    Hello everyone. I've had my Xbox For quite a few years, and it's served me well. But it's started to have an issue. I turn it on and it clicks internally-click, click, click-over and over, the led flashes red and green, and comes up with the screen telling me to contact support. But it gives me no error code. I've looked several times and there's nothing.
    For a while this would happen a few times, then load normally and play fine, sometimes for days with no issues. Now, though, it seems to have finally just given up and does this every time I try to turn it on.
    I've browsed through this forum and it sounds like an HDD failure, But I'm not sure. Can anyone give me some insight into my problem?

    most probably an hdd failure. i had a similar problem, it was clicking. then it worked a couple of days normally, and then it wouldn't boot anymore. neither the xbox nor computer would recognise it anymore. just buy a new hdd and use the hdm tutorial to build your dashfiles (lock it with your eeprom key).
