My Xbox360 is invincible anyway!

Haven't tried it yet on my Pal machine. [GLOAT Mode on] Was too busy playing NCAA 2007 on my spanking new NTSC 360 to try [GLOAT Mode off]. Need to sort out connecting that to live as well.

Nope! It's still going. It murdered FM2006 (revenge for me punching it?) but it's still going strong as a console.

My update was problem free, must say though LOVE the improvements! Is it just me or does everyones downloads from marketplace seem soooo much faster???

Tried forcing it via the system blade and Live connection test?

How are you connecting the 360 to the net? If its going through a router or PC, try connecting it directly to the modem if possible.

NokkonWud · 1 Nov 2006 at 12:31

Nope... not yet

Yup tried the live connection test, it won't connect to live but says it's all fine otherwise.

Not tried connecting directly so I'll try that, but did try rebooting the router etc.

Haly · 1 Nov 2006 at 12:45

Ahh connecting directly worked, thanks

Didn't think of that as the last time I updated, it wasn't bothered going via router.

Good stuff

It does look as though the 360/Live! make use of UPnP when it's on a NAT behind a router. It works fine here, but some routers have bad UPnP implementations, which could be why it wouldn't connect to live during the test, or perform the update. Does actually using Live work fine through the router?

Haly · 1 Nov 2006 at 20:39

Yeah works fine now

Worked fine before the update too, just didn't like updating.

LadFromWales · 1 Nov 2006 at 21:09

heh weird. Guess your 360 was happy with its current 'image' and didn't want to change!

Liking the massive new power meters, were tiny before, especially when peering at them through Picture in Picture.

Oh thats a point guys, off topic I know, but can the 2405FPW PiP VGA and DVI-D?

Bartleby · 1 Nov 2006 at 23:13

sigh... 360 since december no problems, just done update goes to reboot
the logo comes half up and locks up turn it on now and flashing red lights
yaaaay so happy right now

Any tricks to try?
took off the hdd same thing
...edit just unplugged it and back in, turns on but logo semi comes up and locks up wont go any further
guess give MS a call tomo .

I can't say for sure it killed my 360, but 2 minutes after the restart from the update, boom! 3 Red Lights.
