The Xbox 360 uses Post Codes to report the current step of the boot process. They can be read using 8 post points on the bottom of the motherboard which form a hex byte.

Post Codes List

The "Possible Cause" indicates possible reasons for post code if the unit is displaying an error code on the front panel or hanging on boot.

Note: On DD1 CPUs, which use Titan for FSB training, the first code is 0x15.
