Banned !!!!! xbox live

[huxley]

Just got the banned screen, I have evox 3935 120 gig drive and have made no changes to the console in the last two days. Was gonna meet up online with a mate who has the same set up as me and he got the same result.

Know I`ve got a good reason to crack out the crystal xbox Cheers M$

That totally sucks. On a new xbox can you just carry on with your live account? Or do you need a new one of those too?

[huxley]

just copy the live data to a memory card and put it on the new box, works fine I`m back on now. If you don`t have a memory card you have to go through the typing with the pad crap again i guess.

thing is I didn`t make any changes to the console in the last 3 days so they must of scanned my hd etc. is that legal ?

[VR46]

they can probably scan the HD (bet M$ put something about this in the small print on the Live subscription) so glad I have a bog standard box now but it is a sod for all those with chipped boxes.

You sure you didnt do anything man?

I havent heard of many people at all getting the bannage from having a bigger hard drive, I heard it was just scanning for other more legal stuff..

i've been playing on a chiped box, 120gb on live for the last week and im still ok, the c: on mine aint even clean - i am running evox from F: but i know there is still stuff on the c: that shouldn't be there.

Are you absolutely sure you never went onine with the chip on?
Or was playing a live aware game at some point from the HD whilst connected ?

I'm sorry to hear you've been banned but there's **** loads a people that haven't seen any change since the HD scanning, and like Unlighty said very few that seem to have been banned.

The hard drive scanning code's been there for YONKS. Apparently all it does is create a key for online play.

Ihave a 120 gig HD in mine, and run EvoX from the c:/ drive. I have had no problems so far. I just make sure my router is turned off whenever the chip is on. I may get banned one day, but until then I'm happy with my set up.

Remember, if you use a Live enabled game with the chip on and your BB connected (even if you don't log in) there is a risk that info could be transmitted to MS.

Same here; absolutely no problems at the moment.
