The Old XBOX Megathread

[Kaney]

So I tried booting up Gears and all of a sudden I have no picture. I can hear the Xbox booting up, and my PS3 works perfectly, so it's not the tv.

Please tell me I can buy replacement cables without buying a lot of shit I don't need.

[Summers]

NXE blows.

[Ruki]

The new Xbox site pisses me off...I can't find where to check the status of my console. I see "Request a repair", but I can't find anywhere to check it's current status. Help?

[CQI13]

from the main page, click on the support tab, then select "Check Repair Status".

[Ruki]

Does nothing. Does not let me put in my ID thingy.

[James Casey]

Well, got my 360 picked up today - so in a week or two I can get to experience all this.

Apparently UPS are collecting about 5 or 6 a day for repairs just in my area...

[Ruki]

I know 5 people who got the red rings in the past month.

[CQI13]

Ruki, does this work?

Repair Status

[Ruki]

That seems to work, but I can't put in my postal code. It says "Postal code/zip"...I assume it is because it is set to US by default, but every time I change it, it changes back.

[SRN]

Har-har, my Repair Status works just perfectly! I am sure to win this bet.. somehow.

[Ruki]

I should stab Microsoft in the face.

[Maxx]

NXE is an interesting little upgrade but the fucking thing freezes like crazy

[Crybaby Bunting]

Does anyone know if you can transfer images onto the hard drive like it was rumoured?

If it works with images then game saves just got a lot easier to copy

[John Stones' Paint Trophy]

I love my avatar. I love the party feature as well and it's a life saver if you're playing Gears Wingman or something.

[JoeMimic]

This might sound stupid but could you always install games to your HD from the Dashboard?

New to NXE.

[Ruki]

Nope.

And I only have like....9 gigs left, not sure if I will upload anything.

[JoeMimic]

I just uploaded SVR09 and it was 6.6 gigs.
