Smartxxv2 My Box Turns On And Off And Frags?
« on: July 22, 2006, 05:13:00 AM »

1.6
smart v2
x5035
avalaunch
lcd screen

I just got this box back from modding today. Was playin round on it then i shut it down and went into the other room came back turned it on and it does this now. I briefly see the smart os screen then it reboots. I can also see the empy bios slot on my lcd. I can boot via eject button into original dash works just fine. I can boot the chip then immediatly press the eject button and my lcd stays lit sayin orginal bios. somebody show me the light here what is going on.

after tryin the recovery,checkin to make sure everything was still solderd under the mobo, i began checking every point that wasnt solderd by micosoft. Found that where my lcd was solderd to my chip had a tiny sliver little piece of wire laying there from the lcd solder point to the pinheader. stupid wire sliver.....happy me
