Xbox Restarts Repeatedly

Three ways I use to get out of CLOCK LOOP:

Insert a damaged Audio CD.

Plug in the network cable and wait for 15 minutes,
watching the system reboot like crazy. --- You can
also try with no network cable, and wait for 15
minutes again.

Rapidly press the A button or START button during
boot-up and thru the reboot.

Worse case of CLOCK LOOP I ever had was 2 hours
of rebooting.

Are you sure it is CLOCK LOOP?

Signs of CLOCK LOOP is normal bootup complete
with the big X with MS logo, and then blank
screen with a little blob or just part of green orb
before it reboots to the big X with the MS logo.

Yes, it is exatly like you described.  I will try all of your methods until one works.  I do have linux installed, is there any way to get it of the harddrive and not just off the dashboard.

Im having this same problem but my xbox has been on for two hours and still nothing.Ive tried pressing a and ive tried the network cable one but neither are working.When you say a damaged music cd what do you mean by damaged?Do you mean like scratched up and stuff or a messed up song on the cd.
