my xbox had been working perfect for at least a year. now its all fucked up. a month back i noticed that i could no longer boot to original bios. now i cant boot to anything but the chip. when i boot to a regular bios it turns off and turns back on to the chip. when i boot to a bios with my eeprom back up (and one off the net) i get blinking red.

smartxx says there is nothing wrong with the eeprom

do soldered connections just fall off after at least a year of working? i opened up the box and cleaned it and everything looked ok.

Something must be lose, check your connections again, maybe even with a magnifying glass, especially the D0 point.

im pretty sure that if i can get the welcome screen the d0 point is ok. i did check all the points they look fine. i fixed a couple things that didnt look so good but that didnt help
