How do I do this - very new to xbox 360 and it seems that I cannot sign onto live without creating a profile - it wont create a profile as it says I need a memory unit or xbox 360 hard drive.

I have a few hdds and usb sticks around but it wont use these, tried the update via usb stick and that didnt work!!

someone help please - I brought a bare xbox 360 to use as a media extender, then had to buy a psu and av cable - got it working with a mce remote - I dont want to buy a hdd as well! Can someone talk me through a way of doing this?

thanks
 
Is there no way to do it via cd or usb stick - I have followed the instructions on the xbox website but it doesnt go into update - no idea why!
 
once I've updated will I need to keep the momory card?

edit - The xbox I brought was 2nd hand from MM and is the origional one
 
Dont want to but a memory card!

To clear up my confusion, Can I use it as a media extender once I have updated and then given the memory card back to a mate? Does it actually save it on the card just whilst updating or is the card permenantly needed?
 
Another thought - is there a way of hard wiring a hdd to the xbox internally - its the basic one without a hdd, I have a few hdds spare - can I hardwire one in or adapt a cable to be plugged into where the memory card is connected?
 
The whole point of buying the xbox was a cheap media extender - with the price of the console, then a psu, then an av cable, now add a memory card/hdd - the aim is to try and use what I have,

It is easy to go out and buy the bits, I could go and get a whole new one, but thats no fun is it?
