ok have a realy stupid problem
« on: July 02, 2008, 09:16:00 AM »
well like the title says i got a stupid problem,i bought an x box off a buddy that got it from a guy who thought he would try to mod it,unfortunatly i am pretty sure they didnt know what they were doing,it has a mo****p that i had to uninstall because of bad soldering and it was hooked up to the eject button,the eject button has always been a lil sketchy (i think they held the soldering iron on it to long)but last night it died i cant eject my games anymore anybody know how i could just hook up a lil contact button to eject my stuff,or why my softmod is still auto booting cds when autoboot is turned to off. if i could just get my mod to not autoboot it wouldnt bother me cause i could still change cds with out taking the xbox apart.
any help or ideas would be greatly appriciated

find the contacts leading off of the eject button, solder a new button to it, if its the drive, i think you'll have to get a new one, scrap a junked xbox

i dont think you'll need an on/off switch unless your afraid of bumping it, not sure about the cell stuff, id say just go to your local hardware store and nab a momentary pushbutton from there
