Well guys, I managed to completely kill my XBOX 360

I had a problem, my Liteon kept opening and I thought it was because of a bad flash or something

Well, I just got my new BENQ drive, connected it to the XBOX and I'm having the same problem, the drive keeps opening.

So I reckon I fried my mainboard or something, very sad stuff...

Sad to hear that mate, I carnt understand how your main board is causing your drive to open, You mean your main board in the drive coz if so then dont swap the flashed board into the new drive just try flashing it aswell. Im not sure but I carnt imagine its completely done when all thats happening is drive is opening, someone here should have some knowledge of it as very helpful place.

I got banned last week and its been killing me without live, I get paid monday so Im off to buy an elite bundle pack with MW2 and Forza 3 for 200 quid. No point in getting a pre owned just to flash again might aswell get a new one that I aint gonna touch, Plus I dont have a CK3 and I heard the new liteon drive in the elite. Have only done a Benq.

Sorry to hear tho man.

Well it's like this:

When I press the eject button, the drive slides out (XBOX dashboard says "opening...", then switches right back to "closing..." (without me doing anything), drive slides back in, then there are 2 weird noises (always the same ones and always in the same intervall) coming from inside the drive, dashboard switches to "opening..." again and the drive slides out.

Sometimes at the end it says "opening..." and it doesn't open, but when I switch off the XBOX after that (hoping that the drive will be recalibrated or something) the drive slides out every single time.

I read about the problem of the XBOX still being in vendor mode, but I did the outro and everything with the MTK tab in Jungle Flasher.


I flashed the drive with Jungle Flasher and iXtreme 1.6, first a liteon 83850c and now i got a benq and flashed it with the liteon key, but nothing, green light on front keeps flashing, drive keeps opening.

Couldn't find any fault with the eject button either.
