This is odd. Have you installed EvoX or any other alternate dash and tried running it?

I would say that the hdd is not locked locked, but if the original isn't working then thats not it. It sounds like the retail kernal you loaded is bad. You can download new ones at www.xbox-hq.com. I had the same problem. I ended up reloading my old settings in the xenium menu. It didn't seem to work at first, but after I turned it off and left it for awhile( due to frustration) and came back, it worked. Whatever you do make sure you have the clock set right and don't leave it unplugged for more than 4 hours. The clock will reset and it will cause the chip to malfunction. Then you will have to restart from the beginning.

Is there the possibility that your DVD drive is a Thompson and your friends' is a Philips or Samsung? The problem you are describing sounds like the drive doesn't read it correctly.

The Thompson drives are very unreliable and could be reading the game wrong, so the DVD2HardDrive program could very well be messing up because it can't read it well. Do other games work on it? If they do then I really don't know what it could be, but if they don't work, you could either get a new laser (not really worth it for a Thompson), or get a new drive (Philips is recommended because it can be adjusted to play all media).

Samsung comes new in the box playing every kind of media you could want it to. From the way it sounds, I would say it is the drive. I started out with the Thompson and even xbox-scene told me not to use Memorex media because the Thompson wouldn't read it at all. Turns out that is the only type it would read. The Thompsons are too flaky and way to unreliable. I would spend the $60 for a Phillips or the $70 for a Samsung. Or you could see if your friend would swap you drives. Although it sounds like that drive has deteriorated enough that he won't want it.

im buying a modchip pretty soon and is xenium ice really the best one, ive looked at a couple and the only real advantage is the ability to not have to solder, i have looked at alot and am leaning towards the x3 chip as in soldering really isnt a problem for me, does the xenium ice support cromwell linux?

All modchips support cromwell. It's the only bios that the chip manufactures expect you to use lol.

This might be a bit off topic but i need A LOT of help, i am thinking of buying a premodded xbox with the xenium ICE mod chip installed... do any of you guys know a quality site to buy this item from.
I was thinking moddedxboxs.com and I was wondering if anyone had any experience buying a premodded xbox from any site and what anyone can recommend so I dont get ripped off... i just plug it in and I can play burned games on DVD -r discs, it has all the right bios and dashboards and all that... and i can still use Xbox live
Any info is greatly appreciated
thanks for any help

Hrdrk20,
I chose the Xenium ICE over the X3 because it has the Xenium OS, meaning the chip is recoverable if a bad flash occurs, and it is much easier to get everything set up for playing game backups, it has a builtin FTP server so you can put all the EvoX files in it from your FTP client on your PC and then it can flash the EvoX bios from the hard drive or a CD.
HeadHntr1,
I suggested the Philips because with a potentiometer adjustment, it can play all media, and the Samsung cannot play DVD+R, which is needed to backup the larger games to a DVD9, which is currently only in +R format.

I understand where you are coming from, but my samsung plays them all. I guess its kinda like my thompson only plays memorex. The os on the xenium is unbeatable in my opinion. It is almost dummy proof. I wouldn't test that though. Everyone finds something that works for them. And it is usually a little different from everyone else.

As for garret, www.xbox-scene.com has a lot of info on finding reliable places. You can also check out www.ozxodus.com. They are the ones that make the Xenium chip. Good Luck!! Let me know if you need more help.

FTP into your Xbox and delete the files in the E:\CACHE folder. Your games should run then. Since you have the Xenium Ice also the new update to their OS 2.2.1 offers the option to delete the E:\CACHE folder files right from the Xenium OS also.

When you post in a thread, try to read it first, especially if its only 2 pages.

I havn't tried what you said yet but i just found this out. I tried all my games and the ones that don't work are the xbox live compatible games, so i unplugged the link cable going from my xbox to our wireless router and the games that didn't work do work fine. is this because of the cache thing you were talking about or something else?
