Spiderchip Bad Flash

You will have to hotswap the chip into another chipped box now to flash it. The programmer is next tu useless so don't waste money on it.
You most likely flashed the wrong bios for your version of Xbox so the chip may work in a very early box Version 1 or 1.1 so you could fit the chip in one of those and reflash it with a correct bios for your version

You basically have to boot the xbox with a working chip (D0 grounded for the swap) After boot you lift the chip off the LPC carefully and stcuk the bad flashed one  on in place of it without switching off the box. Run the flash on the swapped chip

Hello there ...

D0 in it's simplest form is just 2 solder pads on the xbox motherboard. There is a very small d0 on the top of the xbox motherboard and a slightly larger and easier to solder one on the back of the xbox motherboard.

You have to simply solder a wire from either d0 pad to a ground pad. The easiest ground pad is any screw hole.

You can't hotswap using a soft mod or a TSOP flashed xbox. You have to boot from the LPC port in order to flash a LPC chip.

Here are some D0 pictures to help you ...
