I finally finished my enclosure for my laptop and xbox, ran the power switch for the laptop and its all good to go, i tested the xbox before i did the enclosure and everything was working great, now when i go to turn on the xbox i get a blank screen and it the circle on the xbox is flashing, it flashes either green/orange or green/red i cant tell which. I tried hooking up a new connector to the lcd because the orange/green means there is a bad connection. So now i have to try and get my enclosure back apart and see what is the problem! Just wanted to rant, dont know if anyone has any thing they can do to help. On the bright side i got my laptop all in, i just have to figure out where i am going to put my external DVD player.

okay i looked at it and its definetly red/green, so i am thinking is that while i was wiring up a 5v usb hub i might have got a small piece of solder on the m2-atx, i will have to pull it off tonight and see if i can find a small piece, otherwise i have no idea what i need to do.

IF the xbox is modded then bad chip or bad bios image, and IF its screw on chip it might have came loose.

okay i was able to get the xbox out, now i need to know it looks like the xcutioner chip is a little loose, would that be the problem, is there a way to fix it?

with the cover open just keeping messing with the chip, and turn it on and see if the light goes away.

i messed with it some with 0 results, i will try again, if that doesnt work i will probably just take my old un-modded xbox and put that one in there, i have a few games but not what i had on the other one.

okay i messed with the switches on the front of the xbox and now i am getting this screen

What do i need to do from here?
what should i have the switches set to?

Just go on google and put in your problem there is tons of links that pop up.

If there is something wrong with your chip you could always just software mod your xbox. I run XBMC on my xbox and never even opened it up. You might want to check around this site. You should be able to find a lot of answers there.

YESSS well after reading around i figured out that my switches were off, it needed to be on, on, off, off, off and it loaded like a champ.

from what i remember, you dont even need the pcb attached for it to work
