Yeah I had to do the same thing when I bought a bigger HD. Sucks.

Hopefully you returned the cable. IT been one thing if the cable allowed you to still "talk/save" with the original HDD but it doesn't.

Also the whole reason I bought it was just to transfer GOW 2 to my new box. Wel lcome to find out when I sold my broken Xbox I forgot to pull out the disc, god I have had a bad gaming week.


SPECIAL ALERT: I have been meaning to bring this up for years but keep forgetting, don't let your Xbox Live membership auto renew (you literally need to call to ensure this doesn't happen). Instead let it cancel and wait a few days they will send you a bunch of great offers to renew. I just got 12 months for $25.

This should really be illegal. I should be able to cancel the service within the service. Makes me angry!

I know it pisses me off as well and they try to so hard to get you to renew. It is annoying.
