I recently purchased the x-ecuter mod chip and have been attepthing to install it into my brother xbox, now we seems to have all the solder points done correctly(boy that wire was a pain to solder on the motherboard) and when we turn it on the light flashes red and green, which i read is a bad solder point, now we tested all the solder points, and they all get power but the one but we can't seem to get it to get power, what should i do? Also the motherboard isn't looking to well around where the wire needs to be connected since it is such a small point. The xbox still turns on if we pull out the wire though(so i guess thats a good sign). If i can't get this to work is there anywhere i can send it to be done or anything? any help would be appreciated, i don't want to have to tell my brother he bought all this stuff and its not gonna work. Thank you.

If you post a picture or link one to the site, I might be able to help you. I'm no soldering expert, but I can compare it to mine.

I've seen people who had simular problems. One being me. I forgot to solder that big half circle thing to the board, the one next to the screw. Other people forget to bridge those 2 points, where you'd put the modchip on/off switch.

have u bridged the 2 solder pads on the x-ecutor chip if so u may have damaged the board as the solder point you refer to dissolves when it gets 2 hot
