Modchip doesn't seem to work?

Hey guys, picked up an xbox being sold locally quite cheap, opened it up as it doesn't appear to be modded but there is a modchip inside. Looks like an aladdin or some clone of one.
Anyway, it doesn't appear to be working as there is no alternative dash and the console won't boot any burnt discs such as hexen. It may be the drive itself though as it doesn't want to read an original disc either but it is quite scratched though.
Any way to test the chip or should I just throw it out and tsop flash? I believe it's a 1.5 console so it should work.
I did read about holding the power button for a few seconds to test the chip but the eject button starts flashing red and orange then it won't boot.
Ideas anyone?
