error 21 - 21 - anywhere -
This error says that the machine was booted to display a error, basically someone told the machine to reboot (or launch a xbe) with this flag, and the error code just means its been rebooted by the flag
This occurs frequently when the xbox is unable to boot due to dashboard changes being made (ie Gcue true blue hasnt been resigned, parts of the stock dash are missing - incomplete FTP backups copied to a new HDD for example).
Fix if I were you i would get a slayer 2.7 iso off bittorrent and burn it to a cd-r once you do that I will help you with the rest

Use AID 3.0
to fix error 21
or uninstall the softmods go to your HDD and delete anything taht has to do with soft mods except sid 4.0 and the other linux files keep those 2and delete the rest the reinstall the mod but dont forget to make and Ms back-up and eeprom back-up

It depends on the drive in your xbox mine has no problem reading them(cd-r's and dvd-r's), while my friends wont read cd-r's but it will read dvd-r's

i cant uninstall the softmod i tried to goto splintercell linux profile to uninstall and reinstall but i cant it just goes to error 21 i think my only chance of getting my xbox back to life is that using either slayer or Auto installer deluxe but i could try it with cd rw

DAMN, no luck i tried them both on cd rw and cd r but it wont boot so i am doing a usb hack throught the memory card it boots to a screen that looks like binary code? i know the xbox architecture is just like a pc but binary code on the xbox? well anyway could i boot the xbox by putting it on the mem stick that connects throught the usb

Look for wrighting on the cable if it says "LAN" anywhere on it it will work. If it fits into your pc it will work.

you will need to find the ip address of you xbox you can do this in evox by going to system managment.
Your xbox password and user name will be
xbox (for both)
and you should use 21 in the box that asks you for the port to use.
