When playing on my modded xbox with a stock hdd, sometimes the xbox eject button turns amber and stays that colour. The xbox will run fine and plays the game with no difference but i am just wondering what the amber light means ? Whats a good tempature for the xbox cpu ? mine somtimes gets up to 122 degrees F , could this be a heat problem with the light?

mine runs at 130 degrees no problem, maybe it has something to do with the bios you used?

when i use config magic.. it turns the eject light amber... could be just something in the code of the game or app to turn the eject light amber?!?

That could be the answer , but i am still not clear on what application or whatever running, is causing it.

if the x2/evo-x/anything else bios loaded (liek if u started the xbox w/o a real disk in the drive) then it can turn the light orange if its programmed in the bios. the bios u downloaded may have that set as default... mine does the same.. it lets me know the bios has been loaded. u can use a bios tool (xbtool) to make the changes to stuff like that and set it so its still green when the bios loads.
