Hello everyone;
Lately I have been having problems with my xbox
- Games that ran on my xbox hard drive  use to 100% now sometimes I would get the dirty disk error, or the game would freeze. I would have to keep restarting the xbox until it works. (I tried erasing the cache, sometimes it would work, sometimes it wont)
- Sometimes when I turn on the xbox I get error 21, or 13. But after restarting it once or twice, it works
- Sometimes the xbox freezes randomly
- Also when I am playing a video on XBMC at times it will automatically stop the video. Unless i play it using DVDplayer
What is/are problem?
It use to work perfectly, until recently
A little info about my xbox;
it has a 500gb WD hard drive, formated using xbox partionior 32k
Any help would be great

sorry to say this, but this has happen to me as well

it maybe your HDD is dieing  :'(

So just back up all your stuff if possible

See that happen with mine too
So wat i did was back up all 250GB
and reformatted it and that did the trick

Dont know if that will help u though sorry :-\

thanks for the quick reply snipes, but the hard drive is fairly new only a few not even a year on it, how old was your hard drive?

Sadly sounds like a dying box to me. I have had one in that had those symptoms and it was modded by me with a 120gig drive in it i redid the drive and nothing. I tried a new 160 i had and it did the same thing. Finally it just died on me and i was out $50 dollars cause i gave the guy back his money and told him there was nothing i could do and he was rather pissed but he got his money back but yeah it sounds like the actual xbox hardware is dying.

Sorry late response, but it was no more then 5 months old, just got onr of those 1 in a 1000 drives that go bad :P

thanks guys
rattmansam it was the xbox put the hdd in another one and it works beautifully

Figured, its happened to me before. and your welcome.
