Error 16 !!!!!!!What should i do?
- Thread starter dcvolki
- Start date
Let me guess...a new HDD too.
This is because your xbox has lost it's time and wants to find an MS dashboard to set its clock..
if u put back the stock HDD is all ok??
If so set time and then rpelace HDD

Blinking blue? Are you talking about the Hard Drive light?dcvolki said:
You are not missing anything. That just means that your chip is DISABLED (The X is RED) and the hard drive is working.

Ok U should really be in X3 Bios Flashing Support (you've moved on a level)
make your CD as it states here it has to be an ISO
http://www.teamxecuter.com/flashbios/cd.htm
I don't like CD flashing as theres too many dependencies on media etc etc..can u flash or have u tried flashing via HTTP?
k i have done that but it doesnt work and i dont know how am i gonna able to do it from http..im a newbie in xbox...
Did you use a CD-R or a CD-RW?
The XBOX doesn't like CD-R media (at least the ones that I own!)
Also, a NEW CD-RW seems to always work the best.
Like sb122606 said, the HTTP method is WAY better, but if you have to use a CD, make sure you use one that will work.

i cannot do http i just read it says i need to connect my pc to my xbox which i dont have the cable for it right now and i was using cd-r so i need a cd-rw i guess it seems like my install is gonna wait tomorrow...
Hey ..good morning icecreamguys!!
dcvolki ...theres lots of posts on flashing via http but baically
configure you pc with a static ip address say 192.168.0.1 mask 255.255.255.0
plug xbox into pc using 'x' over cable and then boot cromwell...
select flash via network
it will time out and give a default address...type this address into your web browser and it should pop up a flash screen..
go from there..
i'm out now guys..good luck

best to get it networked...it will make it so much easier to add apps and dashboards..
also if u have broadband u can get benefits of playing net games by using xlink kai and get RSS news feeds on your dash..or even shoutcast radio!!
a way to go before that but all poss once networked
No question..
I sold an XBOX to someone yesterday that did not have a network option and I quickly remembered how much the network adds.
The RSS feeds are great and if you are using XBMC you get song titles / cd names etc. when playing your audio CDs.
The Shoutcast radio is nice too..
Really should try and network it at some point.
