I hooked up my chip and when i turn it on i get the blue light.Do I have to flash it before it works.When i turn off the switch it works fine.My xbox still works.PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
Are you getting any screen at all when you boot up your Xbox, or is it just black? The blue light on the modchip means that you are getting power from pin 9, which doesn't mean much. Your problem most likely relies on the d0 wire, so make sure that is securely connected to the correct point. Check out this site for some for some basic help, http://www.hackdabox.com/spiderchip.html
Ok, that's good your Xbox still boots up to the original dash. I am almost 100% sure your problem relies in your E wire. That is the wire that allows you to get into the flashbios screen for the spider chip. So go back and make sure that is installed correctly.
I sordered the e wire and now it works.Thanks 2 questions now do i flash the xbox and when i copy games what kind of cd do i use?

Cool! Check out this tutorial for flashing the chip: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/208817 Now check out this for backing up games: http://webpages.charter.net/modchipzone/backupxboxgames.htm First try using quality DVD-R for your backups, such as Taiyo Yuden, Ritek, Verbatim, etc. Even Sony, Memorex, TDK, and other media of that such will most likely work.
I know this is a stupid question but how do you make the disc to flash using nero.In nero i can't find where you make the iso file.
Open up the "Nero Burning Rom" and then follow this guide: http://www.teamxecuter.com/flashbios/dvd.htm If that guide gives you trouble at all, let me know what part and I'll help you through it.
Ok, I'm alittle confused now... Where does it say Nero Express in that guide? Post a picture of the part your stuck at because I'm confused. Oh wait, do you mean that you don't know how to get to this screen? On your desktop, go to "Start" "All Programs" "Nero" "Nero 6 Ultra Edition" & click "Nero Burning Rom" You should then get a screen like shown above.
Hmmm, well I am not familiar w/ that program. I'll try to find a tutorial and see what I can get going for you...
When the screen comes on it states spiderchip 1.0b.Do I need to do something different. I would think it wouldn't matter and thanks for all your help
Pop it in your Xbox drive and flash your chip. It shouldn't matter, just go ahead and flash it w/ your bios...
