Bad Bios Flash

Any LPC mod will get your machine working again. Enigmah is no good, because it patches the built-in firmware which would need to be a working original (4034 or 3944, I believe).

I believe the Enigmah Beta patched it.  Enigmah Final replaced it.  In any case, an LPC mod is a much better route, if you have the choice.

Matrix might be a little hard to align with a fragging box but possible.  There are also some tutorials on Xbox-Scene.com 's tutorial sections on using a Matrix to recover from a bad TSOP flash.

As for the Enighmah, I'm pretty sure they all just patched.

You could also build a homebrew chip to boot from, this will allow you to reflash your TSOP.
