Error 21 After Enabling Widescreen
« on: February 21, 2005, 08:07:00 AM »

Hi,

I'm not sure if I have this in the right forum, but as other people seem to have had the a similar problem I thought that I would try here first.

After changing my Xbox region from NTSC/J (yes it was a Japanese Xbox) via to NTSC/U and to PAL I was unable to boot either Avalaunch (error message: the Stuck on Avalaunch loading screen) or XBMC (error message: Stuck on black screen) or the xbox dash (error message: Error 21).

After a bit of fiddling with boot disks I was able to migrate to Evox, and then I was able to run configmagic. After restoring my EEPROM (luckly I had a backup) I could then rerun XBMC or the xbox dash, but if I tried to enable widescreen via the xbox dash it would crash to a black screen with a loud buzzing noise. I'd also provoke a crash with a black screen in XBMC if I tried switching the video mode, or if I tried to boot various games.

The weird thing is that I can run the evox dashboard at 480p (which is widescreen).

Things I've tried:

1) Restore EEPROM from backup - fixes Error 21 but does not allow Widescreen
2) Change the Xbox region to NTSC/J, NTSC/U and PAL using enignma

I really want to get this fixed so I can run XBMC at 480p, any help would be gratefully recieved.

Please clarify..

XBMP or XBMC....

This is the XBMP forum, yet you talk about XBMC... Have you go the two mixed up?

It is definatley version 1.1 of XBMC that I am running.

Appologies for getting the incorrect forum, but my problem is as per the one in the sticky, and I managed to fix the inital problem but I now cannot select widescreen in the xbox dash :(
