Title: Live Not Found
Post by: dr.no on January 19, 2004, 08:37:00 AM
1.0 Xbox,
Modchip disabled,
dashboard was updated by splinter cell (i dunno which version that makes it),
HD locked,
everything in the network-settings is fine (using a router with static IP settings)

But I just can't connect to live. I get the following:
O Kabel hooked up
O IP-settings were made
O DNS is fine
X Xbox Live was not found

If I press Y on help, I get the following:

1.00.4920.01
X: 0000-000D
Y: 00AB-E800
Z: 0000-0000

So because Y2 is not starting with a "6", I assume I am not banned. But why can't I find live then? :blink:
Do I need to open any ports? Something else to think of? Or am I banned anyways?

Any help is appreciated.

Has noone ever heard of something like this? Which ports are used by live?

I had this problem when i was banned
I got the xbox live not found error when i troubleshooted
But then i would also get
"modified xbox error"
If youve seen or have this error
Its probably because you have

Xbox live auto sign in on
Your network cable plugged in
and ejected your chipped xbox game with chip on
after playin
this WILL ban you

If youve not seen that error, then i cant help you

I know that the xbox live service has been having some problems over the past few days
Maybe its just part of there server period

I did not get a specific "banned" message and so i am a little confused.
Ill try a direct connect without my router, maybe that will help. Thanks Wild182!

I am having this problem too. Tried a direct-connect without my router, no dice. My cables are fine, Evox can get an IP and FTP just fine. :/

Think maybe MS is now looking for things other than the presence of an active modchip?

I'm in the same boat, apparently. Everything looks fine, MechAssault updated the xbox live dash, using X2.3b pro with 4980 BIOS, chip disabled before attempting to go live.  I also get the "Xbox live not found" error, but not the "Your console may have been modified" error.

I wonder what gives?

My Y code was:  00C2 - 0060

Can anyone shed some insight? Hopefully?  huh.gif

I hope for your sake that i'm wrong about this...but i'm pretty sure that your Y code means you are banned.

Troubleshoot the connection and let us know what error you get at the end, as it simply doesn't just say "xbox live not found"

Well, on a hunch I swapped my 80 gig HD out and re-installed the original 10giger that came with my Xbox.  Lo and behold, Xbox Live is working again...

So I guess the questions now are:

1. Why isn't the box allowing me to play using the upgraded HD?  It's using the original BIOS (modchip turned off), and obviously the HDD is locked.

2. Will I get banned in a few days (hours, minutes, weeks, etc) since it failed to let me connect to Live when using the upgraded HD?

Mysterious.  I also seem to recall reading somewhere that an initial Y code of 00C2 meant "major hardware problem"...???

Thanks for the reply!  Other insights are welcome too. :-)

I had same problem but i FIXED it like this:
I ran my avalaunch and looked at my Hardware settings.
It said i had PAL-1 or PAL-I whatever and behind it said: WEIRD
So i thought let's use the Enigmah PAL-NTSC switcher, so i did and select PAL, rebooted again and checked hardware again. The WEIRD word was gone so i turned off modchip, rebooted and voila i was able to connect again to the XBOX live. Dont know what went wrong but its working again :P :D

I'm having this exact same problem.  If I set my IP address on the xbox to automatic I get past all the checks (cable connected, ip address, dns)  But then it says xbox live not found.  If I leave it set to manual to 192.168.1.5 I don't even get a ip address and fail on the check.  I haven't checked my codes yet as I will do that when I get home(at work), I will also try my old hd to see if it works.  I'm just hoping I can get it to work.

I had the same problem on a soft modded box.  Harrytaskers solution worked for me!  I had used avalaunch also, and had my box set to ntsc weird, used Enigma's video switch disk and set it back to ntsc m.

Remember that using an alternative dash like evox will change your xbox network settings. if the settings you use for evox dont match the settings xbox live needs to connect such as ip address or DNS then it will not connect to live until you resolve this.

DNS settings in evox are default to 0.0.0.0
you will need to change it to the DNS settings for your ISP.

