since it wont boot without the chip it sounds like the onboard eeprom is gone. i just fixed an xbox last week that had the same problem, red flashing around eject button and no video at all. i followed these instructions and fixed it http://www.llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/eeprom_fix.htm

Maybe the drive is unlocked and the bios has gone astray?? or someone didn't put the ms dash back on..I don't usually unless I'm asked to...(or it's for a noob..no offence, we were all noobs once!!)
Check that the chip is really secure in the pinheader..the 2.6 is a bit touchy about this..make sure that nothing is pressing down on the free end of the chip, that causes this fault
xecuter 2.6..boot by holding both power and eject in for 3 or so seconds should bring up a flash bios screen..or is that the X3...
There is a switch (one on the bank of 3)labelled underneath "flash enable" or something similar..try that in the on position first before panicking and attacking the eeprom..and double check ALL the wiring..then check it again..in particular the d0 connection to the lpc rebuild plastic thing (I prefer to use a real piece of wire)

yea i got that same problem i beleave it's the eeprom 4 shore it turns on 3 times and red,orange flash with no display at all... I see that you used the Fast & Legal way to reflash your EEPROM with Cromwell "Program your mod with cromwell-patched.bin" did ant get that at all...just lookin 4 some body that understand it well to brake it down a little..like darthnip or somebody...Kid.J.go

it's really easy, i did it exactly as that page says. the only thing that page wasn't clear on is when it's talking about this part - addEeprom cromwell-patched.bin eeprom.bin you have to do it in DOS. just put the cromwell bin and your eeprom in the C: root directory and go to a DOS promy and put addEeprom cromwell-patched.bin eeprom.bin, then you'll see it say "patching comlete" or something similar.

you'll have to explain what exactly it is that you "aren't getting" so we can narrow it down.

ok do just what i said above, place all the files and your eeprom backup in the root (C:), then open a DOS prompt and put addEeprom cromwell-patched.bin eeprom.bin and you should get a thing saying it did it.

I have an unmodded Xbox. One of the early ones. Went to turn it on and got the Red/Orange Flashin ring. The Xbox seems to turn on/off 2-3 times before the lights flash. Forums suggest video problem. Have tried 2 different video cables. AV cable and RF Cable but still the same.
Anyone got any suggestions before I bin it?
