I dunno how you do it mate but i watch all your videos when you fix things. I cannot believe you made me sit and watch you fix a fridge for an hour! love the videos !
Thank you mate. The fridge one was surprisingly watchable. When I have to watch the videos back after editing and processing them it can be painful as I know the outcome, and have already watched all the bits during editing. BUT for some reason that Fridge video was even enjoyable for me!!!!
why on Earth am i sitting here and watching you fix things when im not even looking to fix anyting myself. i cant put my finger on what exactly you are doing so good with video making but you are definietly doing something great here. so dont stop
I swear this is the best youtube channel ever. I watch this when im eating, i watch this in the car, i watch you everywhere lol. I love your content man.
Glad you got it up and running! The problem with these modern systems is (for security reasons) the drive has a signature - an ID that the XBOX has stored in its flash ROM also, and when updating etc it checks the drive to make sure it has the same signature as the XBOX expects. If the signature is different they won't allow an update because you could be using some hacked drive or drive replacement solution. It's a little bonkers tbh because with the right level of hacking any replacement drive could be made to present the correct (original) signature, but I guess its a lot of work to hack these. Same thing was true of the 360 I believe.
Yes, I know regards the 360 - I was one of the people looking at the 8051 firmware when they first started looking at the 360 DVD. In theory the same thing is probably possible on the XB1 drives, but they will have beefed up the security since the 360. Maybe the XB1 drives have already been hacked - no idea!
@Ellis Actually it doesn't apply to the OG Xbox. Instead, the Hard drive is the one tied to the console but it can be easily replaced with modding tools
@@wormchickenwizard I gave up on mine years ago, because my OG Xbox died and it had a replaced hard drive in and I didn't have soldering skills to replace the drive by doing the TSOP mod, I guess thats the one you mean?
Hello vince, So today I turned my xbox on and the error e100 happened! Stuck on 58% something went wrong! I went to a local computer shop twice to purchase USB stick 64gb and external hard drive caddy! I tried the offline update method with no joy. So with that matter I had to remove hard drive as I gained access to the inside the sata cable from Blue Ray disc drive to the main motherboard was actually disconnected. Dont know how as my xbox hadn't moved but I reconnected the cable in hope it would fix the problem as you said on this video to check all connections. I put the xbox back together turned it on with the troubleshooter and reinstalled the offline update! It passes the58% stage and it's now currently up and running. Thank you vince and to everyone else who gets this problem in the future and willing to open your xbox check the connections before purchasing a new hard drive/console
Wow a you tuber that admits they make money on thier videos and only 1 ad for a 30+ minute video!? I fuckin love this guy and will keep following! Very informative and entertaining. Thanks my mate!
Vince you have inspired me to learn as much as I can about repairing electronics and have given me a goal in life. Just wanted to say thank you for all the videos. Keep up the great work mate!!!!!
Thank you and thanks for the comment and watching them. There are loads of good TH-camrs to watch that are really good at electronics. It is amazing to have this much information at our fingertips (we are very lucky).
hi Vince... you mentioned you didn't want people sending you stuff in to fix because you didn't want to let them down if you couldn't fix it... but what if people wanted to send you things to fix like as in a donation... freely ... if you will... without asking for it back fixed or not... to do with it what you like? maybe you could fix things... cover you're costs and donate them to kids/people that are not well off...? just an idea. good video again.
