    There is a seal that is broken when you open the case. Flashing requires that you open the case. Theres no way MS will touch it, even if you offer to pay them.

    It may be that whoever flashed your drive will know enough about Xbox to fix or to suggest someone who can fix this for you.

    maybe this isnt anything to do with the mods?xbox 360's have a bad reputation for giving you the red ring of death.google the towel squeeze method,its where you wrap a towel around the xbox and give the sides a good squeeze,and magically it comes back on,also on youtube search the methods,theres one where a lad got the red ring of death,gave his xbox a good hard smack,and all of a sudden the light went back to green and the xbox was playable no harm done,plus flashing is a pretty risky job,i dont have the cajones or the skill to flash,i've never done anything past a modchip,and yes microsoft would definitely be able to identify whether its flashed or not,them boffins put in lsot of seals to make sure your not making their ****ty consoles better,if your interested,i would trade a dell axim x51v pda loaded with software and a 1gb memory stick worth 400euro for the 360,pm me if ur interested
