Sure, I've heard of many who share your troubles. The new slims are quite shifty if you ask me. If it's not too much, I'd suggest picking up an original Xbox for like 30 dollars or so.

Honestly though, details on the new Xbox's performance of original titles are shy, and the whole matter is folly. Perhaps you have an Arcade version? I heard that those have problems quite often. Either way, it would seem that your Xbox cannot run Halo 2. Whatever the case, my suggestion still stands.

Good luck in your difficulties. Apologies I could not be of supplemental aid.

Well, I don't know for playing campaign but people used to have to make sure the Parental controls are off. There's a system setting like 'play all games' or such. Maybe make sure your original setup is good?

I also heard that if you bought a HDD off e-bay it may not have the emulator needed to play H2. I have no proof of what I said, just things to think about.

Wait, I remember more now, I think JacobG said that pirated HDD's did not have the correct partitions.

After research, if you are missing Partition 2, that is the emulator and there are sites that say you can still add the Partition 2. I'm still working under the assumption that you have a HDD without Partition 2 so all this typing may be for nothing, lol.