Hi Vince, The way you try and fix things is exactly how I started. I never believe anything is unfix able with a little patience and good old google generally sorts it out. Yes your right about the bluray drive, it has a key thats locked to that motherboard, if they dont match then you get the errors you see. A quick swap of the board would of sorted it, but am glad you went a different direction at first as that is part of the problem solving routine for us amateurs. Anyway Im a big fan of your series and always watch the guides. Good luck in the future from Daz
I worked out what the issue was as soon as you said he swapped the optical drive, microsoft have for a decade or more tied their optical drives to the board for anti tampering. Did he ever explain to why he brought a new optical drive and swapped it?
this helped me immensely, thank you. I went through the same exact troubleshooting process you did - I ended up reconditioning the old drive by cleaning the intake roller with rubbing alcohol and applying some white lithium grease to the exposed plastic cogs and didn't even have to do a bd drive daughterboard swap. Upon closer inspection of the replacement drive that was causing the error i noticed it was a different model, DG-6M2S-XXX (dated 2015) instead of the original DG-6M1S-XXX dated 2014, hope this helps someone as i suspect MAYBE replacing a dead drive with the same exact drive model would avoid this issue. anyway thank you so much for making this video, i was pulling my hair out - at least i learned how to format a new xbox hdd and got a 500gb spare and an extra disc drive in the process
You are absolutely brilliant. It was staring me in the face the entire time never wouldve thought using a 01b instead of the original 03b DVD would hinder the xbox so much. You just saved the few remaining hairs in my head.
i always wait for your uploads..there is such a good vibe about your content...keep it up bro..you deserve much more subs...much respect to you comin all the way from a fan in Dubai
I love your channel! Even tho I don't fix things this is addictive a wonderful channel! I see this on my phone, tablet and also Switch! Loving your channel man!
Badass bro,, you totally got me wanting to start working on these myself...did my first controller mod, hard drive swap and shell swap yesterday day and have a new hobby im about to dive into..thx alot for your video man
I had this on the old 360 , there is a key on the firmware of the cdrom, you could copy it over to the new drive from a pc , but it had to be a certain chipset on the pc motherboard can't remember which one now that long ago , don't know if the newer ones are the same but judging by the fix it is still the case ... great job Vince !!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Another great video @My Mate Vince! I appreciate your methodical way of troubleshooting issues. I have also attempted Sega Game Gear repairs and so far I'm about 50% successful. It seems like the LCDs have their own issue unfortunately. I'm going to try transplanting an LCD from a bad board to a good board. You are my inspiration!
love your vids. i loved fixing things when i was young. i became a heating engineer fixing boilers and central heatings for a living. you should try that
Hey Vince, you most likely my favorite youtuber because you seem quite helpful for most people like me and show us things that some of us have never even heard of or tryed doing before keep it up! 😉 👍 #MyMateVince
Great video! I had the same problem. I unplugged my drive while it was applying the update, then plugged it back in and it worked. I did not use my console for a whole semester so I thought the update messed with it but I believe that the Xbox checks the hardware when updating
Absolute Legend. Thank you. fixed by putting back the dvd drive i used to fix other console. Lesson: Dont just change the dvd drive from other console cause its cool , Motherboard knows what belongs to her.
Friend thank you very much for the tutorial, and to all who with their comments provided alternatives. I had already tried almost everything to fix the ERROR E100, until I stopped to watch your video and if you were right, format the hdd with the win program, create the usb osu1 and reinstall the original cd-rom boot. Problem solved my Xbox One S is alive again, updated and working properly. Thank you from Puerto Rico
Hi I just want to say big thank you mate. You have helped me to fix my console the original xbox one. My solution for error e100 00000703 80910006 was to plug only disk board(cause I had few lol) to the console of course being very careful to not short anything and then I switched console back on. I have been surprised because it started from the point where it stoped so about 60 procent and finalize the update process. I fixed few consoles in the past and had few disk boards so by my mistake I put wrong one inside lol. Hope this will help to anyone. Your video is regarding wee bit different error code but it looks like there is connection and might help others too. Take care
At the end, when you couldn't use the controller to turn off the console at the beginning of the initial setup, wouldn't just pressing the power button once turn it off nicely as well? (As opposed to holding the power, forcing a shut down). Great job on fixing another piece of hardware!
