I have a stock xbox here that has error 9.  It gives this error within 1 second of startup.  I have put a modchip in it, put a new unlocked hdd in it and a new IDE cable and still error 9.  If I remove the hdd it gives the expected 7 error code and takes a long time to show the service screen.

[jeremydammit]

no its 1.2-1.5  haven't really checked to se exactly the version.  Odd problem.  It started out as error 21 and I replaced the dvd rom drive now it does 9...banging my head on it right now...LOL

[jeremydammit]

bro,...its never been opened...has had no mod attempts at all.  The solder traces are def not it.

[jeremydammit]

boy you guys don't fill in blanks very well.  Yes I opened it, AFTER I got it in for repair.  When the problem came about the xbox had never been messed with

[dougMod]

try chiping it maybe with a solderless chip if you have on lying around and unlock another HD and then lock it to your mobo and see

[jeremydammit]

your a noob, shut up if you have nothing to offer to troubleshoot this.  The xbox was a stock UNOPENED xbox.  It had error 21 so they bring me the xbox to fix.  I THEN take it apart and start troubleshooting(get it there noobie?).  I replaced the dvd drive because it was making odd noises,.... and that solved the error 21 and then it was error 9.  So I then put a x2.3 lite in it...no go.  I then put a unlocked hd in it...no go.  I then put a new IDE cable in it....no go.  So if anyone wants to add something useful then please do, but if you plan to call me a "liar" don't post your noob ass statement....ty

Ok noob...yeah I contradict myself...lol  Not my fault your not smart enough to comprehend what the situation is.  And really I could care less if the xbox ever works,...its not mine   I just find it strange that with all the people that have problems on here, but I don't see much error 9.

Any moron can figure out that he had this problem before he ever opened his xbox. After the error code came about, he opened it up trying to figure it out through process of elimination, replacing one thing at a time. Come on people its not that hard.

i dont think it was soo hard to figure out..

he got the stock box that was having an error.. there was no trace damage cause it was stock.. then hi installed the mod, and dvd and hd

check the pins on the IDE connector, maybe one of the solder joints came loose

[jeremydammit]

yeah I haven't checked that.  Will look....thx for the reply too.

You constantly contradict yourself and i hope no one helps you as you seem to be a real prick.

Merry xmas and i hope your box is fucked.

Dude, this guy is not a noob...hes been around here a lot longer than you and has contributed great ideas and mods to the scene...Notice how every single person that flamed you has under 75 posts? Noobs trying to sound important by flaming ppl


On a seperate note about your problem, I tend to agree with fallInc...I would check all of the IDE pins to see if that is a problem. Also, have you tried it with another different HD that was locked? I know you said you already replaced it with another one, but perhaps, although very unlikely, that one had something wrong with it too.

[jeremydammit]

still can't figure this one out.
