Hello Jules! I recently got one of these baby's and the power button on the rf board itself has been ripped not so cleanly off.
The xbox Refuses to stay booted with the board on or off, but I am able to get it to force boot for at most 3 or 4 seconds with a paperclip, the fan spins lightly once and the light flashes as it sounds its on chime then its just off. Could there be a short in the power supply or motherboard caused by this button rippage? The eject button that leads nowhere also boots with same results
