I have a hard modded xbox(chip:aladdin no idea what version,software: evox 2.5 slayer auto installer) that works fine but lately the dvd rom hasnt been able to read any disks, or im getn the dirty disc error screen. So i bought a new phillips drive and i placed it into my xbox. The led on the middle of my xbox flashes green and red and i get the error meessage saying that i should send my xbox to customer support in green. I'm guessing i have to back every thing up from my xbox hdd to my pc. Then re-install evox and then dump every thing back to my xbox hdd.the IDE cable and the yellow cable are secure but is there a flash that i can use so I dont have to re-modd my xbox with evox. I had a thompson and swithched to a philips, and my thompson was in my xbox at the time I moddded it. The error number on the top left of the screen is 08. I'm sure all cabbles are connected properly and my xbox works fine when the thompson is in but when i put my philips the xbox goes to error code 08 . But do I have to do any thing to re-flash my xbox or do i have to back every thing up then load evox again. Is that what I have to do, If you have any idea what I'm doing wrong or suggestions to help me plz reply. THX for reading.

You have a duff philips drive..It's also possible you have dislodged the chip when changing drives. Try the tommy again and see if you get a normal boot, if so then if you feel brave try adjusting the laser.

There isn't any point messing with the philips drive. It's a failed board..Get your money back on it.

Just for info.. Llamma has a sale on with the Samsung dvd drive at $59
