Hey, has anyone ever have to deal with a failed dashboard update on Xbox 360?
A colleague has given me his old system which apparently froze up on a black screen during a system update and was unplugged after ~30 minutes. On startup I'm presented with a new-style NXE error message:

Code:
Can't read the update from the disc. Please reinsert the disc to continue the update

Status Code: 1686-3151-B200-0700-C000-0013
Interpreting the code it looks like the system failed during an update from dash 5766 (0x1686) to 12625 (0x3151)? I've given it a 12625 $SystemUpdate via USB drive but it just perpetually sits there with a little progress spinner on-screen.

Suggestions would be appreciated. It's a 2006 Xenon so no huge loss if it's a writeoff, though
 
Ugh, sorry, ignore this thread. I tried another two USB drives and it finally picked up and installed the dash update!
