USB Hard Drives are useless, why people use them is beyond me. The USB Board inside them always die out. Could be a sign that your hard drive is becoming faulty, your hard drive will be fine if you removed it and put it inside a PC or directly inside a xbox, however do you get the same problem when you plug it into your PC. Does the PC give you any issues/errors. Try a different usb on the xbox, (only use the back ones for this) Does FSD work fine without the Hard Drive connected.

Need a bit more info Have you FSD installed on a USB, Internal Memory, Hard Drive How many games have you on it, have you 100s of games trying to download covers? What size is your hard drive and/or what your running FSD off?

Title Updates can be any name, I even rename mine "minecraft_tu01", etc.. does no harm. All the data stored within. Maybe your problem is your trying to play the game in english, and you've a different language TU?

Is it a Game on Demand format?

It shouldn't but sometimes it does. If its on the DMZ it should be ok, tho try opening the ports in the router anyway, see what you get. I just checked my router settings, my xbox is also on DMZ, and I've opened the ports. Here is a screenshot...

You don't see a HDD1 folder. HDD1 is your drive name, like the C: Drive is the first hard drive name on windows Intmu will be the name of your 4gig memory. You can put the TU in the cache folder on the hard drive or internal memory, what ever suites you, heck you can stick it on USB0 (thats a FAT32 formatted USB stick for the xbox 360)

Change the ports from default on the link settings to 1000 and 1001 Also, is the xbox connected directly to the router (wired or wireless), and, when you set the ports to 1000 and 1001, make sure you open TCP/UTP ports in the router settings for your xboxes ip You could also try making your xbox ip the DMZ on your router, that way your xbox will have no restrictions via router what so ever

Its no problem. Glad you got it sorted. Most don't tell us

Disconnect the xbox from the internet, make sure u dont get a live update by accident. Then put in the usb to update. It will say xbox live update, take it. (Providing your using the same systemupdate as your kernal). And make sure you have no disc in ( a game disc could have a newer update). Just make sure your internet is connected from that xbox.

Check your system dashboard, then get the update for it from: http://www.homebrew-connection.org/files/xbox/system_updates/ put the update on a usb pen and accept the update. Make sure you download the system update that matches your dashboard.

Thats like 10 months away, until then, have fun. When that time comes, JTAG that xbox and sell it. Put a bunch of backup games on it (providing who your selling it too has the originals of course) and you'll have the funds for the new xbox... consider it as an investment

You have a chip, you have little wires in your xbox.. You go on xbox live they'll see something that shouldn't be there. You want to play xbox live like i do, get a 2nd xbox.

If you want to kill your jtag, yes, update from xbox live Open dashlaunch and enable noupdater to disable that message.

if you've set your routers DMZ to the ip of the xbox everything should be ok. Can u try a different router, even a cheap temp one to compare it too and see if it works?

Why not have a FSD for you and 1 for the kids?

You'd need to make your own custom skin for that. What FSD are you using? Best thing you could do is have a folder on your HDD1 or what ever your using (USB0, etc..) Hdd1/Games/My Childs Games/ Then in the scan settings, for that entry, have that folder put the games it finds into "Homebrew", and rename "Homebrew" to "Kids Games" so you'll have " Xbox 360 Games | Arcade | Emulators | Kids Games " ALSO, You could just move the games from xbox 360/arcade to Homebrew by selecting "Y" and select "Move", but you'll need to do it for every entry.

Just downloaded. Thank you very much

Do you still have 2.2 in a separate folder on your HDD, maybe your launch.ini config file is still set to boot it, dashlaunch detected it and used it as default. dashlaunch installs to flash I think, and the launch.ini in the flash gets the priority over hdd1. To update dashlaunch, it will just ask when you load it. To reinstall F3, delete the folder via xexmenu and reupload the files to the hdd or install F3 from an iso.

Is there any skin programs for F Have you come across any programs for makign skins for F3, the only one I had is for 2.2 and it crashes when i try them on F3. Also, i dont need to worry about a secret dash, its her xbox, its only her games on it. you think i'm allowed on it lol, if i wanted to play Free60, i had to get my own.

No, I sometimes get it too, its very annoying. Try running the game through x360gamehack, to remove any bugs (anti piracy) that may be in the default.xex file and try converting to GoD again, other than that you're most likly have to play it without the game on demand format. HOWEVER.. I have fixed these issues, especially with my kinect games , such as Kinect Sports Season 1 and 2 that wouldn't work at all.. Get the orginal disc/backup copy, and install disc to Hard Drive, then use nxe2god to convert it to GoD. That will fix your issue ^^ That was from personal experience Assuming you have the orginal Fifa 13 of course, if the disc has come unreadable, rent it from a local shop or borrow from a friend. Remeber, let me know how it goes see if this fixed the issue for you too.

No, that is fine. Text is fine. Try changing the ports to 1000 and 1001 for the other and try again.

you know, if you give more information as to what you've tried and what you haven't tried, somebody may be able to troubleshoot you better. For example, is your ethernet plugged in or wireless setup, what ports are you using, is your username/password entered correctly, have you enabled/disabled pingpatch, is your xbox getting an IP address from the router, you need to go tell us what you've done. There can be a 1000 reasons as to why link isnt working for you. Tell us what you've done. Help us help you

don't play the game as a Game on Demand.

You have told your multi.ini file where your 2nd disc is? for example, mine has this in it... ; Final Fantasy 13-1 [535107E4] disk1 = hdd1Content0000000000000000535107E4000070001D280FE094D6E1197B5C disk2 = hdd1Content0000000000000000535107E400007000AB3FFE225604A8E787AA disk3 = hdd1Content0000000000000000535107E400007000F274389AE30CB3383DB5 When the game as for disk 1/2/3 it swaps it automatically because it knows where to find it