I bought my second 360 from ebay, it was giving an error and was 30$ because the seller just gave up. A quick google search later provided a failed update error code was the problem, after buying it and applying the update, voila! All it takes is a little time and effort sometimes. And yeah, even the 360 won't be happy if you swap drives all willy nilly. It's got a key in the drive that has to match up to the system's record. It's important to search error codes, as it's there for helping you find out what went wrong!
I would do this some more. Not all People but some people. For the challenge just make sure to let the People that wanna send something that you want to fix. Just the risk of .... I would take the more difficult challenges. Nice video and keep it coming! Doing this to, and i'm also a amateur. Like the challenges in fixing
I have the same error code and I opened up my Xbox to see the power cord to the disk drive missing I ordered one then installed it and I still get the error code. Do I need to order a new disk drive or hard drive
That's the same problem i have, my Xbox has never been opened and before buying a New drive, i want to know what did he do, yes yes, in the video it's everything, but to be honest i dunno anything about electronics and that stuff so, in other words, i think that he only format the Hard drive with help of a PC, yes he switched the Drive but he put the original, so... I dunno
The anti static mat is a really good purchase, I've got it too. Just be careful with parts of it as theres a few magnets inside it for holding screws or other things.
I have used it for around 2 months (I think). I would buy it again. You have to give it a good clean as it stinks when new. I left it outside to off-gas for 4 or 5 days and now it is perfect :-) BUT I do not have anything else to compare it to :-)
Been dealing with this problem for the past year. If anyone sees this, I finally figured out a fix for myself. May not work for everyone. Take your console apart, unplug the hdd and disk drive. (Clean her real good if it needs it.) plug everything back in and bam. No more update loop. Granted I have a feeling I will need to do this every time it throws the code.
I'm hoping one day you get a PS4 with a faulty PS4 camera port on the back - my OG PS4 has that so I had to get a pro to use my PSVR because I can't find any info on how to fix the port on a normal PS4
Get a hot air station or soldering iron and then get rid of the solder on the old port get a new camera port then put it in solder it in and that should work idk anything about ps4 hardware but im guessing that would fix it
For future consideration: Microsoft puts a security code on the motherboard to pair the disk drive with the motherboard. So if they don’t match, all it will do is read DVDs and not play any games and if you try to update the console you will get Error E100 (00000703 80910018) since during the update the console checks for any disk drive problems. So if you plan on changing the optical drive you must match it with its married motherboard.
Hello, I was wondering where you get your lots as I want to try fixing some consoles as I have the same building passion as you, however, I don't seem to be able to find these on eBay. I may be searching wrong. Thanks!
Hi, I search these words on eBay....faulty.....broken....spares or repair....not working...I look for ending soonest on All Auctions or newly listed on Buy it Now :-)
@@Mymatevince Thanks! Just one last question I was wondering what type of screwdrivers I should get and if you have any recommendations that are cheap as I have already picked out a multimeter.
i have a similar problem with my current xbox.. im getting a mixture of error codes. could it be that my files are corrupted; and that i just need to wipe and replace the old files with the new?? (i never had disk player problems) can i have some help? :(
It's understandable that you do not want to disappoint someone when they send you stuff to fix. But is it really disappointing? From my perspective, i'd rather pay shipping to & from and have an entertaining video to watch than pay someone else to fix it, who doesn't film their fix process. This way, we are actively supporting your channel by having the costs of buying the thing and shipping it covered. It's a "win-win" situation: if you fix it, well it's obviously a good thing; if you don't, we have the video to watch (which is a good thing in itself).
Hi vince, love watching your videos, I have learned loads from you, can you tell me if its possible to have two external hard drives for storage on the xbox one s?, I know there is a few videos on TH-cam about this, but you never know who you can trust, many thanks,
hello good sir my xbox one s does random black screen at 1st i assumed its shutting off but it seems in sleep because even cd tray button turns it back on. any idea what could be the issue its not instant on did every alternate thing power option.
great video keep up the good work one thing i'm curious about is that the Xbox one S is close to £400 new or more in some places but there still using a standard mechanical 5400rpm or 7200rpm 2.5" hard drive surely for that price they could fit a 500GB ssd instead as that would stop this issue from happening in the future also it would improve speed,reliability and load times.
