I bought my xbox about a year ago. My friend modified it, I was able to play games for awhile now when I try to load a game it tries to connect to xbox live and I am unable to get it out of this screen. I do not want to log on to xbox live just want to play my games. Is there anyway to reset this? Thanks
does it have a chip or is it softmodded?? did you go onlive with the mod on?? is it doing this to every game?
Sorry, I do not know about a chip or softmodded. All I know is that he had a disk installed it and that was it. I never been onlive and it does it with every game.
It still tries to connect to LIVE even when you load games from hdd, doesn't it? What happen if you boot xbox without game in DVD drive? Does xbox load Avalaunch dash? Hopefully, you know the different between Avalaunch and MS dash. Can you load MS dash from Avalaunch? if so, what do you see? does it try to connect to LIVE?
It tries to connect with or without a game in dvd drive. Never goes to dashboard. Can not do a cotton pickin thing (being nice)
The possible problems you may have right now are: - Softmod file is bad Or Avalaunch dash corrupted. - MS dash is bad too. Right now, every time you boot xbox, you only see MS dash. But it tries to connect LIVE. Therefore you can't do anything. Xbox will not read any games and any disks.
Well there are couple of ways to fix your xbox right now: - Go back to the guy who moded your xbox - Or do hotswap. This requires knownledge of PC. read here http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/332766
The guy is no where to be found. I have called him and he will not return my calls. But I will look at that link and see what it say. No Im not a pc person but....we will see what happens. If all else fails I might buy another one.
