Well to start this thing i have a v1.1 xbox and smartxx V1. I was playing Ninja Gaiden Balck (awsome game by the way biggrin.gif ) but i stopt the game by pressing start and let it in pause menu. Next about 15 seconds i looked back to my tv and noting was on totaly black screen. So i restarted my xbox and BOOMM!! damnn ligts are flashing. Its boots up 3 times en flashes red/green. I never touched tounch my xbox for the last 4 weeks and now he does this. So i checked my solder points and the wires where ok no loose points. Then i de-solderd my modchip and solderd a new one in its place because i had a reserve left and still the same problem (frag). Then i de-solderd me modchip and booted modchipless and still frag lights. Does it really have been fraged my TSOP need i to buy a new xbox???

no a chip is way better than a softmodded xbox,there are so many problems with softmodded xbox's and thats why i am almost an addict because people dont know what they are doing,i would get a chip anyday over a softmod...the solderless adapters work perfect and never frag the box....

yea watever the hell u say dude thos shits r expensive as hell so shit i wouldnt go and by one for freaken $80.00 when u can just get the action replay for $25.00 and splinter cell, mechasault, or 007 agent under fire for like $4.00 used. so it just comes up to about $32.00 so yea it depends what kind of person u r if u wanna spend $80.00 on a chip and still open it and accidently mess the xbox up then by all means go and mess up your xbox cause i responsable or n e other modders that gave u tutorials cause u chose to mod the freaken thing!

the xecuter 2.6 with the solderless adapter is only 40.00 $US,and the DuoX2 is only 10 bux and is an awesome chip....and if anything messes up or your HD gets unlocked you can just lock it back....unlike the softmod trust me i have 2 softmodded xbox and one with a chip in it,i know the pros and cons of both and really a chip has no cons especially with a solderles adapter there is no way to mess up the motherboard.....

lilpimp back the f*ck off, theridges knows a boatload (probobly about as much as me) j/k anyway softmods are ok but cant compare to chips in terms of reliability and ease. Dont come in here and act like you know everything, we dont want your biased opinion, if your offering no help.
Now, to the real problem, as ridges said it sounds like a new mobo is needed, but dont give up!!, check your soldering and all the traces, you couldve bridged something. GO over the whole board first.

this is because the softmod dont want you updating the xbox...and can you go to your ms-dash because thats another reason it would do that...but with a chip you wouldnt get that problem haha...
