A few weeks ago, I got a Xecuter 2.2 Lite Plus mod chip. I installed it that day. I got the green light to come on, so on and so on, and it worked perfectly. I then flashed the chip with the Xecuter 4977 bios, and it worked perfectly. I then installed Evolution X version 3921 on the hard drive and it installed great! The next week I got a 120 gb hard drive and installed it. It worked just fine! I downloaded some programs from #xbins like XBMP and XCommander R2. Everything installed and worked great. Then the other night without messing with the xbox at all, and after everything was working perfect the day before, I turned the xbox on and I got no picture on the screen, but I got the normal green blob bootup sound. The light around the eject button stays green with the mod chip on, but with the modchip off the light flashes red and green. Not red and green after two bootups, though, just red and green the first time. I already ruled out the Hard Drive. It's not the Hard Drive acting up. Has this happened to anybody yet. I haven't found anything like it on any newsgroup. It's not the normal Red/Green Flashing after two bootups. It kind of seems like it might be a bios problem, but I just don't know. If it is a bios problem, what can I do to fix it. Do i need the flasher programmer? Anyway, I need help, and I don't have enough money to go buy another XBOX. Thanks in Advance!
How do I reflash it, if I can't see anything on the screen. Do I just make the boot up CD and pop it in, and it will load automatically. I also don't have FlashBios running either. And when you say boot up CD do you mean a CD with the BIOS or Evolution X? Also, do you think I should make the boot up CD with FlashBios on it, or Xecuter2 BIOS? I already looked on Xbox-Scene they didn't have anything I was looking for I don't think.
I've been reading a little bit more and I think I might know what the problem is. I remember the last night before all these things started happening, I switched ntsc/pal modes in xbmp(not knowing what they were). It said the next time XBOX will reboot it will set the settings. Well, the next time I rebooted all this stuff started happening. I couldn't see video, but I heard audio. Now, the question is if this is it. How do I fix it. I don't even think it's booting up to EvoX (I can't ftp to the xbox). It kind of freezes before then. Also, I can't change it in the original MS Dash, because it flashes red / green before it loads(remember, NOT the usual fragging red/green after two bootups). I heard about the Enigmah Video mode switcher. I guess I could burn the xiso of that program to a CD-RW and see if the XBOX will bootup to it. If it does, I can't see the screen, and I didn't get any readme.txt when I downloaded the program. So, if Enigmah does load at bootup, what must I do to switch back to normal ntsc-m? What buttons should I push, etc? Also, would reflashing the bios reset Video modes? Thanks a lot guys!
Ok. Make a bootable CD of EvoX (Not the bios). Make sure the disk includes the default.xbe and evox.ini. You should be able to boot with the CD and run EvoX from the CD. You can then FTP into the box and fix(or just copy over) the evox.ini file.
I have the exact same problem! I am going to try what was said above...hope everything works! I too switched from NTSC to either PAL or to NTSC-J something like that. BTW, how do I make the CD bootable? Right now I am burning a CDRW with the files exovdash.xbe readme.txt and evox.ini also with the folder Skin. After making the CD i put it in. I can hear it reading. When I press random buttons I can hear it reading more. But still, nothing shows up on the screen. PLEASE HELP
Ok, now I don't even get the sound of the XBOX blob. My light now just flashes. It doesn't seem like it is doing anything. Will the boot of the evox dash of a cd help possibly?
