The console crashes when in dashboard, games load but crash as soon as you go to play the game, my music works. crashes when i go to system settings only just start doing this in the last 2 days, console hasnt been on for 1 week.

Go to the setting then go on storage then you should see the option to press Y press that it will clear all updates on your console now try borderland and re download the up date and see if it persisted

It crashes because of EA :) They have problem with their servers and I think they've been shut down servers for a while. That's why you can't play online. But when I play offline, I can't save the game in any point or otherwise it says "Save failed" for plenty of times. I don't know why :)

Power off the xbox 360. Hold down the sync button and power on the unit, don’t release the sync button until it’s loaded all the way to the dashboard.
or
Press the following key combination

Left Trigger, Right Trigger, X, Y, Left Bumper, Right Bumper, Up, Left Bumper, Left Bumper, X


This should give you a dialogue asking whether or not you want to reset your system to factory default settings.

Sounds like the update did not install properly. You will have to go back and try to run it again.
xboxscene forums has the answer, unfortunately I can't open the page right now. look up "bad update freezing" or "system freezing after update".

Sorry I don't have the link.

it is believed that the ps servers have crashed, so the only thing that can be done is to wait, and hopefully it will be sorted soon.

you need to buy a mod chip

Can you explain exactly what you were doing when it crashed? Were you playing a game / installing a firmware update etc?

You problay have to buy another wii system.

hi there im not sure about this 1 but have you tried getting a laser cleaner for it ?

Are you sure that in the system settings the xbox is set to Load game instead of boot to dashboard? This will be located on the blade on the far right of the dashboard. If no help, try this: First, a stupid step - Make sure a compatible game disc is in the xbox, and turn it off. If it continues to boot to dashboard upon powering up, you could always try removing the system updates by: 1. Turn the console off 2. Press and hold the small sync button on the front of the console (the one you use to connect new controllers) 3. Turn on the console whilst still holding the sync button 4. By the time it has booted to the dashboard, the updates should be cleared. As the first version of the dashboard did not have the option to boot to dashboard by default, game discs should start normally now. If this is the case, feel free to re-download the updates from xbox live. Hope this helps!
