Get to your modchip's OS screen and reflash your chip. I have the Xenium chip and to get to the OS, I push the "eject" button instead of the "power" button below it.

I did as you said, but nothing happens. I press eject and the xbox turn on and off for 2 times and then it remain on but having the light green and red, that's it!
Do you think I should get a bios disc? If I have to, how do I do that? I was reading the other threads and What I got about the Bios Disc is that I have to get a bios 256kb and turn it to 512kb and then 1024kb, I have the bios 256kb, but I don't know how to make it to become 512 and 1024, I also know that having a bios 1024kb, I have to turn it to 100mb, to do this I know how to! the other point is that I don't know which modchip I have, I paid for a guy to buy it and set on my xbox, it was 2 years ago and I have no contact to that guy. sorry for this "letter"! :-))
I NEED HELP, thank you for doing that.....

Hmmm that's a bummer. I guess the last thing you could do is open up your Xbox and see what chip it is.
http://www.xbox-scene.com/articles/open1.php
Then go to their website and look for info on how to reset the chip manually. There's usually a switch on the modchip somewhere that lets you do that. Find it and reset it back to the default settings.
When the chip works again, you can reflash it with a bios. Choose a bank size (256K, 512K, 1MB) and flash it with a corresponding bios. If you download the X2 4983 bios, there's a tool that comes with which lets you "resize" the bios to fit in the bank you want when you flash the chip.

Now I think I'm in trouble, there is on modchip on my xbox.
Do you have any idea of what is to be done about it?
I've gone to x-scene and I saw the pictures of modded xbox, and my xbox doensn't have it! How do I bring back the bios to it? I still haven't fine the answer of it, even in x-scene!
If you have any idea for it, thank you. My &*¨$%@# friend haven't set a chip on that. he saved the money :(((

The chip is on the motherboard. You'll have to remove the HDD and the DVD-ROM drive to see it. Unless you can reset the chip to the original settings, I don't have any other ideas on how to put the bios back in it.

Okay. I looked for the modchip, but I haven't find it. the man who hacked my xbox, did it without the modchip. no problem if you have no idea of how I may do that. But if you got any information about, please tell me or anyone who knows how I can fix it.
Thank you........

Oh I see, so you have a softmod. That method is never 100% that it will last, at least I don't think so. I have seen a lot of people running into problems using that method. I suggest you put a modchip in instead next time. Sorry but I don't know much about this softmod method.
