error codes dropped xbox

I bought an axbox that has error codes found out after it has been dropped and hd soundsdiff louder can I just change hd ? of stock used one?
and I have limited comp knowledge .
and and lol it says error with red green lights. thanks

 

What error code are you recieving?

 

no you wont be able to switch it with another original sounds like a error code 7 and the hdd is fuc***. your going to have to buy a modchip and a new hardrive. becuase you cannot hotswap and you dont have the eeprom....

 

I can;t just pu tin a good hd ? how hard is it to mod ?or am I just outta luck?
ya it is error code 7

 

no becuz you dont have your eeprom or hddkey so the only thing to do is buy a modchip. the solderless installation of modchips are pretty simple just search and read around the topic...

 

I found a 120 g hd for 20$us is that good? and where and how much is a mod chip?what it look lik ejust a board to push in ?
thank you

 

120 gig for $20?! Where did you find it at?! I'd like on for myself. And by the way, goto http://www.xbox-scene.com At the top, there are a list of modchips. I prefer a modchip pre-flashed with a BIOS. Than get Slayers Auto-Installer off of #xbins (tutorial for #xbins at http://www.xbox-scene.com After you get everything needed, follow the instrucstions below.
1. First of all, follow the instructions that came with your modchip on how to install it.
2.Burn Slayers Auto Installer to a blank disk (DVD-R reommended).
3. Insert the burnt disk into your Xbox DVD drive.
4. Follow the instrucstions on the Xbox screen, and good luck!
I hope I helped.

 

what mod chip should i look at?

 

I got the DUOx2. It is the cheapest, and it comes pre-flashed with a BIOS. The only problem with that, it you have to solder it on. if you do not know how to do that, or you ae not good at it, I prefer a "non-solder" or "solderless" modchip.

 

Definatly the DUOx2..it works basically like the others..and if its your first (which i think it is) u should start with that one and go to a more advanced mod chip later

 

Xenium Gold SP is what I would get(Solderless), Cost alot thou ;/

 

or the xecuter 2.6 its about 20 bux cheaper also solderless

 

can I soft mod or do I have to to make my new unlocked hd with ms dash on it work?

 

nope you have to get a modchip sorry i have to do with a xbox my freind gave me its the exact same problem....
