Everything that I see through Google indicates that the problem is it
can't find the Dashboard. Ususally (and I'm not pointing fingers, I'm
just saying USUALLY) it's a result of a mod chip install gone bad.

Microsoft might be able to help you, try 1-800-4MY-XBOX and see what
they say.


"stock answer for error code 16:

Something has happened to the software on your xbox and it can no
longer perform properly.
You have a couple options available to resolve the issue

-Replace the motherboard and hard drive as a pair
-Replace the hard drive
-Repair the data on the hard drive
-Purchase a modchip"

Dashboard files cannot be read
either they are gone or the hard drive's best days are over
