Hi again.

Sorry to repost but everyone seems to miss my post. I am still unable to get my chip to work from any bank. whatever bank i select it just boots direct to MSDASH - not my avalaunch???

This happened after playing Live on PGR2. I have checked all my wires to see if one came loose but all connections are present and stuck like glue to the MB.

I cant use the LPT to reflash chip as windows doesnt see chip anymore. Is there any other way of reflashing the chip???

Thanks again...

If it wont boot and windows can't see the chip that would suggest to me its fu(ked.

oE.

Lol :OD

I kinda guessed that would be - strange how it will boot every so often though....

Oh well - new chip maybe in order......

any more suggestions would be welcome...

so copied games down work as well? id they dont, it does sound like a duff chip, the game cant have corrupted your bios really

if its booting direct to dash, it sounds like the xbox doesnt even know a chip is fitted.
if your bios was corrupt, your box would frag (red/green flashing eject button) and do nothing else.

sounds like it could be one of these 2 things

your d0 wire isnt connected anymore
or
maybe the chip has been disabled due to a faulty enable/disable switch on it ?

those 2 things would cause the xbox to go straight to the ms dash on boot as the xbox would think the chip wasnt there or disabled.
