Problem with oem Hd not working

[Luisitopr]

Feliz Navidad the deal.
I was using my xbox to connect to xboxlive swaping my hd. My 120gb have with my games backup and mp3 and the oem for playing in xboxlive. But saturday after trying to connect to xboxlive with my oem hd I got the service message on the screen, thats its typicall noob error of not loking the hd. But my oem hd is locked. With this error you may ask if I have a back up of the oem hd somewere in my pc, thing that i do. I have it in my pc and on a dvd. but the problem comes here I can make a second back up of the hd see everything that is inside the hd but I cannot drop inside of the hd anything. I think it was my router bougth a crossover cable and got inside of it and NADA (nothing).
The question what can be done to fix it or if my oem is dead what i can do to go on xbox live ??

Hey,
How do you know the error is a hard drive error?
Can you give us the error code number?

I didn't quite understand. You said you played xbox live with the OEM hard drive. Then one day you went to play and you got the error code. Is this right?

Taken from ps3news



The new security against piracy and video game backups is reported in Kinect and the Beta XBox 360 Firmware along with Fable 3 thus far.

I have condensed the information to avoid being too technical, and some of the information has been taken from other people's posts from some high rated members, some not.

• In a new XBox 360 Beta firmware that leaked to the Internet, Microsoft has appears to have added new checks to see if a disc is legit inside the disc drive.

• One of the games that has been found to be giving problems is the release of Fable III. Right now it's unclear which games, DVD models and/or modified FWs are exactly affected.

• The software appears to run some checks on the disc in a way not thought before, with responses that can cause your console to be perma-banned, due to failing "Failed AP25 Challenge", OFFLINE!

• Here's some details from Logic-Sunrise, to quote: "We told you about here is now some time reports a rumor of a new integrated protection in Dashboard KINECTS. It seemed that this new security is a continuous verification system firmware when connecting to live and preventing flashed consoles to connect to it...

After the launch yesterday of the latest beta DashBoard (K: 2.0.12606.0), the rumor seems to become reality and the result even worse than previously thought. Indeed flashed consoles that have this update is no longer possible to run backups and displays this error."

• Even people that are in the official beta program are having problems running backups of Fable III, and people that have ripped their legitimate copies using a "0800" drive have found that the copy circulating on the internet match the copies in stores.

• A user by the name of Unregistered007 ran some tests of his own on his 2 XBox 360s stated, "I have 2 Xbox360s:

1. Offline Elite never been on Xbox Live with LiteOn 8xxxx Series - The firmware is 1.5v as I have to use activation disc to boot Wave 4 Ripped Games. It has the first built of leaked Kinect Xbox 360 dashboard when the preview program started. Fable 3 works without problems. (Installs and Plays)

2. Xbox 360 Elite registered officially in the Beta Program with Latest Update. It has LiteOn 74xxx Series with LT firmware. (I just paid someone to do it yesterday). After the update the console was taken offline for good. Fable 3 gives the Unrecognized Disc Error. (This Console has the Latest Build - Oct 26, 2010)

Something definitely is going on. Lastly when I booted Fable 3 my profile became corrupt and I had to re-download it form Xbox Live."

• The new protections also appears to be corrupting profiles and causing corruption after playing back-uped games AND original games.

• Another post by Unregistered007 puts it into perspective with another view: "New Test and Update and Bad News: I am about to go to bed so I will keep it short.

Sorry but the ONLY Logical explanation is that Xbox360 OS has been totally updated - not just the numbers and not just the interface.

If you have the latest Xbox 360 dashboard(Kinect Beta) and Fable 3 then when you play Fable 3 some sort of check is being performed and the Xbox360 is creating a BAN flag-Profile is corrupted on the Spot.

Update: I think the Xbox360 OS is checking/Testing every copied or real game you put in the console. Its NOT Fable 3.

CONSOLE HAS NEVER BEEN ONLINE

My Xbox 360 Elite with 8xxxx Series LiteOn firmware 1.5
Kinect Dashboard Version 2.0.12416 (Not officially in the Beta)
Fable 3 patched to Wave 3 works fine.
Fable 3 Wave 4 boots with Activation Disc.
Profile is not Corrupt. (Transferred the Profile to my Xbox Slim and it works)
Used xVal 2.0 and the Xbox360 is clean.

