Hey folks,
Having a problem with my latest attempt at RGH. Using a matrix v1 without oscillator. Got the console to boot xell, punched in the CPU key and flashed the nand image. I got maybe 5 successful boots out of it before I started messing around with my various hard drives to see if I could be lazy and avoid setting up all the proper software to run aurora.
I previously had a falcon that worked great for a few days, froze, and promptly bricked. I'd done a good bit of legwork as far as software installs, so I thought I'd just try it out. First I plugged in a HD from another retail Jasper I had, it booted fine. Swapped it out for the 500gb HD I had in the falcon RGH before it bricked; no boot. removed the HD, it boots. Plugged the HD in while its still on, and it goes straight to aurora. all my files are still there and accessible.
Fired up a game, it worked fine for the main menu, and froze upon trying to load a level. Now the chip is not illuminating, and the console won't boot. turns on, no RROD, just nothing. DVD drive opens and closes. Is it possible I fried the chip through some kind of HD compatibility issue? any other thoughts?
