did you install the chip you could see if all the soldering to the chip and the pinheader are all ok. or if its a solderless chip in the xbox then that could be you prob m8 you only have to nock it then the pinheader comes out of place just open it up and have a good look
 
red and green flashes mean an error i would sugest opening it up could be somthing easy like the ide or power cable has cum out of the hard drive?

gopher2005 just to let you know he is not getting an error message on the screen so it must be a littel more than just the ide cable come out of the hardrive m8 it sounds more like the chip to me

thanks everyone who has helped with this thread. the guy who originaly put the chip in has offered to re solder the chip , if it breaks again i shall buy the solder less chip, to be fair it does the job , put having looked at your`re links the solder less looks much better.ps anyone in the glos area on the scene ?
