    Here is what the error code 21 is telling you:

    21 This error says that the machine was booted to display a error, basically someone told the machine to reboot (or launch a xbe) with this flag, and the error code just means its been rebooted by the flag

    Has this Xbox been modded?

    You can do 1 of 2 things to fix this problem...

    1) Get a new motherboard for your Xbox w/ a matching hard drive (note: ver 1.6 motherboards do not fit in ver 1.0-1.5 cases)

    2) If it does not have a mod chip in it then you can chip it (I prefer the Xecuter3 chip) and just get a new hard drive.

    Check out llamma's site for a motherboard/hard drive combo, http://secure.llamma.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=motherboard&x=3&y=13
