Ok so here is the situation. I got a xbox that had a damaged drive.
Manf Date: 2006-09-08.
The drive that was in there was a Hit 79. I read the firmware and found out that it was
flashed with IE 1.2 and spoofed as a Hit 59. I got a good key from the drive, who knows if its the right one.
So i have tried several different drives (Benq/Hit 79/Liteon) But i keep getting the "put a originial disk in the drive" error. Before i mark this xbox off as a paperweight I wanted to try different DVD drive version thinking maybe the person who tried to fix it before spoofed it as the wrong drive type.
So now onto my question if I know the manufacture date of the console can i determine what DVD drive should be in it, or at least narrow it down.
Any help would be appreciated thanks.
