Cant sign into live

Having a nightmare this morning, turned the xbox360 on, loaded the Dashboard, but wouldn't sign my profile into Xbox Live. The profile loads briefly, the theme changes and then it goes straight back the original state with no profiles signed in. I can load profiles that I have created that are not associated with Xbox Live without problems. I can recover the profile from Xbox Live no problem - although it still doesn't work. I have run the Xbox Live connection system from the System > Network menu and this shows no problems.

When using my x-box the msg cant sign into messanger keeps appearing what can i do to resolve this

Hi Stephen!

When your Xbox 360 signs you into Xbox Live, it automatically attempts to sign you into Live Messenger, as they use the same communications systems since Microsoft bought MSN.

To resolve this error message popping up every time you sign in:
  1. Sign into Xbox Live,
  2. In the Xbox Dashboard, scroll over to your Gamer profile,
  3. Find the "Auto Sign-In" tab,
  4. Under "Windows Live Messenger", check "Disable".
Hope this helps!
