I have the first release Xbox and I have been having long load times and dirty disk errors. I just today picked up a Samsung DVD-rom drive to replace the original... problem solved for 70 bucks.....to the best of my knowlage you can't mod the newer boxes?????

Clean the disk. It shouldn't be the xbox's problem. The thompsons didn't ship out that late I think.

Yea they did, but they are much better than the old ones. I bought a box in February 2003, and it has a Thomson, but has given me almost no problems since then.

The early boxes had the Thompson drives and over time there performance declines, such as in my case and my solution was as mentioned above. I'm sure there are variants that can affect each box individually and these should be handled by " A certified service center " in most cases.....Mine works great now!!!! Yippie!
