Extract the rar so you have a folder called $systemupdate, put that FOLDER on a USB thumb drive, so you have X:\$systemupdate with a file inside that folder.

Then just plug it into your 360 and when you turn it on, it'll ask you to update. It wont brick your system unless you do something silly (like turn it off mid-update). All these updates are signed by Microsoft, there's no way to create a "bad" one that the 360 will install.

Thanks, updating now (Y)

Went flawless for me. Had it updated and running about 5-10 mins after Kushan verified that thumb drives work. I'm only replying so late because I got caught up in messing with my Avatar, lol.

I had to give the TV back because I interrupted the misses' show, but now I've got something to keep me up tonight. (Y)

Kushan don't post sensible things, you know the only acceptable reply is to say "**** Sony".

Get with the times :rolleyes:

It's not ideal for 360 owners no, but it's hardly suprising. Nintendo recently blocked Goldeneye, a single game, from even getting to MS.

Some are available, maybe others will come.

I hate to break it to you, but most companies actually would NOT be doing that.

Microsoft works closely with Sony on numerous computer-related endeavors. Their business in other categories isn't affected by their console ventures. I mean, hell, look at Microsoft and Apple! Both release software on the other platform despite the obvious competition there.

Your comparison to Nintendo and Golden Eye is completely different. That's a GAME that was published by Nintendo that they don't want on another console. That makes perfect sense. This does not.

This is a completely different aspect of both businesses, and if Columbia not allowing streaming is because of the PS3/360 thing, that's pretty lame.

is installing the update that kushan posted safe? As in we cant get banned for installing it?

No, the updates are stored on your hard drive when you install them, so if you were in the preview program and plugged your hard drive into another console, that console would then update. This is those same files.

    • Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 PC case is now 33% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The Cooler Master MasterFrame 600 is currently $109.99 on Amazon, down from its original $164.99 list price. That's 33% off and $55 saved on this premium aluminum mid-tower case with a modular design. If you're upgrading your PC case and want something that doesn't force you into a rigid layout, the MasterFrame 600 is worth a look. The case is built around the Cooler Master's FreeForm 2.0 platform, which lets you reconfigure the internal structure according to your hardware. Magnetic side panels allow for straightforward adjustments, and the case supports everything from Mini-ITX to E-ATX motherboards without compromise. There's also generous cooling headroom. Four pre-installed PWM fans handle airflow out of the box. GPU clearance goes up to 410mm, and the case supports radiators up to 420mm with room for three simultaneously. Truth be told, this might not be the prettiest case on the market, but it’s highly functional. The aluminum construction keeps the whole thing lightweight despite its size, and the finish looks noticeably better than the plastic mid-towers competing at this price point. If you want a serious, flexible case that prioritizes function over flashy aesthetics like RGB lighting, the MasterFrame 600 delivers at a reasonable price.
