    You have to lock your HDD and turn off modchip if you have one. make sure the HDD is locked.

    DONT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!! MS has ways of detecting whether you have a stock harddrive or not, if you don't have a stock drive, you're outta xbox live. They will usually detect it half way through a game so if you do start, get off before they ban u!!

    IT is possible, you just have to have the original copy of the game, turn off you modchip BEFORE turning on the xbox. make sure that the M$ dashboard comes up and play.

    Y did i get banned using my ms dash on the original halo?? I wasn't cheating coz that ruins a game and I wasn't using offensive language coz i dont got a headset.

    You can't play the original halo on xbox live, only halo 2. i think if you have a older modchip then you have to take out the modchip the first time you use live. btw it's you fault you got banned because you should have done a little research before attempting to sign in.

    Just a little FYI, If you already have a XBL account and then mod youx xbox and upgrade your HD and try to go back onto XBL you WILL get banned. XBL. Don't ask me how but myself and 3 of my friends had this happen. I was told MS gets your HD serial# or something and when you change your HD and log on to XBL it knows your HD is different, and since the only way to change your HD is with a mod, blamo, banned. Let me know if this isn't the case because my Xenium was off and my HD was locked.
