After i got done playing a game, by mistake i turn off my xbox while the game was still inside, so i turn it back on by again mistake and i hit the top button and i guess i was holding it by mistake and i heard this loud long beep noise.

Any idea what that was?

No.. unless something has changed, Xboxes didn't have an internal speaker to provide error notices. It just flashed in certain colors.
Orange-something you can fix
Red-something you can not fix.

Are you sure it was a beep and it came from the Xbox? I just tore my dead-box down and didn't see anything on the motherboard for a speaker.

yea, no speaker inside the xbox....the only thing that makes noise in there is the hard drive and the fan.......

thats a lot of mistakes......but you do know its OK to turn your xbox off with a game in it....right....it won't hurt it.....

and holding any buttons on startup doesn't prompt anything, especially noises(unless you have a M0dd3d xbox)......which i am willing to bet money that you don't!

Yea i think thats its. Funny thing, i havent heard it before, last night was the first time. I am about play some epsn2k5 in a min or too, and see whats up. I hope my xbox aint dying tho, but if it is, its a import store at the mall around my way that fixes them for 56 bucks.
