Since its solderless I would take the chip out and see if your still having that problem. If not then thats good. Wouldn't hurt to reflash the bios. Also, could be that your not getting connection on all your pins. Did you get the rivets or no? I installed my Chameleon Solderless but cause when I got mine there weren't the rivets at the time to put in the LPC so I had to solder a little in the holes to get a good connection. When I don't know enuff to be 100% sure of something I just elminate the possibilities.

That means that your chip is working. Did you flash it with the evox d6 red bios?

no a) its not a dud chip as pong says, and pong no i havnt even re-flashed it, APARENTLY it comes with the Linux Cromwell bios but after seeing this in red im very unsure on that. IF it has the red x2 bios what now? burn the evox on to a cd?

my bad, I thought I asked if you reflashed. Anyhoo, I guess one way to find out if its installed and working correctly is to just boot from a backed up game or....a cdr or cdrw. Does an original game disk still work? Were you gonna put Evox on your friends? If so I'd boot from a slayers autoinstall or something similar. Before I do a mod I reflash and then try and see if it will boot a backup, if it boots a backup then I know its good. I've only used the Chameleon's and burned M7 bios and don't know much about any others stuff. I have done 5 box's with the cham and m7, all work wonderfullly.
