you need to to your DVD drive, you can install your modchip or you can

|

INSTALL THE MODCHIP
CAUTION: Due to the heat involved in soldering,
you must only hold the iron tip on the pad to be soldered for enough
time to allow the solder to flow. If too much heat is applied to
the contact it may damage the chip, lift a PCB trace or burn insulation
back on the wire. If you burn the insulation off of the wire, trim
and re-solder the connection. Removing too much insulation could
result in the exposed copper wire touching other traces on the board.
This is hazardous to the slim line Xbox360 unit.
You can now tape the ModChip on the board in a clear area where it will not
be damaged.
After double-checking all connections and soldering points,
follow the above steps in reverse order to re-assemble the Xbox-360.
Once you have completely re-assembled the unit, plug in your power source
and video outputs. Power up the Xbox 360 and test the unit FIRST
with an original game. |
