well you might look into buying a new power supply,I have seen them on ebay here for $15 -> http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=20385&item...

or you can go to llamma.com and get it here -> http://secure.llamma.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=22&produc...

yes you can, but you need two things.
1. a modchip with an external switch
2. the actual non-backed up game disk

Hey you guys i have a similar problem, my xbox just stopped working all of a sudden!! Well from what i can see the power doesnt come on at all, but when i look in the back the ethernet light still comes on green when i hit the power button, but the xbox doesnt even turn on for a second.
Question: Would this be the hard drive or the power box thing?
well thanks any ideas are welcome.

does anything show up on the TV? if not it sounds like a power issue. Is the ethernet light blinking all the time or does it blink for a second then doesnt work at all after that? But overall it seems like a power issue

nothing shows up on the tv and the light on the front of the xbox doesnt come on at all, the ethernet light just blinks once or something and then stops, alrite i should try changing the power supply, or maybe just the cord 1st right?

It may be a the power cord, I would try that before replacing the power supply. you might be in luck too, microsoft has been doing a recall on some of their power cords, so I would go to xbox.com and see if your xbox qualifies, if it does then you will get a free power cord, if not just buy one. they are pretty cheap too (about $5) and the worst that could happen is it still doesnt work so you can return it. if it still doesnt work try replacing the power supply.
good luck
