Title: Matrix Question
Post by: shake on June 09, 2003, 02:06:00 AM
hello all,
i have had a matrix chip installed now for a few months with no problems what-so-ever.
one day, the xbox will not boot up.  tries to boot 3 times, then just flashes green/red.
removed matrix and put retail hd back in, boots fine.  even boots with matrix installed in mode 1 (test/disable mode).
tried to flash matrix bios...  winlpc says "error erasing chip". and wmilk says "LPC bus error-peripheral returned SYNC=0F....  error getting device ID at address FFC00000...  device not supported".  i am running win2000 server on a shuttle ss51g.
i think the matrix is fried because this worked before (a few times).
any thoughts?  all help will be appreciated.

also, befoire my matrix died, i noticed that some new games will not load from hd (rayman3, wolfenstein etc).  i can copy these to my hd just fine, but when i try to start them, the xbox just reboots.   does the latest bios fix this?  i found xecuter 4976.02 somewhere...  is this the latest bios?

thanks,
shake
