get a blue LED flashing anymore .. ( blue led only flashes with the original Cham- Cromwell bios )

if you get linux clean boot screen your chameleon is working, this will show a blue flashing light.

if you flashed the chip with 4977 regular and it worked you will get the same intro as you would on normal xbox and normal dashboard as you would on normal dashboard.  The blue led will not flash.  You now insert your evox disk and boot the xbox with the disk in (cdrw burnt in udf with dick finalised on dao mode) (n.b. some cdrws work and some dont)

if you flashed and get the error and it actually did not flash correctly, your xbox will boot the sam as above but it will not boot any unofficial disks such as an evox bootdisk.  

Thus you can create this bootdisk by burning evoxdash (as default.xbe), evox.ini (configured), a skins folder, a bios folder and a dummy file of between 100 and 250mb (bigger often works best) onto a few different brands of cdrw using the burning steps as above.

if this disk boots from msdash the chip is installed,if not then it is not flashed or the d0 is not in correctly.  if you get the cromwell screen the chip has also not flashed correctly.

the switches should be on 0 for all. the xp progarmmer should show four banks when you scan and read it, then you can load the bios and select flash.  if it fails you may hav to try another pc.

i think thats all, reply if it doesnt help.

the chameleon bios is indeed the only bios to light the chip, you need cromwell 1.8 i believe to check for allignment again.

if it says ms under the xbox and green x then your problem is certainly a d0 problem - if the chip was badly flashed (yet seated correctly) you would get three reboots then a frag (flashing red and green)

please double check your solderless addaptor .. it sound alot like either d0 or pin 2 of the LPC are not making good contact ..

The do is easy to confirm

simple take a single strand of wire from the d0 point to Gnd (screw) .. this will force the xbox to look at the LPC at boot up ..if the chip is in place then it should boot from the chip, or in case of bad contact or bios FRAG .. no way should your xbox boot into the original ms bios if you are grounding the D0 manualy

give it a try and let us know

noooo, you should have all switches off on the chameleon, then flash the chameleon with a 256k copy of 4977 (good to use a colourmod just so you know its on). yes you scan, read, then load the bioses, then select write.

ok I reflash the chip with the linux Cromwell bios got them from
http://xbox-linux.so...et/download.php
I must have overwritten the origina linux bios that came  pre-flashed on the chip.

I assume you mean no luck.  So next question:

Did you make it an XISO with CraXion?

Standard ISO is NOT readable.

If you manualy grounded the D0 point and you are still booting into the MS bios/dash .. then I can promice u one of two things:
 
1. you do not have the correct D0 .. point
2. .your electrical contact to D0 is not present ..

1st things first .. get the xbox to FRAG , by grounding the D0 point with no chameleon in place ..

the worry about the rest
