Do you think its fried?

i tried to enable Tsop writing on my V1.0 and when i put it all back together i turn it on and the LED around the eject button flashes green a few times then it flashes red and green and it wont do anything my tv wont show anything

 

Just first off what is Tsop Writing? I'm just curious on what it is. I don't think that your system would have fried. I haven't really heard of Xbox systems frying. So ya just update us what Tsop Writing is, and I might be able to help.

 

Does TSOP mean the on-board chip of the xbox???

 

yes it does you had to make a bridge between to points on the mobo to make it writable this is what i did to enable it

 

I'm guessing you shorted something.
desolder, see if it works, then try again. this time use a magnifying glass

 

i did desolder it all but when i did i think i pulled a capacitor or something off or actually two of them if you look at the link i pulled the two you have to bridge off

 

then yeah it's dead
sell it for spare parts or you could hard mod it... maybe

 

Try this...

a good tsop flash tutorial. On an old one you may have a "get out of jail free" option... there is more than one bios bank. Check the switching options, then read up on the dash swap tutorial (posted by me there some time ago)

 

what is this? if the board is fried then how can i get it to work with rebridging a second bank?

 

By fitting a mod-chip, your xbox might work again because I have heard that after fitting a mod-chip, the xbox gets controlled by the mod-chip................

 

I can attest to that.
the first mod I ever installed I botched the crap out of. I burned the D0 right off the board... then pulled the trace right up. yeah I'm dumb.

I traced what I had pulled off the board (D0 wire) all the way to where it started, then got a better soldering iron and connected my chip to that and it has worked ever since.
yeah I know, I got lucky but you might too.
