Yea, this sounds like a dead hdd. If you play a game from the DVD rom, is it fine?

no its not fine! it does not load games propaly during gameplay. and old games off the hdd work fine.

Heat problems maybe? Try turning your fan up to 12v or 100%

nop not overheating it starts in the first 30 sec of gameplay

Has any of the contact pins of the IDE plugs on the hdd, DVDRoM, or mobo came out of contact?

Well...assuming all other options are exhausted, it pretty much comes down to faulty hardware...so, you should try another hdd in THAT xbox, or try that hdd in another xbox. Then you might can eliminate whether it might be a faulty hdd, or motherboard, or anything else.
