You have to change your EEPROM to an unbanned code.

All you did was changed the serial number......If you have been around since this began and read the threads you sbhould have known that that does nothing

You have to get a completly new VALID eeprom....the info they are banning is not just your serial....it is a unique hdd key which is formed from some algorithm of serial, MAC and/or other stuff....this has to be completely valid to get on to live.....

if so, im gonna kick the idiots ass that told me i didnt have to on this very forum yesterday.

That was me that told you you didn't have to change it....and you don't...your xbox still works doesn't it....

Changing either does not get you back onto live... if this were the case everybody could easily get back onto live....

I read your post, you did not say you changed it to a valid unbanned code anywhere.

Also, make sure you reboot after you change the EEPROM (with the mod off, of course).

RedBusta, fuck you moron. you just wasted me 2 serials/eeproms i could have used, if you had just answered my question right yesterday.

Calling him a moron? Changing your serial number using Configmagic won't get you unbanned. Its a combination of things that will get you unbanned. The HDD key is the main part. Anyways, how did you know the serial number you inputted was valid? Did you just make it up?
