No, i couldn't solder it.  I'm almost certain i would get it everywhere.

What do you do when you have cleaned all the connections with alcohol, scraped and scraped and scraped on the d0 hole, got the wire in there real secure.... and it still boots to the ms dash?

you throw the mofo out the window and be done with it

heh, just answered my own question

The rivets are useless.  If you can't get it alligned I highly suggest having it soldered.

I can get it aligned.... its a pos adapter... I think i'm going to order an older one with softer springs.

Honestly I wouldn't invest another penny in adapters.  I'd return the sp adapter if possible or sell it in the bst forums and just use the money to have someone solder it in for you.  Then you will haev no problems what so ever.

I used to have a 1.5, but I sold It it a friend. Also I meant take a qtip and soak one tip in rubbing alcohol (squeeze out a little so it doesn't mop the mofo... err mobo) the clean the lpc ports with the tip that was soaked in the rubbing alcohol. Just stroak it back and fourth on the holes even if the look clean. Mine did the same thing as yours but worked after that.

That's why I only recommend buying from ppl on the official resellers list, and if your in america, theres no reason not to order from bmmods, he's the best reseller of all.  Theres tons of installers on these boards (myself included) so I'm sure you will have no problems finding one near you.  I wouldn't trust anyone who has never done xboxs before.
