My Sons words, not mine

Xbox developed RROD, sent a way over 3 weeks ago. Received brand new console, today.

Tried to recover gamer tag from Xbox.com and message came up saying "cannot save to selected storage device" "please make sure hardrive is inserted correctly and there is enough free space"

The hardrive is from the Xbox which was sent off 3 weeks ago, and is inserted correctly with plenty of free space.

Any ideas gratefully received, TIA

worth a look

Thanks for that, but when he tries to press "Y" as instructed, nothing is happening.

Can you access the drive at all, get at any of the demos, music, videos already stored on there ?

Lee247

No, he can't get past the "y". It won't register at all. We have spoke to microsoft twice tonight and confirmed all the account details, but still, na na
Consequently, he can't speak to his mates and continue his games where they left off. It's a joke
Their solution, wait for it,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,








try to download it on a friends machine, eh

bob269

Sorry maybe i was a little unclear, you can boot up the console without downloading a gamertag, so can you access the contents of the drive, this will prove if the drives working ok.

If so, go to the memory settings in the system blade and do the following.

"highlight the hard drive. Now press: Y, X, X, LB, RB, X, X. The following message should appear: "Do you want to perform maintenance on your Xbox 360 storage devices?", select Yes"

Then try downloading your profile, it may work, it maynot, eitherway nothing is lost so it wont hurt trying

Lee247

Thanks bob, will show him this and see how he gets on. Me talking about Xbox is a waste of time

Lee247

Nope, came up with the same message as in the first post
