I'm sorry to say, but your Xbox looks well and truly 'rooted'

Something has gone very wrong somewhere. I have got no idea how to fix that.

Did you do anything before that happened? Install something, modify something?

Do you get audio at boot? Sound like its accessing the hard drive? What video chipset? PAL/NTSC?

this sort of video error can happen due to bad ram or a botched ram install... the xbox shares the ram between the video system and the computational system.

the xbox does this with and without the modchip in it and it doesnt get sound on boot and its NTSC and coaxant (idk how to spell it) video chip. It might be the ram but there is still the stock on it.
