Hi,
Im using my xbox for almost 1 and half year now and lately my xbox cant read the disc very well n last morning when I try to load up the disc,
come out an error message saying "ur xbox need service.plz contact xbox customer support".

anyone know what cause this porblem? is it because of the chip?
Im using aladins chip.

and can u guyz recommend any shop that can provide excellent service?.


Thx ..

Maybe your Xbox needs support. Try contacting customer support Go to Djinn. He's reliable and provides excellent service

Djinn? hmm,I heard bout him b4.
his shop at OU is it?
okey,will do..

wth is happening with my xbox

only can think of 2 possibilities...

1. your dvdrom is KO-ing
2. your modchip is KO-ing

well, you can try a simple troubleshooting by opening up ur xbox, loosen the hd and the dvd ide cable, then tighten it back...if its still gives you trouble, most prolly the dvd started to show its age....
try starting by not booting up the modchip, but off course, u still need ur xbox ori dashboard to work...
like bro judge said, either ur dvd or modchip started to go kaput....

djinn is no more working at OU, you can pm him or call him directly regarding ur xbox prob...need to meet up somewhere i supposed...but, he's very reliable coz i got my xbox from him...still in good condition accept my network port kaputed on me, my mistake actually, hehehe....

does the 'require service' page appear even with no disc inside? if yes im assuming HDD failure, quite common. anyway, on the error screen there should be a number on the top left/right (cant remember), that's the error code. refer to this page to find out what they mean.

yes!!! u r correct!!!

even without any disc inside,it still give that error message.the no. is 16.

from the site u give me,the error code means :
"16 - dashboard - Other files to do with dashboard / dashboard settings (specific dashboard error)"


so it is dashboard error...hmm..what can i do
