There's something strange going on here.
So the freakin rumors are true after all....

Well the rumors are true. Accessing Live with your modchip on will get you banned.

He said he plays Mechassault and Capcom vs SNK. I don't think there are hacked files out for those games.

Ok I guess I'm the first one to go down by accessing Xbox live with my chip turned off....

did you sell your old hard disc? Maybe someone ripped the eeprom off your old disc ( config magic and evox both make backups) - and got you banned...

Just a thought: I recently got a copy of Project Gotham Racing on the Classics range (2 for £30 at Game). I played it without my chip on in a normal profile. I got a few read errors with the disc so I turned the chip on and created a new cheating profile so I could play Cone Attack (sometimes I get less errors with the chip on, go figure).

Today, with the chip off, PGR won't let me play the cheat profile with my chip off - it says TV Mode 60Hz. I run a PAL machine with the PAL video mode on, apparently in 50Hz (I forgot when I reset my eeprom I had to change the videomode back). Anyway, the point is PGR locked me out of the game because it thought I was using a foreign game save.

2 points for the conspiracy theorists:

1. Have the Classics been modified for this to happen?
2. Would Live check game saves for any game to check they've been hacked, even non-Live games...?

Hmmmmm..........

Yeah I was kind of aiming for humour/sarcasm there as it goes. Guess I missed the mark...

The only case, I could apply this to, would be Wolfenstein and PSO. The nimrods who change the system's name to something diffrent, will make you show up like white on black.

You've been banned for 4 days and you have yet to call tech support? Why bother troubleshooting and wondering about it? All you have to do is ask why you are banned.
