wait you got the bigg hd to run this time? or whats with the error code? yeah theirs a cache E/cache and also x y z. dont want to worry you but sounds like your drive laser is dieing on you . to test borrow another console and switch dvd drives and see if the game freezes with the other drive. also is this game hevily scratch? and finaly does this happen with this game only or with all of your games? _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

you unlocked your retail hd ?!!!!!!!!!! ??????????? oh no this is not good... do you have your eeprom.bin saved? the working one . you didnt do the steps ? [/b]xboxhd enter 1) build new hd from scratch . reboot insted of 1 3) lockhd -a
on your C you did RETAIL MS DASH from the download ... extracted and before transfering it to C on xhdm you deleted the info inside?
i know i know im saying things more then 1 x but i dont understand why wouldnt it work... unless its a wrong eeprom. so is the hd even lockable? you should be getting info after you type in lockhd -a .... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition

I have my eeprom.txt printed out twice and atleast 3 copies of eeprom.bin and a few eeprombackup.bin's anyways..
deleted what info... i just copied the ms dash download into the c folder.. Yes my HDD is lockable... it is on the lockable list and I have locked it before...
would the fact the the ConfigMagic I used savng it as EEPROM.bin as uposed to eeprom.bin do anything?
this cloning thing takes forever... _________________ Xbox V1.0.. so old it cant host Halo2 Games anymore..

wait if you used configmagic then you alterd the eeprom.bin you could reder it useless...
ok we need to start over from scratch ... put in your retail hd because none of these eeprom.bin are real.
do you care of your saves ? if you dont we can just formate the hd and start from scratch.... if not we can still do it just a bit longer... _________________ Xbox 360 Premium edition
