FRAGGING (Non Modded xbox)
Hey all,
The xbox me and my brother share has just started fragging. We were playing sniper elite when it froze. We turned it off, and my brother was going to a relatives so he took it with him. He set it up once he got their and he has described whats happening to me and it sounds like its fragging. (everythings plugged in to). The xbox has not been opened nor modded. The xbox is displaying a message saying contact microsoft support or something similar. Any help would be nice... Oh if it is a fault, will they repair it for free, or charge. Thanks

Right...
I've plugged it in and turned it on.. its flashing dark red and green... it says "your xbox needs a service" in lots of different languages, and in the top left corner it has number 21. This any help? (I bought the xbox 2nd hand)

Did the xbox X logo appear after the error, or does that flubber animation not even appear? That error is usually a launch failure error. The xbox made it to the xbe (dash or game), but something couldn't be done so it fragged. Unfortunately, it is a very general error and hard to pinpoint.
It probably isn't a dashboard read error because games don't even launch. The HDD could be bad, but it would usuallly give a different error for that. Can you hear the HDD or the DVD drive spinning?

hmm... Well, you know the eeprom is fine. It gives error 21, so the HDD and dvd drive is probably ok. It doesn't launch a game?
Mmm, your ram could have gone bad, like once it fills a block everything corrupts. I don't think that is the problem though. It is probably your mobo fried somewhere by over heating or poor air circulation. If your HDD is in fact spinning, then you will probably need to replace your mobo (and hdd since yours is locked to your dead one). You are probably better off buying a used xbox.
