Master chief is confused.....

its an lpc problem if there isn't any POWER getting to the chip  wink.gif

probably a dry joint...

I think I have a dry joint but I can still load Xenium OS and Recovery Mode...

It's just that when the Xbox is cool, it won't load X2 BIOS!  sad.gif

Today, I resoldered everythign for the fourth time, and to my amazement, it now works perfectly!!!  Thanks for the advice guys! And to anyone who has a similar problem, all I can say is check and re-check all your solder points very carefully!
