Alright, now, many of you might find this stupid, but I like to tinker. So let me explain. I planned on putting my xbox and dreamcast into a computer tower. I started with the xbox, took everything apart and put it in the tower. For some reason it will boot and then lock up. So then I put it back in the xbox case and it works fine. I thought that metal might be touching the solder points, so i used fatty risers. It still didnt boot properly. Back into the origiinal xbox case, and it works fine. Does anyone know anything about this. Oh, btw, the reason I named the thread dvd rom was because I had to take the dvd rom apart to take off the original plastic mounting pieces so that i could fit it in a bay in the tower. I think I touched the lens because when i first booted, it wouldnt read a disc at all. then i cleaned the lens with windex and it read the disc but then quit with a message about a dirty disc. also, my game file on ut was erased. I dont know, lots of crazy stuff. Anyway, if anyone has suggestions, or a working dvdrom, lmk. Thanks.
