Title: Other Causes Of Live Banning
Post by: Gumba on November 12, 2004, 04:48:00 AM

QUOTE

1. French Halo2 MP profile saves on E: Should I just make do by deleting the whole Halo2 save from within the M$ dash? Or should I hunt down and delete both 'coded' Halo2 folders from within TDATA & UDATA?

no proof whatsoever for this

QUOTE

2. Non-Stock files present on C: & E: Are these better off being moved to the F: partition as a precaution?

It appears some non-stock stuff can get you banned, such as font-exploits and softmods, but other than those you should be fine.

QUOTE

3. Region Specific games saves on E: If I connect to the European XboxLive service with region specific game saves on my HDD, such as PhantomDust (JAP only), is this gonna cause a problem?

no proof whatsoever for this

QUOTE

4. HDD Locked with EvoX: Is EvoX's HDD locking ability sufficient enough to get onto (& stay on) XboxLive?

no proof whatsoever for this

QUOTE

5. Modded BIOS running Retail Halo2 Offline: NOT with intentions of going onto XboxLive (obviously), but is there a possibility that if you run a retail-disc Halo2, offline, using a modded BIOS, that it could create implications & problems for running it later, online & unmodded?

Possible, but no proof has been put forwarded as far as I know

I'm new to this forum, but I was just thinking, people are worried about getting banned, then they would need to get a un banned EEPROM to go on live again so why not just to play it safe and find a EEPROM That is already banned from live and use that for offline or for Xlink, Because I have a little brother that's bound to get me banned off of live. So have the Banned on the Mod setup and have original for stock or mod "off". This would make people feel safer knowing that they won't screw up their un banned EEPROM.

Well, you can do it failry easily by embedding the eeprom in the bios. Older X2 bioses could do this.

well you could certainly use atapwd to set a master password to match your banned "offline" eeprom
