Hi there, pretty new to the fiddly around with xbox stuff.
I bought an xbox from a car boot the other day for 4 quid, i then booted it up and it runs but then gets error 05. So ive got a slayer evoX dvd but it doesnt work in the xbox. I have tried it in my other xbox and no problem at all!
So i opened up my xbox and found that there is a 120gig maxtor hard drive in there. VERY SURPRISED lol
I know the xbox is chipped because there are switches on the back but nothing happens when i use them. So when i opened up my box, i found my chip resting on a resistor but it wasnt PLUGGED in but it was wired. So i plugged it in and tried rebooting, still the same. So i try turning the chip on and then it turns on, then off,tries again 3 times, then off and then comes on and stays on. During all of this, the screen remains blank!
Ive tried numerous things - switching dvd drives, trying hard drive in difo xbox etc but still no luck!
Does anybody know what i can do? i really want to get this xbox working!
I dont have any idea on what model the chip is etc as i just bought it as is.
Any help is appreciated!!!!
Thanks in advance people

Welcome to the site.
Sounds like you got a bad chip or your DO point is loose.

With a mod chip the hdd wont need the C and E drive set up in a stock way so you might not have the files in the right place to run the xbox with out the chip and you cant boot the burn disk since the chip is not working to tell the xbox how to read it.
