Hi All!

Is there anyone, who met 1.0 MOBO, what was painted with green paint on many places on motherboard?
I try to chipping it, and flashing, but not work. Is it 'debug' MOBO?

Please help, if you have any information about it.

Another problem is, I don't have the HDD waht was released with it.

I dont understand what exactly what your asking but all xbox motherboards are green.

I know u dont have a HDD. Can you tell us what bios chip is on it?

Also if it is just the motherboard then REMEMBER you need the correct version of the power supply for the M/B
You cant just add any'ol PSU to it.

Tell us some more

I try again

so. yes, all of xbox mobo are green. but it is a green mobo with GREEN PAINTED on some places. DVD socket and HDD socket painted some places too. It is "signed for" anything, but I don't know why.
Usually I can flash or chipping an 1.0 xbox everytime, but this one I can't.

look like spray paint to me. whoever you bought it from was painting a case or something and put some there. whats the name of the tsop chip ? I dont think there is any "debug board" or anything. if you dont have the stock drive, I'd say you try installing a chip and make sure all wires are soldered properly.

okay, maybe there aren't any debug mobo

BUT!
My friend and I try to to chipping same as this, but never worked. All wires were correct, chip worked any other xboxes. But not in this type of xbox...
TSOP is ST type. I know, I can flash it. but...

Check for any broken traces on the motherboard,also when you turn on the xbox do you get any video at all.And I can say thats not a debug motherboard at all.Its just a retail V1.0 motherboard.

Traces are good everywhere, I chechked all soldered point with measure, but chip not work

another problem, I don't have the retail HDD, and I can't make a softmod on it and flash...

What does it say on your Nvida chip on the motherboard.
MCPX X2 or MCPX X3

MCPX-X3

another answer: I got some video signal, I see normal boot sequence, but it is end with call service pic, but there aren't any code of error...

I am pretty positive it is kernel revision 3944, which doesnt show any error codes. When you do install a chip do you get a frag or just doesnt respond to the chip at all like its not even installed?

a video about boot sequence
video without chip!

I put a chip in it, but than not booting, I think I got a frag...

sidocious · « **Reply #11 on:** October 26, 2006, 08:55:00 AM »

when I installed the chip, I got just one blink on my screen, after nothing happend.

I think, I try to build an EEPROM reader...
