Xbox360 Crashes?
« on: 23 November 2005, 19:26 »
"Jsgongwon, one of our forum members, reported that his newly bought Xbox 360 keeps crashing while playing Project Gotham Racing 3 in single player mode. He's playing with the default settings, and apparently his Xbox crashes even before the end of the first lap. Crashes on Xbox Live and on startup occur too. He included screenshots of the crashed Xbox 360 and a video of the crash.

A quick look on our forums seems to indicate he's not the only one. Several of our members seems to get crashing 360s. It doesn't seem to be related to a specific game, as we get reports of the Xbox 360 crashing with several games. And it's not all the same Error-number either (E79, E74, E64, real crashes, ...)."

This is exactly why you need to hire full-time beta testers for your next-gen console :)

Windows XP Service Pack 2. Because we couldn't be arsed the first time.

Windows 98 Second Edition. Look, now you don't need that bloody CD to install new hardware.

Windows Vista. Even your computer knows you have a small penis.

Windows Blackcomb. We are planning the OS after Vista, which is allready a year late.

Windows ME, the Marmite Operating System.

XP Mobile. Take your errors with you.

Or you can go outside and get some air, while it is still free.

The air here ain't so good ... smells like pollution ... and burnt tires ... so it's probably healthier to play games than inhale the air :D

A console crashing? A computer sure, but not a console. There made for only one purpose, to play games. Computers crash because of conflics, consoles are to single minded to crash easily.

Except you forget that Microsoft is too single-minded to construct anything properly.

I think they took the BSOD out of XP so it probably won't be in the 360. It's now "illegal error" or some other BS which requires you to restart.

It's not in the 360 anyway.

Whatever Windows is running on it (my guess it's 2003), they would have to port it from x86-64 to PPC.
Maybe this is the source of trouble?