I know this is a super old video but I had this exact issue a few weeks back while learning how to repair Xbox One X's. I swapped disc drives without swapping the internal board of the drives and every time I ran the offline updater it failed as E100. Once I swapped the daughterboards of the disc drives everything worked fine. E100 usually applies to hardware issues in my experience.
Hi Vince can you tell me were l can get a motherboard for the Samsung galaxy a3 2017 because can not see one on ebay maybe lam not looking in the right place
Xbox One Error E100 Code indicates a hardware update malfunction. According to Microsoft's troubleshooting website, this error is caused by a failed hardware update. The site recommends contacting Microsoft support, and indicates your console will require repair.
Liking the vid, but I have to ask about your methods. Did you swap the BD drive before wiping the HDD and it didn't work? It just occurs to me that if the swapped drive was the only issue stopping it updating then the data could have been saved. Seeing as that was the thing that changed prior to failure, it would have to be the logical first thing to check IMO. Having said that, not knocking you & all interesting vids plus the guy got his console working again. Now if there is an issue with the drive at least you can tell him he needs to swap the board over if replacing it... (or just repair whatever the issue was with the original drive.)
I just read the description after posting lol, it was already formatted so there was no data to be saved. Still might have saved you some time checking the original BD drive, wouldn't have been as interesting a video though. FWIW when it kept failing at the write stage consistently on 58% I was thinking damaged HDD as well & thinking a partition might get around the dead area.
So is it possible this problem was solved purely by reformatting and flashing the HDD with the Xbox stuff and actually had nothing to do with the optical drive?
I dunno how you do it mate but i watch all your videos when you fix things. I cannot believe you made me sit and watch you fix a fridge for an hour! love the videos !

According to a post on sevensins this happens when an update is applied without the (correct) Blu-ray drive connected.
Thanks for the info :-)
Vince do you have a game collection, if so it would be cool to see it. Good video as well!
Good job - I bet Jamie was pleased!
For future consideration:
Microsoft puts a security code on the motherboard to pair the disk drive with the motherboard. So if they don’t match, all it will do is read DVDs and not play any games and if you try to update the console you will get Error E100 (00000703 80910018) since during the update the console checks for any disk drive problems. So if you plan on changing the optical drive you must match it with its married motherboard.
They are matched but I still get the error code

Hello, I was wondering where you get your lots as I want to try fixing some consoles as I have the same building passion as you, however, I don't seem to be able to find these on eBay. I may be searching wrong. Thanks!
Hi, I search these words on eBay....faulty.....broken....spares or repair....not working...I look for ending soonest on All Auctions or newly listed on Buy it Now :-)
@@Mymatevince Thanks! Just one last question I was wondering what type of screwdrivers I should get and if you have any recommendations that are cheap as I have already picked out a multimeter.
Good job Vince!
Thank you :-)
I could watch this because your honest about everything
i have a similar problem with my current xbox.. im getting a mixture of error codes. could it be that my files are corrupted; and that i just need to wipe and replace the old files with the new?? (i never had disk player problems) can i have some help? :(
Vince, you make me smile =3
Great Work Vince
It's understandable that you do not want to disappoint someone when they send you stuff to fix. But is it really disappointing? From my perspective, i'd rather pay shipping to & from and have an entertaining video to watch than pay someone else to fix it, who doesn't film their fix process. This way, we are actively supporting your channel by having the costs of buying the thing and shipping it covered. It's a "win-win" situation: if you fix it, well it's obviously a good thing; if you don't, we have the video to watch (which is a good thing in itself).
