xbox making zapping sounds

this is my first og xbox, i’ve removed the clock cap and replaced the thermal paste. currently playing the simpsons hit and run and it keeps making an odd sound. it’s hard to capture audio with it but it sounds as loud as i assume it typically does but keeps doing this very electronic noise. kind of like a zapping sound. is that normal or am i just overthinking it? (i would add a video of it making the sound but it’s usually during gameplay)

looking to soft mod my console, will buying this work?

i have a PAL console and want to change the region. will this also allow me to bypass the region lock on discs? also, which option would be the best to buy?

i’m aware i could do this all myself but i’m needing to buy the things i need anyway and feel this would be more convenient all round

help getting this power connector off?

either 1.0 or 1.1. i’ve been trying for 2 hours and it won’t move. i don’t have a spudger and it’s insanely awkward. are there tips or youtube videos specifically for this version? every connection has been a pain to get out but this is by far the worst and i’m losing my mind

about to remove my clock cap, has it leaked already?

to me it looks like it has but i also have no idea what i’m doing. if it has, is there something i need to do from here?

just got my first ever original xbox, anything i should know?

what’s the best (affordable) option when it comes to hdmi? i only have a smart tv currently

this is a 2002 model, i’ve heard there’s issues with ones before 2004 but know nothing about what to do with that, can someone explain this all to me like i’m a child? lol

aside from this being way out of my league, i now officially own every gen of xbox (og, 360, one & series)

disc has a weird patch on the side and won’t download past 14% hours

bought this recently, is that area causing this and is there any way to get it to work?
