I made a topic here yesterday about a problem that sound like that.
I put the chip in, it doesn't boot. I take it out and the XBOX frags!
Tell me, does your motherboard have any part part scraped by one of the pins that don't sit in the LPC port? I think mine does and that may be what's killing it.
Maybe it shorted a circuit or something. I'm no electronics buff

There's no part scraped in the motherboard only the D0 hole is coming biger. I'll tray again to open my Xbox and clean the LPC port.
and I want ask you there is another hole for D0 in the motherboard ??

sometimes that D0 is very sensative and if you scrap it too much or fuck with it too much it will break and there goes your motherboard. When I installed my xbit i carfully scraped inside the D0 w/ a screw driver and clean it off and it takes al ittle force, but the chip will snap in once it gets into the d0

pah... when you uninstall a chip you also have to uninstall the new dashboard... the installation is in the HD not in the chip... (you should have done a backup of your original MS dashboard)... to make it work properly without the chip you have to set is IDENTICALY as it was before modding. I don't know about HD locking...
If you have replaced the hd i think you can still use it but you have still to uninstall all functions that works with the chip...

If you want I can give you further details... btw I need help for this stupid chip that goes out of place every fucking time I touch it.

Not true, you can leave them other non MS applications on the hard drive without having the chip in. All you really need to do is lock the hard drive.

From what the original poster has described, I would say that he has fucked up the d0 when hje was removing the original chip.
I would try routing the underside d0 point with the topside then making another connection from the underside d0 to one of the d0 pins on the chip.

if you have broken your D0 point do a search in the forums with "broken D0"

also for the alternative D0 it is stated at the xbit tutorial forums...wire instalation.

but realy, since you broke the D0 don't try to do anything more, try to find someone who can help you.

That was very hard to understand so im sorry but i cant help you.

I think you might have wrecked your D0

because its not supposed to get bigger as you said it is... But you might be able to buy a new mobo. But it must be your xbox version.
