XBOX help
We were playing some HALO when it suddenly wouldn't work.. the system stars upa nd all, even plays back music stored on the HDD, but when we put in ANY DVD game or movie it won't recognize it. It's been doing this alot since I first got it(refurb'd) but before I would just reinsert the DVD and it would work for a while. Now it won't do it at all.
So far I have switched the ribbon cables out, took apart the DVD-rom and cleaned it up dut and all, cleaned the lens carefully, and stuff, no dice though.
Any ideas? Maybe I can buy a new DVD-rom for it somewhere? What kind? Where?

I heard that only certain DVD-ROM's work with XBOX, I have like the original and stuff, so... what and where can I buy one?
Perhaps it is time, time to install Linux....

Thats the one you want. Im gonna do this mod for sure. Ittl even allow ya to read cd-r. Great for divx backups you already have on cd-r.
You cannot replace the original drive, only add an additional drive.
And with a little creativity you could prolly make your second drive removable.
//edit: sorry I was wrong. You cannot read the originals with this method.