I put my stock hard drive in and I'm still unable to connect to LIVE.  Same problem as WD120gb drive.  I set it to automatic and connected my xbox straight to my cable modem (worked before).

I read that my Y code 00C2 means a hardware problem, not sure what that could be.

I've got the same codes for Y: 00C2   I havent been able to resolve this prob yet...does anyone have any info as to what hardware could be causing this?
I've switched Eeprom and still same...

Franjo I have the same exact codes as you do. I have posted before and really haven't gotten a straight answer on this problem. My situation was that I upgraded to a maxtor 120gig hd with no chip tsop flashed and was able to play on live. Then I got a good deal on a 250gig and now I"m not able to connect. Tried using avalaunch method everything is okay. I have another eeprom but am holding off to see if somebody replies with a solution.

I too am having difficulty connecting to Live! tonight.  It all started about an hour ago.

I haven't connected to Live! in quite some time.. but I was getting prepared to FTP into my XBOX when I bumped the A button while EvoX menu had MS Dashboard selected.   2 seconds later I get the Modified Hardware error....

So, I disconnect my 120GB HDD and put in my ORIGINAL HD.. turned off the mod chip, tried reconnecting and now I am only getting a Network Error.  It's suggesting that I check/change settings in my router or configuration.

I figured what the hell... if I am banned, I am banned...  might as well call MS and try to find out for certain.  The rep I talked to was not very helpful, and didn't seem to be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but he told me there appeared to be something wrong with the network tonight, try again tomorrow.  He didn't ask me for anything but my name, so I am pretty certain he never looked up my account.

So many people seem to be having problems connecting tonight (Feb 11 or 12, 2004)  maybe the network really is down.

Maybe it is because I cant connect and all it says it techniacl errors or something is anybody else getting that?

Post by: Stickan on February 12, 2004, 08:54:00 AM
I also cannot connect to live. I get the following codes:

1.00.5659.03
W:0000-000B
X:0000-F001
X:00C2-01E4
Z:AFFF-0018

Modchip was turned off, I have an Executor 2 chip with switch. I have installed Evox with Slayer's 2.5.

Any ideas anyone? I'm I banned or what went wrong?

Post by: DexX on February 12, 2004, 12:31:00 PM
Hey what does it say for you guys does it say something about a technical error or about network settings or what? Cause i get I cant connect to live because of technical stuff or something even though i changed my eeprom
Title: Live Not Found
Post by: Stickan on February 12, 2004, 12:34:00 PM
Well, mine only says that it cannot connect to xbox live due to technical issues..
Title: Live Not Found
Post by: DexX on February 12, 2004, 02:48:00 PM
Yeah thats like what mine says but I'm pretty sure i erflashed my eeprom ok. So how can we fix this?
Title: Live Not Found
Post by: Stickan on February 12, 2004, 07:55:00 PM
I have no idea how to fix it. But as I doubt I am banned, I called MS support and they will come back to me..

When I get home I'm going to call the 1-800-4my xbox number and see if they can help me any, i'll also contact my ISP to see if there is anything specfic I need to do to get live running.  I'm sure that's not the case as I was always connected before, but as with any problem........process of elimination.  Will keep the thread updated as I get more info.

Use 007 hack to get into your friends xbox to grab eeprom then follow tutorial to restore eeprom.

No you can't, best if you get the actual file...just FTP to the xbox and grab it

emanboss, thanks for your reply.

I just finished reading the tutorial for configmagic final.  Do I need a another eeprom?  I don't have a 6 in my Y code, I have the 00C2.  So I'm not banned.  if I reflash it with the same eeprom, will that work? Has anybody ever tried this? While im waiting for replys...anyone selling any eeproms?

Thank you for all your replys

Post by: emanboss on February 18, 2004, 05:25:00 PM
I tried updating with config magic and had no luck. So I used the 007 hack to get another eeprom from my friends xbox to replace mine and it worked. Followed shanafan tutorial, easy to do and effective. Just trying now to get my stats back up their since I was off for about 2 months. I had the 00C2 code also and to my knowledge I didn't go on live but maybe I did and didn't know. Oh well all is well now.
