I can't seem to get my xbox working right.
Just yesterday i was playing on my xbox.It was working just as it should be, but then i disconnected it to take it to my friends house,and when we tried to turn it on the light on the front started flashing red instead on it's regular solid green. I even brought it home to find it wouldn't work.

More information please.
Is your machine modded? If so, what chip. How is the chip installed? Stuff like that.
There is literally hundreds of reasons why your machine may be doing this, but without us having the entire scenerio we cannot help you.

yes it is modded
it is a xenium
it is soddered into the motherboard
It runs xecuter2 bios w/evox dash
I can get into the OS but if I try to boot to the evox dash i lose my sound and video, and the led flashes red.
I read on another post that it is due to a bad EEprom that it doesn't work. It suggests that i should use the "configmagic" program and add a new EEprom if the EEprom isn't backed up. Mine is backed up, but if i try to restore it then it doesnt make a difference as far as booting up the system.
I wonder if my EEprom is bad, and if so is "configmagic" a computer program (would I need to connect it up to my computer and work on it)
where would I be able to get this program? And in event that I need a new one where can I get a new EEprom.

Hmmm...you could definitely have an eeprom issue. Unfortunately, I haven't messed with any eeproms except for restoring them from the Xenium ice or SmartXX OS.
I know custom-xmods has some eeprom experience....at least I am pretty sure he does. He may be able to help you.

Yeah, I am making the switch to a cms because of my lack of time I have to make changes...
I really like Mambo, I had to have someone help me, but it was worth it. _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter
