    Hi guys

    i have an xbox with an aladin chip + 120gb hdd
    knocked it with my foot 1 nite but it seemed to be fine, so i continued to play it
    switched it off
    2 weeks later i went to switch it on and all i get is a black screen
    when i press the dvd drive button it flashes red/orange and doesnt open

    any idea's ?
