hope someone can help me out with this one: a while back I flashed an xbox for a friend of a friend, it went perfectly well, and they've been using it, but now there's a problem - apparently the guy lent the box to his neighbour, and when he got it back it just acts like there's a bad tsop in there, ie resets twice then the red/green flashing, however in this case it also makes a horrible beeping noise, with the beep dying off almost as soon as it starts, it sounds really pitiful.  anyone experienced this before? god knows what these guys have done to the box (they swear they didn't mess about with it), but is a chip likely to fix it?

thanks for any insight/advice on this one  B)

well the beeping is most likely the hard drive

id say the TSOP is shot, maybe they tried to reflash it or something, if its a 1.0/1.1 try booting form each bank individually, if its a later versions youll need a chip

LPC mod to get it booting and working (just cant remove or disable the chip)

29 wire mod to fix the TSOP

i agree with vader.. oh and if you do get the oppertunity of havin your xbox setup and flashed correctly again.. when done flashing disable the points, remove solder..

It s sounds like its not passing the p.o.s.t test just like a pc. but i could be wrong just an idea....
