system update on xbox live

Hey, last night when I hooked up to xbox live, it was asking for a system update, not a game update. I declined and signed out of live. Is it safe to take the update? I am on the new dash with lt + f/w.

Yeah same i just registered to ask the same question

so far those i found not to work are :
Halo reach
Cod Mw2
black ops
Dead rising 2

they come up with "unrecognisable disc" error

would lt+ fix this or not?

Re: system update on xbox live

I'm on LT+ 1.1 BenQ currently playing BlackOps... Haven't been affected by the update...
This seems odd.

Perhaps it's because I have the game stored to my flashdrive? :/

@spooki

Not the flash drive idea, im on a liteon 7... and all games are stored to both my hdd and externals but without any luck

although im not on lt+ i think im on an older firmware

according to other forums dotted around the place its to do with the ap25 security being put into place

i guess we will have to wait till morning for the facts to come though

i hope this isnt the end or im going to the ps3 me thinks

Re: system update on xbox live

After New Dash Update 12625 the following games do not boot (Black Screen):
Black Ops
Modern Warfare 2
Halo Reach

This is an AP2.5 Update so naturally this does not affect non AP2.5 DVD drives (Early Hitachi & Samsung).

If you had LT+ flashed then you will NOT be flagged for a possible ban (good Job c4eva !).

If you did not have LT+ flashed and you tried to boot these games as backups then you are probably flagged for a ban.

AP2.5 Data both PAL and NTSC have been extracted (thanks to c4 and k3) and c4 is now working on the patches and testing will commence.

There will be no need for a firmware update.

We recommend you do not update yet until there is a working method tested and released.

There is no ETA on release so do not ask. if you ask then other members have my permissions to facepalm the offender and ridicule them until they probably start crying.




It seems Microsoft also included a new protection to the update - certain backups won't boot anymore (like: Halo Reach, COD Black Ops and COD MW2) on certain drives (probably AP2.5-capable drives). Microsoft might have been able to activate AP2.5 on some older games.
Booting these games on 360 consoles with AP2.5-enabled drives can possibly result in a BAN (certainly if not using the LT+ FW).
If that's indeed the case, SSv3 for these games will have to be released for them to work on LT+.

You sure about the hitachi/samsung thing?
I'm on a BenQ LT+1.1 from about 2009 with no issues playing games whatsoever.
