Congratulations. You have modded Xbox Live, and you have been banned from Xbox Live.

you cant connect to xbox live with a modded xbox, bt the only way is to make a new account with like a free 2mounth cause you will only acually be able to play for 6 hours then your banned. Tell your friends to get xlink or xbc, that way you can.

does it say "Modifed Xbox Error" <- like my xbox

or will it just not connect? "Cannot find xbox live" because if it dosent connect then you have a Chip or Softmod that stops Live sign in.

I don't think it's an Xbox error or anything of the sort. Think about it: He modded his Xbox, he tried to connect to Live with the mods, and he couldn't connect. It would seem logical that he was banned.

my mate who has a ceartian modchip.... i think its the X3 but not sure, he cannot sign in attal, because the bios has "Sign in Protection" his xbox hasnt been banned from live, as its never been able to get on live with the chip installed.


:::EDIT:::
it wont let you connect? then thats Sign in Protection. most new Bios's / Softmods have it.

because everything i have is directly connected to my router, i dont have proxy on,... but every internet connection is different,

just hop on over to www.xbox-scene.com and ask a few questions in the forums over there, and they will tell you what needs to be done, as i am unfamiliar with sign in protection, (as i never had it and i have "Modified Xbox Error" to show for it)
they will tell you what you need to know

You would have had to have a Live account on your Xbox before you modded it, for it to work. If you made a XBL account before you modded it and it is on your Xbox just coldboot the game you want and it should work.

We can tell you what happened; ie. you were banned, but we can't tell you why or how to fix it. Please take your questions to http://www.xbox-scene.com.
