Hi guys I was trying to mod my xbox by using a tutorial I found on here which involved powering on the xbox and then plugging the xbox HD into a spare IDE cable on my PC. All was going well until the xbox started showing error 16 which is something to do with the dvd drive. so after trouble shooting I found that 1. the error doesnt show when the HD is not connected after trying heaps of other things which I wont mention I fried the HD. Now my question is this. Will chipping and getting a new HD make my xbox work again or is the whole thing screwed. and do I need a new DVD drive possibly
Yikes... Where were you getting your information from??? To answer your question, a modcip will fix your problems. What 's wrong with your HDD? Read my tutorials to show you how to repair an Error 16 (HDD Clock error, not DVD error)
