iv got an Xbox which while i was playing a game it froze & when i turned it off & back on again an error code 12 appeared on the screen, the DVD drive wont open & the led is flashing green & red. it has been modded (soft modded as far as i can tell) & has XBMC & an 80GB hdd installed. i have three other Xboxes one of which doesnt switch on & the other two have hdd problems my question is can i just put the 80GB hdd in one of the other two Xboxes or can i just put one of the other three DVD drives in the Xbox that came with the 80GB hdd ? if so do i just do a straight swap & it will work or do i need to do something else to get them to work together ? also am i right in thinking that a error code 12 is a DVD drive fault ?

thanks in advance

Yes you can use one of the other DVD Rom drives. They are interchangeable.

You dont have to do anything special to it you just swap them out.
