if so it may just be the bios is flashed it with its fucked up in a wierd way making it go loopy.
either way your gonna have to do a matrix/29wire reflash of the tsop to fix (unless its somethin other than the tsop)

If this is not available, then the only way to get life support is down the modchip route.

When I hit Eject instead of Power, the eject button flashes with normal green lights, but the tray won't open.

Madness. I'm having the same issue with an xbox a bud gave me. The stranger part is that it does everything yours is doing except it's NEVER BEEN MODDED. guy had it for a half a year and it just went stupid. Strange.

Did you check your connections? I had a similar problem just recently and found that My DVD ROM was not fully connected to the mobo. Also, as far as your dvd-rom not working properly, it could just be your dvd rom. Try it with another dvd rom and see if that works.

I've exactly the same problem but the difference is that I didn't try to flash anything. I was just ftping and all of the sudden my evoX screen froze. After 3 reboots, black screen, no audio and dvd tray won't open.
I don't think my modchip is toasted, neither my HDD so maybe there is a problem with the mobo (nvidia chip, a/v connector?).
Anything new from you guys having the same problem?
Thanks.

if you have a modchip with a bad flash... take it out and try to boot a game or just go do the dashbaord if you still have the originial MS dashboard. otherwise install a new modchip
I had exactly the same simptoms back in the day when I installed my enigma chip (yeah the really old one) when not soldered correctly it did what you guys are describing but as soon as I took it out it worked again....
someone correct me if I'm wrong....

That BIOS isn't supposed to be put on the TSOP (it's a bloody confusing name!). It's supposed to be put on a Matrix mod to prepare for flashing the TSOP.
Check the tutorials, you may be able to reflash the TSOP if you buy or borrow a Matrix mod or something.

5th post down, by cribby08 ... You can't have all three points connected when you boot up ... you need to leave the one on the top-side of the board open until the box is booted up and ready to flash ...
I tested this myself right away and cleaned off the top solder point and it's booting fine now (rebooting over and over due to a bad font exploit, but that's better than where I was 5 minutes ago ...)
Once you're totally ready to flash, in EvoX after an exploit or in raincoat or whatever, you then need to solder to two points on the top of the board ... you can then flash the Sharp chip, then power down, clean off that top point and reboot ...

this is why i suggest people to double check the MD5 before they put a new (freshly downloaded off the net) bios on their TSOP...with bioschecker...in case of a bad (corrupt) DL.....
a lot of times the file you down might unrar fine...but it was corrupted when someone first RARed it...always double check....

My chip has a removable BIOS chip thankfully and I'm just waiting for my pre-programmed chip to arrive in the mail. I HOPE that is the solution. At least I can use the box with the chip disabled...
To be honest, I think I made a mistake with my evox.ini hash editing. But, we'll see...
