Tutorial - How To Play On Live With A Modded Xbox Options

[doeman]

Hey guys, just a few days ago i pulled the trigger on XBL service. I have a legit unmodded Box and a softmodded one with Krayzie's Ndure v.1.1.

I setup the XBL account on the legit unmodded box and was able to play XBL on it fine. I then transferred the account to the modded box via mem card. Cold Booted Halo 2 on there and was able to read the new XBL account.

I keep getting the error message that i have no connection though, Any ideas what's going on? I know for a fact that there is a connection and it works fine through XBMC all the time. I have no idea what it's trying to do in coolboot state. Help me out, thanks.

Great topic. Read many of the pages but not all of them. I have a more specific problem anyway. I just moved to Canada and brought along my European xbox. So far I found out that I can only connect it to my TV if I get it modded so that it sends a NTSC signal to the TV instead of PAL (European standard). According to the tutorial here I have to switch of the Modchip before connecting to live. However, I guess if I turn of the Modchip I also loose the NTSC signal?
Any comments or help on this problem? I really have no clue how to solve this. And I am really not keen on buying a second one

Disabling your chip will not revert your console back to PAL. The changes will stay.

hi, if let's say when i played backup copy my network cable is not plugged in as i did found out achievement is actually part of M$ plan to check on modded firmware and when i played online i use original game

so does this makes me valunerable to M$ check?

Okay, I was trying to make sense of the help in this thread but I didn't find a direct answer. I currently have a modded XBox with the Xecuter 2 Chip. I can sign on live fine when I boot without the chip on. I read that I would get banned from XBox live if they detect a larger HDD. I read that I need to move some files to "lock" the drive, but I can't find any specific answers. Thanks for the assistance

Cold boot means that you

1. Turn on your Xbox ,Put in an original game(no backups) in the Drive
2. Turn off your xbox
3. Turn the Xbox back on

You have successfully done a cold boot and now can go on Xbox live

so if I go on xbox live on my softmodded xbox with an original game (mainly Halo 3) it should be fine? and there will not be much of a risk of getting banned?

this refers to xbox, not xbox360, if you want to make sure your safe to play h3 on live check in the 360 Live forums

Just wondering, you talked about switching off the modchip. What about users who have soft modded their XBOX1, what will happen if we connect to live?
