I have a Xbox v1.6 chipped with Spiderchip 1.1, and flashed the bios with no problems (EvolutionX M8plus_16.). The reason it was chipped because it just booted to error 16, and i thought that chipping it would help solve that. Now the problem is that it still boots to error 16 (dashbord problems), and when i try to boot with installer discs (Auto Installer Deluxe 2.11 also tried slayers) the disc doesn't boot up. But the strange thing is that when i start the xbox with the disc in, it goes to the big green xbox logo, and where the white MS text would display it reads "AID 2.1" for a while then it goes on to error 16. Since that text show, i assume that it can read the disc, but it doesn't boot it. I have tested with a few different disc brands and tried using CD-rw, cd-r, dvd-r burned as slow as possible with no luck. Can it be a media related problem and i should just keep trying with different discs or is it something else? ps. i tried searching but couldn't find anything, so if i have missed a thread i apologise.
You have two issues: First is your chip. Can you boot to your chips OS menu? If you can't check your pins again. The spiders like to jump. The D0 wire is usually the problem in that situation. Secondly, you have to have a different bios running. The MS bios will not read burned disks. Chances are, you have a whole bunch of working disks that your box just won't read. If your chip is not booting up, then the TSOP (MS bios) will load and it will not recognize the disk.
