So I had a problem with my original version of 007 AUF freezing at the same spot in the game. I took it back and got a new copy. This time it froze at a different spot in the game so I contacted the makers of the game. They had a solution that actually worked. They told me to unplug everything from the system (controllers/DVD kit) and to leave just one official MS controller plugged in. I did this and for some reason it worked. I thought this was a really weird solution and decided to share it with all of you :p . (I guess this is just another reason why 3rd party stuff isn't as good as the original.)

Right on man. Things like that are always good to know. Of course I hope I never have any problems, but if I do I know what to try out.

Mmmmm.... strange but interesting. Was your dvd kit and other controllers official xbox stuff?

I wonder if that'd help for others experiencing freezing problems in other games as well. Could be a bit of useful info, thanks for the post Don.

The only problem I've had is that sometimes my XBox doesn't recognise game discs, I have to eject them a couple of times but this is very rare. Anyone else get this?

I had 2 3rd party controllers plugged in, a Japanese controller, and the original controller that came with Xbox.
