means. To make everyone's life easier (Mods, Members, and n00bs), I am going to post a listing of all of the error codes with some explaination of what they mean and how to fix them. I hope xbox error 16 softmod fix this thread will help everyone with there Xbox error problems. Also, I dont want to take credit for compiling the information (but I will take credit posting it!). I have to credit OCnewB and Superfro of the Xbox-Scene forums. He is the one who orignally compiled all the information, I just put it here on our forum, but I did clean it up a little, added some imput, and kept only the most recent xbox error 13 updated fixes(the original had a lot of fixes that were out of date). So with all that being said, Behold: [bold]XBOX ERROR CODES EXPLAINED[/bold] For those of you that don't know or are not sure if or when you have seen an error, you will see an error during the normal boot up sequence. Instead of your booting the M$ dashboard or Hacked Dashboard (Evox, UnleashX, Avalaunch, etc.), there will be an message on the screen that says, "Your Xbox Requires Service" and you will see a number on the upper left hand corner of the screen <- this is your error code number. The error codes are listed below Beware, you wont see the bootldr error's because (thanks to: Lordvader129) : "when you see this" is not entirely accurate, you never see the bootloader errors, as they are one that cause the reboot/FRAGs [bold]2 - bootldr - Eeprom check failed[/bold] When you see this error most of the times you have flashed something wrong. Or you dropped solder on your eeprom chips. [bold]4 - bootldr - Ram check failed[/bold] Your Xbox ram chips are wasted. Maybe you dropped a little solder on it (try to remove it CAREFULLY!). Note, if they are fried, removing solder won't fix them). Maybe you were static when you touched the ram chips. They are

Can anyone tell me what that is, and how to fix it? I have an xbox in pieces in my lap right now, searching the internet for information without any luck.

NOT to upgrade your Xbox, I'm pleased to say I've got it working again. It's taken a long time, a great deal of http://dougbelshaw.com/blog/2007/06/20/howto-fix-your-xbox-after-messing-about-with-the-eeprom/ trial-and-error, and some head-scratching. To save at least one other person some hassle, here's my ‘journey' from a useless Xbox to one that runs Xbox Media Center, etc. I'll cut to the chase: you don't want to be reading this post unless you've had the same problems as I had. It's information you could have gone to bed xbox error without knowing. Trust me. Problem: Error code 21 on an Xbox v1.0 with an Xecuter2 modchip installed. Solution (briefly stated): Using ConfigMagic (comes with Slayer's Evox Autoinstaller) to manually enter MAC address (made-up) and unlock Xbox hard disk (using code from backed-up hddinfo.txt file). Transfer of backed-up copy of BIOS.bin to C: drive of Xbox via FTP. Re-flashing of original xbox error EEPROM using ConfigMagic. Moral of the story: Always have a copy of your Xbox's EEPROM backed-up somewhere! In the process of playing about with the BIOS, trying to get rid of the ‘flubber' animation when the Xbox first boots, I was playing around with ConfigMagic. This program comes as part of the excellent Slayer's Evox Autoinstaller and enables you to lock/unlock your hard disk and flash your EEPROM from a file on your hard disk. Once I'd accidentally flashed it with basically and empty EEPROM file, I was fairly stuck. I couldn't re-unlock the hard disk nor could I FTP into the Xbox due to not having the information that had been previously part of the EEPROM. This information contains things like a long string of numbers that is unique to your hard disk, etc. Pretty much every site that came up when I searched on Google documented how to unlock the hard disk by connecting it to the PC and running the Liveinfo Linux distribution. That's not an option for me - we're l
