Since i last posted I figured it out on my own.Let me tell i have modded many xbox's but this is my first xenium solderless fix ok heres what I did eject brings the os on ,I used another modded xbox and put a m816 bios in drive c then swaped harddrives and loaded the bios from c renamed the bios then set is as default now it boots fine sorry that noone could tell me that i could do that with the xenium but i guess thats what sepereates the xenium from any other mod out there even the x3 no comparison to the xenium buy the best chip out there
XENIUM ROCKS

not sure i completely understand what you did. did the os load from eject BEFORE you did the swap. if so, you should have been able to ftp the bios onto c, or e, or f, as long as the console was on and the os was loaded. lots of times when you bring up your ftp program, it will show the drives as empty. there are settings in the ftp program to fix this. but even if you dont fix it so you can see the contents, you can still drag and drop the bios into that drive. you just wont see it get there.

if this happens again, try it. after you ftp in there, reboot the box to the os again. then go to flash the bios from the drive you dropped it in and it should be there.

if i'm understanding what you said right, this could save you time from all the hotswapping.

good job on getting it to work one way or another.
