X2.1 PRO - won't flash?? Problems...

Just got in my batch of X2.1 Pros today and insdtalled it a new XBOX. On first boot it goes to the FlashBios Cromwell screen and none of the Lite cds work with it.

I pluged the programmer in and flashed the same way I do X2.0 Pros. It just won't take!!!

IOn every boot... Cromwell.

Fook!

The wired thing is when I erase, it takes like 1 second, and the 2.0 Pros took about 60 or more. I checked for flash protection and it off, I even trid with it on. It seems the damn chicp will not erase and write the bios.

I checked everything and all is good.

Anyone have any ideas or came accross the same problem!

If this is a bunk chip, first one, I am going to go fooking crazy!
