[quote name='manthing']AT&T UVerse is so awesome. :whistle2:([/QUOTE]
I gotta call them up and see what i have to do to get it. For the same price we're paying now i can get a 12Mbps connection and phone service. I don't know if they have to come to install anything or just send me the stuff or what.
 
[quote name='Admiral Ackbar']My xbox has frozen three times in the past four days. It's never done that before.

I think I need to start praying for it.[/QUOTE]

HDMI enabled correct? Next it's going to start giving you checkboard images and crash when you try to boot up games and or the dashboard. Video connector is coming loose and will need to be re-flowed. Your probably fucked. Sorry man.

As you can probably guess , me and my boss at work had the same thing happen to our systems.
 
[quote name='prmononoke']What do you mean by "new?" Unbanned, manufactured after September, or what?

And I have one I bought new in November, and an unbanned one that was probably manufactured in 2006 or 2007, though I'm unsure (I traded my banned console for it).[/QUOTE]

Unbanned, never flashed, would be the best bet.

Maybe, maybe not.
If he starts seeing any sort of visual artifacts (like a comb effect) his GPU is eating it and it will throw an e74.

Well then that's what he should be praying for.:lol: Wish I was that "lucky".

I can't say I've had the problem with the freezing -- but I've had two 360s go belly up with e74... it's pretty much inevitable.

Nice. You read the book right?

[quote name='TheRock88']Anyone know a good site for desktop wallpapers?[/QUOTE]


It's not meant specifically for wallpapers but you might find something you like on caedes.net. Tons of pictures (emphasis on photography) usually with widescreen resolutions.
 
Holy shit, I just found out my girlfriend parents bought me a triple for xmas! I would have never guessed. Apparently they had been trying to buy one for a week and couldnt find it so they ordered it and sent it to me.
 
[quote name='manthing']You don't even need a separate wireless modem with UVerse.[/QUOTE]
You mean that the router and wifi access point are in one unit? My DSL modem is like that.

I mean that there's one unit that the phone line plugs into for everything(TV,internet, phone) also works as the router.

With Comcast I have a cable modem and them my router.

Now you're aiming too high.
 
Setup for UVerse takes like a half hour. Dude will come out and install the wireless hub and the cable boxes, and they should supply HDMI cables if you ask. Promos are different if you sign up at an ATT store than they are if you do it online - it was at one point $200 cash back online vs. $150 in store.

Wholeheartedly support it. I recommend if you're getting extra boxes for the house to do it during the initial install - they don't charge for the extra boxes, and it's a bitch trying to get them to come out afterwards to bring you a new one. One DVR accessible by all boxes in the house.

First system went out with the Red Rings , second box went out with the problem I described above. Hopefully my third will last at least as long as my second (MW2 elite system). And if/when it does go , that it'll go in a way that will be covered by warranty.

PS3's can give black people good credit? It really does do everything!
 
I don't think so, sean. I think they started bundling cell service into the Uverse deal since home phone lines aren't as common as they used to be, but I'm not sure what the discounted bundle rates are.

But wait, it doesn't mena my hard drive is crashign though. if I get an arcade, can I just pop out my hard drive and put it in the new unit? That way I don't have to worry about transferring saves or anything.

Also, I'm feeling like crap. I've been getting sicker over the past three days. I'm supposed to go into work tomorrow. I'll have to see how I feel.

Edit: If I cna just transfer my hard drive I'll order one of those walmart arcades tonight for $$260. I have a $35 in walmert gift cards and I get two free games, 12 month card, and another gift card.

You could do that , then all you would need to do is a license transfer so that all your games and such would be synced up to your new system.

I felt the same way yesterday when I had to go to work. Felt terrible when I work up and considered calling in , but then I remembered that I had to close and there was nobody else to cover my shift , so everyone else that was already there would end up having to work double shifts. I decided to just tough it out and work anyway.

You sort of can. You'll have to redownload all your XBLA content to get the licenses right (if you ever play xbox 360 not connected to live) after using the DRM tool. I think they just overwrite the old copy though, so no biggie. You'll also have to delete and reinstall any game you have on your HDD, but that's not a huge deal.

I'd say if you're not seeing corrupt saves and shit like that, that you're probably in the clear... I've not heard a lot about HDDs failing... usually it's the console. If you have an MU kicking around, you could try to recreate the lock/crash with no HDD installed and see if it happens.
