Sorry if this has been covered already... but all threads mentioning this seemed to have to do with softmodding. and also its hard to follow through these threads that smart ppl use.. they skip info they think is basic..
anyways... my buddies xbox is chipped, he accidentally went on xboxlive (he doesnt have a subsription), then his xbox like shut off
Now everytime it boots it brings up this error 21 service required call customer support... this happends before dashboard loads.
could someone staight up tell me whats up with this, any solutions.
greats thanks

you mean that you have modchip inside the xbox and it gives error 21?
if so, make sure that your modchip is on.

**Important, i just looked for the mod chip....(he told me he had a mod chip which he doesnt) So apparently now its a softmod error 21..
I have looked around a great deal, searched google, read several of the most confusing forums trying to find the answer. May someone send a link to guide or somthing, which tells you how to fix a softmod xbox error 21? with rather simple steps for beginners
*sorry for mix up
great thanks, much appreciated

did you put original hdd back to xbox?
Connect everything back as original. Then turn on xbox again. Hopefully, you will get error 21. Then do hotswap.
If you connect as original and still have green/red flashing with nothing on TV, then I CAN'T help.
If you connect as original and turn on xbox, you see the green bios boots up with the big X and XBOX. Then tell me what happens after, error code, everything.

do you know what is primary IDE and secondary IDE on PC? There are 2 IDE cables on PC.
Usually, pc's hdd is on the primary IDE. So leave it alone.
The secondary IDE is for dvd drives. So unplug it from dvd drives. But IDE cable still connect to pc's motherboard. Then use it to connect to xbox's hdd.
Leave jumper on xbox's hdd alone.

well just continue to boot up pc. Then open xplorer360 and try to read xbox's hdd.
Usually when you see microsoft logo show up under big X and XBOX, and quickly remove ide cable from xbox hdd. Then connect the from pc to it.

wait a minute.
how do you connect xbox hdd to pc?
pc's hdd and xbox's hdd are on 2 different IDE cables on PC. The secondary IDE cable is for xbox's hdd only. NO dvd drives.

did you hit the break/pause key when pc booting up? After connect ide cable to xbox hdd, then hit any key to continue booting pc.
PC should boot as normal condition.
