Newbie Needs Help Please
« on: July 24, 2006, 03:38:00 AM »

Hi All I posted this on XBOX Media Centre and was told its not a media centre problem but a chip issue can anyone help.

My original post was

"Hi All im very new with Xboxes, however a freind upgraded my 2 week old xbox to XBMC 1.1.0 and it worked fine for one week however at the end of the week i turned it on and the CD would'nt open.

I pressed on and off still nothing and nothing on screen now i ger FRAG after 3 reboots and i have a black screen.

the shop i bought it from thinks i did something hes removed the chip and gave me the original Hard Drive which i have tried i still get the same even with everything disconnected i get the same.

Is there anyway back from this ?

the shop seem to think it's a new Mother board or nothing.

Please dont tell me that its knackered all help appreciated."

To add more light the shop i bought the xbox from says its a mobo issue that cant be recovered he has shown me the hard drive working in another machine but has "Told" me that the chip worked in another machine but i hav'nt seen it.

If there is any answer he said he will do the labour but wont replace the mobo.

Im realy desperate I don't have the money to replace the mobo so can anyone help thanks.

I'm realy new to Xbox's even though im a systems administrator so please be gentle with me.
