Hi All I posted this on XBOX Media Centre and was told its not a media centre problem but a chip issue can anyone help.
My original post was
"Hi All im very new with Xboxes, however a freind upgraded my 2 week old xbox to XBMC 1.1.0 and it worked fine for one week however at the end of the week i turned it on and the CD would'nt open.
I pressed on and off still nothing and nothing on screen now i ger FRAG after 3 reboots and i have a black screen.
the shop i bought it from thinks i did something hes removed the chip and gave me the original Hard Drive which i have tried i still get the same even with everything disconnected i get the same.
Is there anyway back from this ?
the chop seem to think it's a new Mother board or nothing.
Please dont tell me that its knackered all help appreciated."
To add more light the shop i bought the xbox from says its a mobo issue that cant be recovered he has shown me the hard drive working in another machine but has "Told" me that the chip worked in another machine but i hav'nt seen it.
If there is any answer he said hell do the labour but wont replace the mobo.
Im realy desperate I don't have the money to replace the mobo so can anyone help thanks.

If youre going to be a dick, no one will help you. He said 'moving to gen hardware'. Gen Hardware = General Hardware. Get it? He didnt say the chip wasnt genuine. Read before being an ass next time.
PS. Learn to spell. Its Genuine, not jenuine. How would you get jenuine from 'gen' then? Some people...

I appologise for being a "dick" but im a but touchey at the moment as i'm new to xbox's always had PS2's and the shop which I bought my machine from refuses to help even though it seems its a hardware issue but im looking for the evidance to back that up.
again i'm sorry about jumping to conclussions but please don't shorten words that could be important.
