My xbox will not read the games

Have you tried DVDs? If you have then you need to clean the disc head reader. That either involves taking it out or going on amazon and finding a head reader cleaning dvd. There may be a chance that a local best buy may carry them but it is a slim chance.

Error E 82

william, as you and I are probably the only 2 ppl on earth who still have these systems(lol) E 82 is a memory malfunction. It could be fixed by swapping out your controller, as the removable memory is found there. Also, make sure you have your A/V cords plugged in correctly. If you don't it can give you a false rrod. 24116750-xoi5c4krg4k0z0fzoraebupb-5-0.jpg

My original xbox console can't recognize games,

Dirty disc, other region disc, not original game (copy) or just a bad dvd drive. The Thompson dvd drive on many of the original xboxes went bad pretty quickly. You can order a replacement dvd drive on ebay. The samsung replacement dvd drives are the best in my opinion.

Free codes live

This error has been identified , and verified by myself when I first got it after playing BF4 the first few days it was out and got the message during the loading screen, to be an internal storage issue rather than any sort of connection problem. Most fast fixes recommend backing up your games,saves, etc. and formatting the HDD to original state to clear what is basically 'read-only' tagged info that is usually newer content or from an external source lke camera's, mp3,etc. How this content got set to a state where it can't be deleted individual is anybody's guess, but mine was the BF4 save data that caused it. I realized this when I popped in BF3 and loaded fine into campaign saved data as well as multiplayer matches with all custom options intact as well as playing a free to play MMO Dust with no issues or lost data. Glas I had only been playing for a couple days and didn't lose much other than level1-2 of the campaign. Strangely enough, the load-outs, server filters, etc. that are stored on EA's external servers remained as I had set them, but the local info (I.e. save data) was corrupt leaving the main options of controller, audio, video, etc. were set to default each time I played the game and reverted to the initial movie cut screen on the campaign mode. What is weird is that it would let me save and continue flawlessly until I turned of the PS3 and then it reared it's ugly head. Hope this helps and you are able to save most of your stuff seing as how it seems to be only from one source, folder, etc. that causes the problem.

2nd controller how to get it to work

Turn on your console. Turn on the controller. Press the "sync" button on the front of the console. Within 3 seconds press the "sync" button on the top of the controller. (between the triggers, above the battery) If it does not sync chances are the controller is failing. Replace as needed, or plug it in.
