When I press the eject button the "ring" blinks twice green, the Xbox shuts off and restarts on its own. Is this normal? I don't have a rw media disc to create a bootable dashboard and wondering if this would be the cause of the ring blinking and the xbox shutting off.
Thanks in advance (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

If it previously worked un-modded then look for damage done during install.
What kind of damage am I looking at? During the install of what? It seems to work fine except for the eject button...
This was my first install of a mod chip and I'm 99% sure I did everything correctly. Would a bad solder point be a cause? I could just have the mod chip connected all the time by connecting BT and Pin 9. Never use live.
It just doesn't make sense, I did everything correctly.

If the box worked as a regular box with no issues before you started the install but did not after wards then you have done some damage inadvertently during installing the chip.
Unsolder D0 from the chip and unsolder BT from the Chip.
pull it off the header and see if the box works as normal.

It seems I didn't pay attention to the wire placement. When I screwed the mobo back in the D0 wire was right underneath one of the ground pads. When it was screwed in, it pierced the wire and made contact with the ground!
I replaced, moved the wire and screwed it back in. Everything is working perfectly (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)
