    My son says that he is not able to play NHL 08 because the prompts tell him he is too young! Yet he is able to play Call of Duty 4. What is with that! Please let him play his hockey game on xbox live!

You need to go to the dashboard and then move the slide all the way to the right thats the system slide when your in the system slide go to the bottom of the list and click initial setup which will make you re-do your profile. you may also notice there is a parent control slide if you know the email address and password used when you set up the console in initial setup go to that and put in the information then you can change what games he can play and all of that.

Who do i get in contact with wen i forgot my microsoft password to my xbox 360

Although you can sign into Xbox LIVE without the need for your LIVE password, you cannot add Microsoft points or buy games without entering your LIVE account information.

All Xbox LIVE accounts are tied into your Microsoft Windows Live account. If you forgot your Windows Live email and password, you can reset your password, but not your email.

Since your email was used to register you to the LIVE network, you had to have used a legitimate email address when you signed up.

Visit the Windows Live login page (see Link Below).
https://login.live.com/login.srf?wa=wsignin1.0&rpsnv=11&ct=1294394625&rver=6.1.6206.0&wp=SAPI&wreply=https://account.live.com/&lc=1033&id=38936

Click "Sign in." Click the "Forgot your password?" link.
Select "I forgot my password" and "Reset your password."


Enter the email address you think you used for Xbox LIVE. Continue entering email addresses that you've used in the past.

Once you enter the correct one, a new page will appear.
You can guess your email as many times as you want.

Select "Email me a reset link."
Click "Next."

Open the email account you send the password to.
If you forgot your password to that email, use the email client's password recovery tool.

Open the "Xbox LIVE" email and click on the provided link.
The link will redirect you to the password reset page.

Enter your new password twice.
Click "Next."

Turn on your Xbox 360 and sign into your Xbox LIVE profile. You should be able to enter your new information to log on to your account and access anything on Xbox LIVE, such as buying a game.

I have just returned from holiday and my xbox has gone onto family settings and it is saying i am too young to play Fifa

This fifa problem has come up alot......

  1. From the XBOX dashboard screen, go to settings and then parental control.
  2. When prompted for the password, perform the following sequence using the XBOX controller: X, Y, Left Trigger, X.
  3. Enter in a new password, or disable parental control entirely.
Do that to make a new password or unlock family settings and change them.

If you cannot edit your settings with that new password, ask your parents for their email/password for the XBOX LIVE PARENTAL account.

From there you should allow all types of games, (no age blocks)

Good luck!
