Here is the problem, I have had my v.1.0 xbox for about a month now with X3 chip and the latest bios. Everything was going smoothly up until 3 days ago, I turned on the xbox to transfer over some things via ftp, and I came back to play about 45 minutes later and the controller seemed to be very laggy [id hit the button, nothing happened. Id hit the button a few more times and then it would work] so I shut off the xbox, and came back about an hour later to try again, and now the controller does not work at all. I restart multiple times, and the controller works about every 5 times, but when it does work, it only works for a few minutes, and then gives out again. I have tried multiple controllers, and checked all the daughterboard connections, and all seems to be in order. So I thought here would be the best place to voice my problem.

I have ordered a replacement daughterboard, and I was just wondering if these are the symptoms of a bad daughterboard, and if the replacement will fix my problem.

Hope I explained it in enough detail, and appreciate any responses.

you try all the ports to?? if it's that... probly a bad daughter board. you can buy em for like 7$ shipped form people on here,

that happened with my 1.0, i just pushed the board onto the mobo more, plus it was crooked, so only ports 1 and 3 worked

yeh none of the ports work, and i tried pushin the daughterboard back in but still had the same problem.

Well i already ordered the new daughterboard. I just wanted to make sure that you guys thought this would fix it.

Thanks alot for the input.

im 99% it's gonna work.. if it doest try different ports.. but thast almost imposoble to break em ... also. If that doesnt fix it it's a bad mobo. but deep down inside... do you really need controllers?

thanks very much

Youre welcome M8

Ok I got the daughterboard today, I popped it in, and was playing successfully for a little while [5 minutes maybe], then it started givin me the "Connect Controller to controller port one" error. So just to be sure i took the whole thing completely apart, and checked all my solder points, and all seemed to be fine. plugged it back in and had the same problem. I am totally clueless on what the problem is.

Has anyone heard of a problem like this?

Thanks,

Try cleaning the controller conections. I know mine can get pritty dusty.

how would that affect all 4 ports and 2 conrollers though?

im having the same problem my controller port 2 doesnt work but its a 1.1 so it can be the daughterboard i was doing the hardwire the dongle mod and i think i shorted it any help.

I dont know what the problem is, so I just bought a new motherboard, so if anyone is interested in purchasing a v.1.0 mobo/hardrive with the problem listed above, contact me with an offer.

i had a problem like this a while back.... my buddies modded xbox. he never opens it moves it from where it sits. One day after backing up a game, he reset and well pretty much NONE of the controllers were working. I opened it up, checked the daughterboard, cleaned connections, everything seemed kosher, even replaced it with a brand new working one and nothing. So he just game me the old xbox and went and bought a new one as he couldn't wait for the troubleshooting. And let me say it was a itch.. y u ask? well his Drives were locked on that xbox and no controller working.. well lets say..... it was a task but I did manage to do some eeprom swapping to get his drives working on his new xbox.

so keep ya head up bro

great story but did you fix the problem?

well my box was already modded with an unlocked drive so i dont have to worry about any of that
