sounds like you have it burned to a cd
please read pinned topics... xbmc will not run from a not writeable media source
ie' CDRW or CDR or DVD-R or DVD+R. as the xbox can't write to these on the fly if your xbox can read them thats great but xbmc needs to be installed to a drive to be run. ;) read thru the pinned topics they help out alot!  <

Its late i'm at work my brains dead, but you might wanna just put in a stock XML file and check with that first, if you modified your xml, which i think youdid, it looks like thats whats killing you.  <
