    xbox issue

    hi guys hope you can help me so here goes ,my xbox dvd started to play up the tay would open and close fine but the game would not load proper . at the time that was the only issue so i contacted someone on ebay selling new drives and he told me i would have to send him the old one so he could transfer the firmware to the new one m fine i thought so I did .
    today i got the new drive back and was all excited and plugged the new one in and straight away i got the 3 red flashing light of death .can someone tell me if its a drive issue before i have it out with the guy on mondau on the phone as he might try to blag me ect .
    cheers

      Is there a secondary code?

              If it's the white 1 as you said that's power lead. Plugging this in the wrong way shorts the pcb of the drive. Id get a copy of your fir ware from the seller on ebay just I case
