I have a modded 1.6 box with a super aladdin chip (not live) installed in it. Its always worked fine for me until today. I used it to soft mod a buddies xbox before he leaves and all went fine. When I installed my harddrive back in (WD 200 gb w/evo-x 3935 M8 bios) I pressed the power button and it flickered about 5 times real fast, shut off, flickered again shut off, flickered then stays on, but there is no picture or anything, just running current. I thought I may have jarred something loose when I placed it on the floor to put it back in the entertainment center but I'm not sure. Has anyone experienced this? What could be the problem/fix? Thanks in advance.

i've done the same damn thing last
night to a brad new v1.6.
I'm pretty sure the EEPROM has
been alterd some how.
I thought never mind i have a spare
1.4 mobo and hdd kicking around.
1.6 psu in a 1.4 = no good.

If the eeprom is faulty you normally get a solid red light and no video.
If it was me I would de-solder the chip and re-install it to be on the safe side and try booting with no drives plugged in.
Sounds like an LPC/bios/chip issue
