why does the xbox boot three times then flash red and green?

so what you are saying s that if you have checked and or re loaded the bios on the chip and you still get the 3 times start up then the red green flashing it is a bad trace or a damaged connection because i still get the problem with out the chip attached all i can see is one trace connection scratched a little but i would not consider this a break in contact i guess i will have to have an electical wizzard look at it for me
