Flashing Error Codes

This refers to the outer ring color that is displayed around the DVD eject button on the Xbox. Note: this may not apply if your box has been 'Modded' either with a chip or 'softmod'.

Flashing Green; bad bios load.
Flashing Red-Orange; bad video output, could be damaged hardware.
Flashing Red-Green; The MCPX chip is overheating or damaged. If the problem is intermittent, try placing a heatsink on the MCPX and cleaning out your Xbox. (Note: the MCPX chip is the one with the nvidia logo on it.)
Flashing Orange; if you've modded it may be a solder splash or damaged trace also overheating.
Flashing Orange-Green; no Audio/Video pack installed. check the cable for proper installation, if using the High definition pack revert to the standard cable.
Solid Green with no audio or video; this is probably a problem with audio settings. try to reboot your Xbox with a standard A/V cable instead of the High Definition A/V cable.

Xbox boots three times and displays a flashing Red-Green usually means your mod chip is installed incorrectly
