    My Xbox 1.6 with X3 installed has some problems with certain colors.
    Depending on how much blue or red is on screen, the color stretches
    and bleeds off. The edges of graphics seem to "buzz" which becomes
    quite a disctraction when something vivid like Gulity Gear is on the screen.

    I didn't notice the problem back when I first got and modded the Xbox.
    I think it was about 6 months later honestly. I've taken the mod out and
    returned the xbox to factory with the same problems. Since removing the
    mod didn't work, I thoroughly cleaned everything and meticulously re-soldered
    the X3 back on.

    I use standard RCA cables with the Xbox and will track down some other
    RCA cables and also some component just to make sure.

    Ultimately the Xbox is going to be hooked to a TV that only accepts RCA
    inputs so I really need to find a solution for that. I'm skeptical that it's the
    cable and was hoping someone might know something on the inside of the
    Xbox to check for.

    Hooked up the xbox with a new set of cables and same problem.
    Tried another xbox and it had no problems..

    It's really noticeable when there is white text on black bankgrounds.
    The white will bleed blue out to the right about 1/4" .. Super annoying.

    Does anyone have any ideas? Is there some area on the main board I
    should check for anything out of the ordinary? Could it be a shielding problem?