CONSOLE was used ONLINE since Purchase and after taking the Latest Update it was taken OFFLINE. My Xbox 360 Elite with 7xxxx Series LiteOn firmware LT (Paid someone to Flash 2 days ago)

Officially in Kinect Dashboard Version (Latest Version of the Beta)
Fable 3 patched to Wave 3 - Does Not work.
Fable 3 Wave 4 - Does Not Work.

At first I put in Fable 3 and then played Fallout NV. The Profile was corrupt when I transfered to my un-modded Xbox360 Slim. I thought may be it was corrupt because I placed in Fable 3. I then placed in my Clean Profile in the Xbox and just tested Fallout NV - Profile Corrupt. (I need to check if I log in my profile and log out without playing anything will it corrupt) Used xVal 2.0 and the Xbox360 is not Clean - AP 2.5 Test Fail.

As long as you keep your Xbox 360 off line your console will not be banned how ever the Xbox OS is Corrupting Profiles OFFLINE and that is not good. I think people should STAY AWAY form the Dashboard Update. I think MS has found a way to find and discomfort people who keep one Xbox for OFFLINE backups only.

If you console is flagged like mine and is Corrupting Profiles I don't think there is an easy fix for that. However I think someone might come up with a new firmware for the drives and pass the new Anti Piracy 2.5 scheme.

I just want my console un-flagged for now. I can still create an ONLINE repair Order for the Flagged 360. My conclusion is that, what ever checks MS was doing ON Live are being done inside the Xbox and once you connect the 360 to Live - GAME OVER."

New protection confirmed in the Kinect dashboard

A lot of people are coming here to grab the Kinect dashboard updates that are being uploaded, but there's a new protection in it. I can't see a thread about it, so apologies if it's been talked about already.

Confirmation from c4eva here: -

C4E Confirms New AP2.5 Checks on New Dashboard with New Games - Scenyx Entertainment Community

AP25 first talked about by Xorloser here: -

New Xbox360 Disc Protections? Bans to follow? « xorloser’s blog

This protection is why many people haven't been able to boot Fable 3, as it's the first game that has the protection on the disc. Here's what happens when you boot it on a console with the Kinect dashboard: -

1. The game is recognised by the 360, will install, but if you try and boot it, it says "This disc is unreadable".

2. Your console is then flagged for a ban for failing the AP25 challenge. You can check if your console has been flagged by using XVal 2.0: -

Xbox-Scene News: XVal 2.0 and Xbox Image Browser v1.0

3. Your gamertag will then only work on that particular Xbox 360. If you move it to another 360, it will show up as corrupt. A lot of people use an offline, flashed 360 to play games, then they sign into Live on another 360 to update their achievements/gamerscore. This stops you doing that.

The above 3 things happen just by booting Fable 3 on the Kinect dashboard. You don't need to connect to Live in order to suffer these effects, so it doesn't matter if you stay offline. I should clarify that only backups of Fable 3 are affected, not originals.

New firmware is being worked on, but there's no ETA. The first Wave 7 game has appeared (Hasbro Family Game Night 3), so this may contain the Kinect dashboard update - I can't confirm this though. It's not known which, if any, other games apart from Fable 3 contain the new protection. It's possible that the protection can be added to older titles via updates rolled out on Xbox Live.

So if we are just offline players we shouldn't be affected by installing the update from our valid or backups and then playing backups later on.

So far I've installed Fable 3's backup copy and haven't had any issue playing it and transferring to other games. But I've yet to install and play my backup of Black Ops. That is what I'm worried about. Will it install something to corrupt my profile even I never ever switch my HDD

If Fable 3 runs on the "old dash" and profile doesn't corrupt your profile I dont see how Black Ops would unless it forcibly updates your box. I'm assuming you're not transferring HDD back and forth between a modded and an unmodded box here.

Will a profile that has been on the new dash work on the old dash offline?

Re: consequences of Updating dash explained.

Is the new dashboard stored on the hdd or internal memory?

If i install the new dashboard on one consle, then put my hdd into a different offline console will it update that console's dashboard as well?
