cuz when i tried to update the dash it said update was finished and then i restarted my xbox and it just hung at the logo screen. Iwas running unreal off a cd.... I deleted my c and e drive and then restored them..... then i put in whacked and updated the dash from a cd and it worked like a charm...probably when the final version of unreal is released it the play live feature will probably update the dash with the right files instead of the wronge files.

boil the disc!

                                    Correct: 20-30 seconds!

(heh, a pinch of salt makes it taste better too!)

                                    Are you running the MS dashboard as your default?

Is this what the Xbox comes up in?

What chip do you have installed?
Did you upgrade your HD?
Did you try updating your dash first with Unreal/Time Splitters?

I have sporty-x by premodded.com (im guessing homebrew but i have NO way of knowing since they dont answer ims or emails...)

no my hard drive is original

no i have NOT yet tried to use unreal or timesplitters, but i have a brief recollection in my memory of hitting play live on the unreal menu, but i dont remember what happened... if it said it was updating the dash i would have remembered...

any ideas?

                                    That MAY have been enough to do it.

well, I dont think it did anything then becauseevox was my default dash, and everything worked fine afterwards, so it couldnt have tried an update...

im getting whacked on friday, i really hope that does the trick...

when i hit go live on nba2k3 it just goes to a blank screen and sits there forever... hopefully nba2k3 DOESNT have an updater...

Whatever was named xboxdash.xbe was changed. Check your MS dashboard.
