i bought a xbox 360 premuim today with the Xbox Live gold membership with 1 free month i think... and i have followed the registration until the "Xbox Live Membership" screen, were you can choose, gold and silver account, and then there is "Redeem Prepaid Code"... shouldn't i have that code? :mefiant:

but umm I CANT FIND IT!! :cry:

please!, if u know the answer!, please tell me how to do!

[craigie22]

no

that is if you buy a microsoft points card. You don't need it to start Xbox Live

[NWATA]

You dont need to enter that code. The Gold membership is already active from the moment you turn on the console.

[viking_08]

no

oh ok :P.. but what schould i do?, im stuck in this menu :(.. or should i just press B untill i get to the beginning again?

ok, but why does this menu come up and ask me if i want to buy membership? :S

[davie18]

Those points are optional.

You would use them for stuff such as downloadable content, pictures packages, themes etc.

[craigie22]

becuase you can buy membership for the whol year ect. or just get the free trial and upgrade at the end of the month.

I guess you just have to keep pressing B until you can get to the beginning

you need points to download things that cost money or points

[viking_08]

2. Migrate Your Xbox Live Account
3. Join Xbox Live

Its just Microsfts way of trying to make you spend money

Hmm, it should automatically sign in, or your Gamertag (the name you used when going through the setup), should be there.

[craigie22]

u prob haven't if it took you to this screen

you could try pressing migrate and type in the gamercard you thought u just made and see if it works

[viking_08]

yeah i just tried.. but it didnt work :(

[davie18]

Well, I would try what craig just said, then read it carefully when you have to put a code in, it may be an xbox live activation code or something which could be on the 360's box.

[craigie22]

yeah make a new account

[viking_08]

Davie18 - i've looked in the box but i didn't see anything like an activation code, but i'll read it even more carefully now as im making a new account :P


craigie22 - Yeah, hope it works now :P


Thanks for the help guys!!!!!, hope i can get this working so i can join all of you in the TDU Demo later today :D

but if i have any more probs, i'll be back ;) .. hehe

[craigie22]

no problem :)

[Gaskellorama]

yeah i just tried.. but it didnt work :(

have you tried looking at the microsoft website it's signup thing is pretty straight forward!! but th emigration thing i think only works if you have xbox live on the old xbox!!
