Every ten minutes or so when I'm signed into windows live I get kicked offline. I have tired to re-install halo 2, re-download my live account and I still get a maximum playing time of ten minutes (if any at all.) When I do check the error messages that procede after I fail to connect to windows live I get error messages that don't even exist, so I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so, how can I fix this?

What version of windows live you got, because that could be the problem.

Where can you get different versions?

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.

Well no, and the term is "living under a rock" for those people who live "inside rocks". And I've been looking into my problem and I'm not the only one, quite a few people have been (or haven't been) having problems signing onto windows live and staying on, so hopefully people will come out with a patch to fix this. For the moment the only thing I've been able to do is restart my computer, not start any other programs, then run halo 2 and if it fails I have to restart my computer agian.

sounds to me like you have a crappy internet connection. Mine used to cut off the same off the time the same but i moved house n it was okay then. I had an 8mb/s connection aswell which is ok (for the uk) the thing that fukked it up was the fact that the connection dipped all the time and was not consistently 8mb/s. You don't notice the dips when your browsing the web but u sure do when you online gaming!

Might you have a router or a firewall?

The connection is wired and as far as I can tell has nothing to do with a lack of speed comming from my end, and to adress the router, I do have one and it and my firewall have been tweaked to microsofts specifications to make sure that its not dragging down the connection speed.
