I dont think. When I try to sign up it asks for a Zip Code and wont let me input my Postal Code. I wish it would it would save me like $50

A zip code is a 5 diget num. Try just leaving it blank if Cananda dosn't have the same deal.

But it also tells me to select my state and it only has States. If I dont pick a Province/state or postal code. they'll have no idea where to send my orders.

Good lookin out, man
Thats just what I wanted to see!
That site is Canadian and has the Pioneer 111D! plus its way less than those other links I posted. Now I can finally stop buggin the hell outta everyone for help. lol
Thanks again.
BTW, A CD-Rom drive and a DVD-Rom do the same thing other than the fact that the DVD Rom reads movies, right? I planned on replacing the CD Rom drive with the Pioneer 111D.

Np dude, I think tiger might have the sata to, so make sure you do a search for it on there.
Correct. That dvd-writer will read and write both cds and dvds. If you can you might just leave your cd rom in because some drives read better then others but I'm sure this Pionner is high quality.

Thats what I was thinkin too. All together the Pioneer 111D burner comes to $84.01 taxes in. I saw one on eBay.ca for $21.18 + 30.00 shipping. Do you have to add taxes to the $51.18 that ends up being or is that the final price?
This is only my 2nd time buying anything from eBay, last time I ordered a cord for my cell phone for $0.02 and buy the time it was done it ended up being almost $9 becuse of "seller fees" or something like that! Do you think it would be cheaper in the long run to buy the $51.18 eBay one or the one from TigerDirect?

Give me a link to the ebay auction, with ebay.com you just add the final bid and the shipping. You know most people on ebay.com ship to Ca, and you ebay.ca account works on there also.
By rule of thumb make sure the seller on ebay.com has a feedback rating over 50, and has been a ebayer for a substancile amount of time.

NO don't buy that, all that does is takes a internal sata port(for the lucky ones that have one on there motherboard) and puts it to the back of your pc, so You don't have to open it everytime.

Oh, Ok. Is there something special a Sata cable has to have to be what I need? Do I need to look for something specail it does before I place my order?
Im assuming I only need a Sata Card cause the cable is already inside the Xbox, right?

Does flashing a Hitachi Drive with the Crossed Wired method require soldering?
I have gotten my hands on the Xbox 360 OPA Firmware but when I burnt it to CD and opened it to see the files and clicked on Hitachi firmware. There is 2 files one named XTREME-HITACHI-7IN1-V2_1 and another named XTRM-HITACHI-7IN1-V1_3. Which one should I use?
BTW, This is the guide I am planning on following.

I Have The Best Of Luck!!!! Just before I go to flash the firmware on my 360, it poops out on me! This is my second 360! So now I got a $575 dollar piece of metal sitting on my TV stand. Plus the $160 I paid to MS for them to fix it the first time. For some reason I get sound though my speakers but no video. Im gunna go down to EB games and get myself a new AV Jack connector cable and see if it works. Other than that I have no idea whats wrong. If it works with the cable Im selling it before something else goes wrong. The only thing that could have gone wrong because of me is when I opened the case, Just the white plastic case part, something broke/messed up on me. But I doubt it cause I didnt even take it all the way off. All I did was open the back part where you stick in the pointy things to pop it open. It wasn't even open enough to see inside under it. I've given up on MS's customer service. If I decide to sell it in a private sale I'll need some advice. I have decided to sell;
- The Xbox 360 Console
- The Hard Drive
- The Headset
- The DVD Remote
- 2 Wireless Controllers
- 2 Games
- 1 Play and Charge Kit
All as a bundle type thing. What would you guys recommend as a price for the Xbox bundle Im selling? All together I have 6 games but I have decided to sell the other four seperately to hopefully re-coop some of my losses. Remember all my prices are Canadian too.

No way. I aint putting my money out again for a 360 that will most likely break on me. I have had enough losses. I dont think I will be buying another console as of now at least, we'll see what happens when more hit the market though. For right now I think I will just pocket the money I get from it and learn to live console-less
