maybe your dashboard has issues upload a new one, or try another bios, and if you're getting disc read errors must be your dvd rom drive needs a cleaning or the discs you are trying aren't working properly.

that wasn't called for if you do not like Team Xodus products, then don't come to their forums.  You must be very immature and pathetic to go onto other forums and post negative comments.  This forum is intended to help and inform those who need it, you do not see me going over to xecuter's forums and saying they suck.  Xecuters are good, but i like my xenium and i use it and if others want to also let them.

i dont think it is the bios because even without the m8 bios my xbox does the same noise and sometimes it has the xenium panic error and i went through some of the menus and it unlocked my drive should i update my xenium os? i have 2.0
and what about my bad hard drive? what do i do to fix this?then what bios should i chose?

"annoying solderless adapter with a pogo pin installation" you do understand thats the same thing. the pogo pin IS solderless.


If you disconnect D0 from the xen chip. Does it boot properly to the tsop ?
Do you get the same noise ?
If not, then the mod has nothing to do with the noise.

You have opened and put your ear, and confirmed its the HDD and not the DVD or fans making the noise ?
