Subject: Question about clearing your Xbox 360 cache because of map problems.

~spread it on~

So my 360 recently just lost two of the map packs by itself, i dunno what happened, it allowed me to download the tombstone/desolation one back, but it wont even let me download the big 5 pack map pack that somehow got deleted. I read some posts that said you can clear your xbox 360 cache, but then have to download all of your updates and everything again. I was just wondering if that would delete downloadable content such as the 12 or so guitar hero 2 songs i have downloaded that i had to pay for, because i dont want to have to pay for them again if clearing my 360 deletes them. If anyone knows whether they will be alright or not, or knows some way for me to get the maps back without doing any clearing it would be appreciated. thx

to clear the cache:
Go to the system blade and then select memory.
Press Y on the HD symbol and then press X,X,Left Bumper, Right Bumper, X,X. Once you do this a messsage will appear saying: Do you want to perform maintenance on your Xbox 360 storage devices?

Clearing your Xbox 360 cache deletes only software updates.

Also, when you download something off the Xbox Live Marketplace that you paid for, you'll always be able to re-download it for free afterwards, so you'll never be charged a second time.
