ok so i put halo 2 in the disc tray it loaded up and it asked for confirmation for an update so i said yes. it updated perfectly and i signed in at the main menu, where i was told i needed an update again so i said yes again, as i wanted to play on live. i was taken to that screen you are shown on the original xbox when u are updating, and the bar started to fill up so i assumed it would be fine as this has happened to me before, up until the point where the screen went completely blank about 1/4 way through the update. i reset the console as nothing else would work, and loaded up H2 again, where i was told that my downloaded content is damaged. i can sign into live but when i do i cant play any games. i have tried doing that "system maintenance" thing on the systems blade but that doesn't work either can anyone help me???

I can't play either, not sure if it's the same cause.
when i start any sort of match it will take me all the way to step 2 'waiting for more players' but nothing happens. after a while, it drops back to step 1.

at first i thought it might be my connection, but i successfully played a match of Lost Planet.
also successfully downloaded the blastacular pack, played them offline a few times.

any idea what's wrong?

Trailer Park Boys ~ One of the best Canadian made comedies ever.

Hope this helps.

You may have to reset your Xbox cache. This clears your Xbox 360 of all software updates and you’ll have to re-download them. Click here and follow the steps to do so.

If you’re still having a problem, call Xbox Live, 1-800-4MY-XBOX and explain to them your issue. They’ll help and correct your problem better than here.
