Gents,
My X-Box has been working fine until today. I have an older Xenium Osxodus chip with Avalaunch dash. I cannot play ANY games. Games go to the boot screen from the dash and, after a few seconds, go back to the dash. Retail, backed up.... nothing works. I deleted all the contents of E/Cache and tried to delete the files in the X, Y, and Z folders but there are some that will not delete. The error is 32. In the file manager, the F drive says it has an error. Can anyone help me?

Thanks,
Ryan

i dont know about avalaunch errors but it might be corruption.

1.)how large is the drive?
2.)only F drive -or- both F and G?
3.) how long have you been using the drive?

Not really sure what the F drive is. I don't know how big it is. When I first open the file manager, it says Err: 1005 to the far right of F and when I select F, it switches to Err: 3. I am not sure what is going wrong. I watch a lot of movies on my box but have never had any problems with games.

Oops, forgot the rest of your post. I don't have a G drive. I have a C, D, E, F, X, Y, and Z. I have been using my modded box for about 3 and a half years. Again, I am not really sure what the F drive does so I don't know if I have been using it or not. This is the first time I have seen this error.

F drive is where you store all your games and movies. as well as G if you have one. find out how big your HDD is. if it is above 250GB and you only have F drive it is probably corruption. you will have to completely re-format you HDD and start over.

My HDD is the original one that came with the xbox. Not sure how big those are (like 8 gig or something). I really don't care to lose anything on the HDD, could I just format it and see what that does? How do you format the HDD and put everything back on it? Something else I forgot to mention, DVD movies play fine. I can wathc them all day long but I just can't play any games.

you can try to reformat, but im not sure it will fix it. have you made a backup of your MS dash files?

No I haven't. I do I format the F drive? That may very well fix the problem since I have never seen the error on the F drive before.

use this GUIDE to do a clean format. try to back up all of the C drive. if you cant you will have to extract the dash files from slayers or something of sort. you just cant reformat F drive itself.
