sup fellas, a few days ago i updated my xeniums to the xos 2.0.1 and all was great until today. i turn on my xbox and for some strange reason my xbox would turn off and on about 3 times, then the xbox eject button flashes red and green. and also the xeniums led lights a solid red color. at the same time i don't have any video at all. i'm not sure what has happen to my xenium chip. so i open up my xbox and took the chip out and it's load up and then i gets a contact tech support and error code 05. i put the chip back in, turn it on and the same thing happens. turns off and on for about 3 times the flashes red and green and no picture at all. i even tried the eject button but no luck. (same thing too.) is my xenium's chip dead, or corrupted os. i really need help on this issue. thanks guys

Dunno, but your 05 error is because your HD is unlocked.

When you get your Xenium working again you can lock your HD.

I had the same problem. No one on the forum was able to suggest anything that worked. I ordered a new Xenium, poped it into the solderless adapter and the it worked. I've tried the 2 Xenium recovery trick, but it didn't work for me.

Also, I updated the new Xenium from 2.0 to 2.0.1 with a CD and that update took without any problems.

Try burning 2.0.0 to a cdrw and put it in your box. Then start up the box and flip the switch on the chip and hopefully it will downgrade back to 2.0.0.
