Yesterday I was FTPing some emulators and apps and everything was going good, I would reboot every now and then for things to save. After I rebooted again now my hard drive doesn’t boot at all and the world xbox and xecuter 2 stay on the title screen and it just hangs there and freezes up, it keeps on happening, idk if I could fix it or if it’s even worth it to. Any help would be appreciated. This was a modded console I was gonna give to my brother, I didn’t mod it myself but would like to learn in the future how to. Thank you.

Moderator Edit: Hey all. Currently having issues with my xbox. Have opened it 3 times now to re-examine it, and I have NO idea what I need to do to get it to turn on again. Here's a video I made showing the mobo, and explaining everything I've done and checked. Please let me know what you think, I'd love to do whatever I can to avoid needing to buy another box. Literally any help at all is greatly appreciated, please let me know. I read around some more and I've read it Might be a blown transistor, (As this seems to be a common problem with 1.6 mobos, which I believe mine is, last time I checked. Was a couple years ago, tho I'm pretty confident it's a 1.6.) or that I might need to solder new capacitors, or new cable, etc. Man, I'm just wondering if these might just be too old to buy anymore. Seems like nowadays they just break out of nowhere, and no matter how many I buy and replace, they just break down anyways Any way to prevent that from happening? Is there any kind of scene out there to completely overhaul these things to make them actually last longer than a few years? Please let me know what I should do, and Thanks in advanced!
