Hey everyone
I think I am posting this in the correct forum but if not I apologize.
My friend recently gave me his banned xbox and I bought a Hard drive for it. I never realized that the ban got rid of the ability to instal games on the hard drive. Now I hear that the April update from microsoft can restore the ability to install games.
This link gave directions but I am a bit unsure.

Does anyone know how this works? If I follow the directions on the bottom of the article will my HD install games?
The article says that even though the HD is restored profile data is still corrupted. I am not even sure what this means. If your profile data is corrupted does that mean you can't save a game?
I bought the HD for the xbox after it was banned and I was able to create a profile and save game data.
If I use this update will my profile be corrupted and will I lose the ability to save? Has anyone had success with the method described in this article?
I just bought a used copy of Left 4 Dead and I only want to install it and be able to save data. I have no interest in piracy but I would really like to be able to use the game and HD that I have purchased (I hope the install will cut down the amount of noise this system produces).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
