lots of people have taken apart their xboxs and done things you can only imagine id say your hdd is fried, so i would suggest getting a cheap mod chip and then you can diagnose your xbox better that way. no error codes in the corner?
sounds like your original xbox hard drive is dead. Look on ebay for a replace for the original hard drive, or buy a cheap modchip and use a bigger hard drive. very simple to do. cheers
