The media flags are disabled in the games, right?

No Idea what could be wrong, but six hours sounds like a pretty long time to be playing a xbox to me, espesially with
A big HD and a mod chip in it.

Try removing your network cable, there are known lockups with the network cable plugged in w/ evox.

Perhaps try 4977.  Maybe your chip has a bad flash.  Or maybe there is some other sort of loose connection that needs to be "warmed up" before working properly.

I'm pretty sure I dont have a bad flash since if I load a backup DVDr game that I left in the xbox overnight, it loads just fine and plays fine, no freezing like when I try to load a game/app from the HD.

I played around with it some more yesterday and left the xbox powered on in evox for a about 15minutes or so after I got home to see if it would do it again even if I waited. Sure enough, after I loaded the ms dash, it froze.  grr.gif All was fine again after I power cycled though...

I switched to MXM last night as my primary dash and have evox as a backup now to see if it is trully an evox problem. I'll report back when I get back home from work today...

I'm having the same evox problem.   Everything is stable with the network unplugged and things start to randomly freeze with the jack in.

Let me know how MXM works for you.  It may be a time for a switch.

Can any of the Dash authors comment on these Network/Dash associated lockups? (Ben Jeremy)
