Question About a Yellow Eject Led

Recommended Posts

it's a v1.4 hard modded xbox. i had sonic heroes on pause for several hours while i watched tv and did other things(in other words, i was not watching the xbox screen to see if it shot an error code or something). i have the xbox sitting behind my tv so i don't see everything that it does. i looked behind the tv and a saw the the eject led had turned yellow. i shut the xbox off immediately because i feared it was overheating so i didn't look on the tv to see if it was displaying an error code. anyway, what causes the yellow led? btw, it was a solid yellow led, not flashing.

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

 

it works fine when i restart it. i think it has done this before. it seems to do it after it has been left on for a while.

i'm running xbmc4gamers. i have the screensaver turned off and i had a gaming running but paused the last time it gave me the solid yellow led.

Possibly there is a different config file that has a screen saver set as well.

I have a issue with the evox config file once before cause a conflict with the IGR so it might be worth a look.

I have had that game paused for 3 hours now without any problems.

You don't have a wd green drive do you?

The green HDD's are a power save and shutdown after not been used and because the Xbox had Cache drives that will cause a problem.

Some of the seagate drive's also have a Advanced power mode to save energy.

The drive in the Xbox that has been paused for 5+ hours now has a Seagate 3tb, Ver1.4, 128mb, HDMI out(component), and is connected to the home network.

As this Xbox is a XBMC4Gamers only( The only other daash is the MS dash) I have removed the evox.ini file from C drive

can't all that power saving stuff be shut off in the settings menu of xbmc4gamers?

There is somewhere a hard drive spin down timer It might be worth having a look in the settings.

I can have a look in the morning a it's now 1:45am so I should get some sleep.
