Hey guys I usually don't post questions, because these forums have all the answers you need. But I cannot for the life of me find a resolution to my problem, so maybe someone can help. I installed a SpiderChip v1.1 into my Xbox v1.6b, and I also installed the on/off switch that came with the chip. When I boot the xbox with the switch off, my xbox works like it should. But when I boot the xbox with the chip enabled, all I get is a black screen and nothing else. I don't get the frag lights or anything, it seems to boot the right way as far as the open button light is concerned. I just don't know where to go from here, because since my screen is black I can't flash the bios via a disc. I also did purchase the usb programmer that the chip offered, so maybe I will have to resort to using that. Any responses to this problem would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Definatly try rhe usb programmer. That will eliminate some possibilities.

Just had a similar problem with an X3 and a 1.6b. Turned out it was the stock flash bios wasn't compatible with a 1.6b so I was getting no video. So what I did was put it onto a 1.4 and flashed it on that machine....then re-installed it onto the 1.6b with a bios that it can use.

Problem was now fixed.
