Xbox Error 05 After Newly Installed Power Supply
« on: May 11, 2009, 06:48:00 PM »

The chip isn't working, and the error 5 is because the Xbox is booting the stock BIOS and the disk is unlocked. That's good - it means the rest of the Xbox seems to be working fine. Check the D0 wire for continuity. If it's OK then you probably need to fit a new chip, and if the current one is on a pinheader it's relatively easy. You should be able to fit a DuoX2 without too many problems, and with just a couple of wires to solder.
