Well..forcme,ive had nowt but crap..i browse through support etc,to see if testing this for them would be a good idea..i thought cos it has internt explorer with it,then its worth it..as a feature,the idea,and how it works is great idea that everyone shouod have access to..but i cant help but feel that this is the cause of my trouboes ive had only since getting it..freezing,random log outs, cant access certain things,error messages that ive never heard of, connecting,but not able to see friends dashboard avaters but see they sign in...its crazy the problems...just a heads up, i wouod not have got this ifvi knew this sort of stuff wouod happen..now,ive started downloading the dlc for evo,and,youve guessed it, i cant play it due to an error..so, im gutted.ill be on the phonevall day to microsoft who own the biggest company on the planet,but cant sort stupid issuse out......

I signed up for the last beta, but had problems once the real version came out so didn't bother with this beta --- sounds like I made the right decision...I can wait for internet explorer until the actual dashboard update.

sorry for your hassles morfy

Yeah,its cool.mate..barry did actually warn me that they are not a good idea...should have listened to him...as for the explorer, its a great addition..if only you could download silverlight etc,it would make xbox a really hitec,much sorted console....

Have fun guys on the dlc..im sure i will be on it soon..

Hey fella, i cant guarentee this will work, but no harm trying eh?

One of my freinds totally messed his xbox up by modding it and had problems accessing his games etc, He read on a forum somewhere that there was a way of by-passing the current firmware on boot up enabling him to use his xbox but only on the default factory setting.

cant remeber which way it was so try both, but when he booted his xbox on he would use the (1)eject button or (2)holding the sync button on from of xbox and then pusing the eject button.

To get ure xbox fixed properly ure better off ask MS to send u the current stable firmware (email) and then get them to go thru with you on the phone how to flash the xbox back to it original state

Hope this helps?
