popsicle xbox

my soft modded xbox only starts up after being in the freezer for 10 minutes - wtf!

anybody? please help!

 

Putting an xbox in the freezer? lol

 

Does it get that hot!

Jeez....Make sure you don't leave it on for to longer, it could go boom.

 

so how did u figure out that it only works after being in the freezer

 

woh... when your xbox wouldn't start, your first idea was to jam it in the freezer? thats just a little bit wierd

 

lol, the freezer trick, that is the most common sign of a hard drive about to go, you might want to consider putting a modchip in there and then buying a new hard drive. This also might be the problem http://www.llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/xbox_locks_up.htm

 

re: thekingo7- says "This also might be the problem http://www.llamma.com/xbox/Repairs/xbox_locks_up.htm"

that's where I got the freezer trick, odd, but it does work - cleaning it out did nothing

whatever - might take your advice and mod the hell out of it, have nothing to lose!

thanks

 

yeah seriously, if you have done the llama stuff and its still giving you problems, I will bet almost anything its a bad hard drive, stick a modchip on there and a new hard drive.

btw when you say it wont turn on, do you mean it just wont boot, on you press the button and nothing happens, no lights