Hi vince, love watching your videos, I have learned loads from you, can you tell me if its possible to have two external hard drives for storage on the xbox one s?, I know there is a few videos on TH-cam about this, but you never know who you can trust, many thanks,
hello good sir
my xbox one s does random black screen at 1st i assumed its shutting off but it seems in sleep because even cd tray button turns it back on.
any idea what could be the issue its not instant on did every alternate thing power option.
Wipe drive and reformat...Great Vince
Vince, there is a typo in the description
Thank you, you spotted that one quick. Thanks for letting me know :-)
@@Mymatevince you're welcome!
My Mate VINCE Shouldn't "Andrew Paul video" be "Andrew Paul's video"?
Yep, just changed that as well :-) Thank you.
@@Mymatevince you should make a discord server. It's free, all of your fans can talk together. And they can talk to you.
Love these videos but I have to ask mate. Why are you making most of these on the floor? My back and knees aches just thinking about it.
Maybe because so there's more room?
Awesome video as always
Thank you :-)
great video keep up the good work one thing i'm curious about is that the Xbox one S is close to £400 new or more in some places but there still using a standard mechanical 5400rpm or 7200rpm 2.5" hard drive surely for that price they could fit a 500GB ssd instead as that would stop this issue from happening in the future also it would improve speed,reliability and load times.
good video......just wondering why he put a new disc drive in when clearly nothing wrong with original one......?
I know this is a super old video but I had this exact issue a few weeks back while learning how to repair Xbox One X's. I swapped disc drives without swapping the internal board of the drives and every time I ran the offline updater it failed as E100. Once I swapped the daughterboards of the disc drives everything worked fine. E100 usually applies to hardware issues in my experience.
So let me see if I understand... I have to buy a new disc reader just to swap and then swap back to the old one again?
I love your videos. The only thing I wonder about is: why are you doing it on the floor? :)
Its in good condition
"Hmm i dont know that one"
is it really?? DUN DUN DUN..
That blue mat you use what product is that? I would love to buy one.
What is the tool you used called you plugged the hard drive into
Nice one mate hope the lad ya done it for is grateful for what ya done I would be
So have the fixable systems been good so far to this point ? Was thinking of doing the same as it is Kinda fun to fix .
I got the same issue in Xbox one x. I don’t understand what you did by adding it to the pc. Did U format it ? Did u put the files from the osu ?
Good fix Vince.
Hi Vince can you tell me were l can get a motherboard for the Samsung galaxy a3 2017 because can not see one on ebay maybe lam not looking in the right place
never clicked a vid so fast
logical memes same
Anyway to fix a Xbox one fan with wires ripped out of it and the white thing that connects it to the mother board ripped out ?
What is the model of your laptop? it looks good for a netbook
Hi, that is a GPD Pocket.
Xbox One Error E100 Code indicates a hardware update malfunction. According to Microsoft's troubleshooting website, this error is caused by a failed hardware update. The site recommends contacting Microsoft support, and indicates your console will require repair.
Problem using usb is you loose access to the S.M.A.R.T. data on the drive. Better to for Esata if you computer supports it.
You're videos seem very interesting!! 🔥
Liking the vid, but I have to ask about your methods. Did you swap the BD drive before wiping the HDD and it didn't work? It just occurs to me that if the swapped drive was the only issue stopping it updating then the data could have been saved. Seeing as that was the thing that changed prior to failure, it would have to be the logical first thing to check IMO. Having said that, not knocking you & all interesting vids plus the guy got his console working again. Now if there is an issue with the drive at least you can tell him he needs to swap the board over if replacing it... (or just repair whatever the issue was with the original drive.)
I just read the description after posting lol, it was already formatted so there was no data to be saved. Still might have saved you some time checking the original BD drive, wouldn't have been as interesting a video though. FWIW when it kept failing at the write stage consistently on 58% I was thinking damaged HDD as well & thinking a partition might get around the dead area.
So is it possible this problem was solved purely by reformatting and flashing the HDD with the Xbox stuff and actually had nothing to do with the optical drive?
You are awesome! Love your videos! Thanks for sharing!
