If you just borked your bios, then any old modern chip should do. Since you want cheap, go with an an Alladin or a DuoX2GS. I've never tinkered with an Alladin personally, but I installed a DuoX2GS on a friend's box (after screwing up my first, admittedly...but I did get my second go, an X3 right and it's a breeze if you take it slow and do your reading. You can get one for around $15-20 plus shipping.

Sorry, guess I should pay better attention. It looks like you borked your dash, not your bios. Either way, you're going to need a chip to recover. Exactly what does your Xbox do when you try to boot? Frag (the power lights Flash Red and Green), give you an error code, or just bump you to a screen saying that your Xbox needs to be serviced?

as soon as i turn it on it says error i think 21. and i cant play games at all. so which chip is better x3 or xenium or however u spell it, gold or ice whatever. my mom owes me 110 bucks. 100 for grades and i had a D, and 10 for giving my dog a bath 2 times. ya so im not to worried about the money although my dad said he would pay half of a 360 so i only need to get to 200 then i got the 360. so i dont know should i just get the 360 then get a chip to fix it. cuz im liking that idea better. so what the heck i guess i will do that but still get a chip u know. um anyways ya so with has a good recovery program x3 or xenium chip?

Either chip will do. I personally use Xeniums, they're a breeze to install especially if its solderless. Once you install the chip and flash the bios, AID will do the rest and your xbox will be back to normal and then some,...lol _________________

if you could still salvage your eeprom on that hard drive you may be able to just remake the hard drive it self and not need a chip at all, then you could just start over with a brand new box and just install the softmod again. using xboxhdm and your computer of course. i could help you with this as i have done it before.

Ok man.... Heres whats wrong with your xbox. When you installed the softmod, you probobly didnt back up your stock ms dash. So now since you uninstalled your mods, you have no dashboard on your xbox. Really, the only way you can fix it is by installing a modchip. With a modchip installed, you can boot with the AID disc to install a dashboard. If you arnt comfortable with installing a modchip on your own, you can allways ask someone here to install it for you. Taking it apart and putting it back together will do absolutly nothing. _________________
