the 360 supports the old xbox games all you have to do is put it in and it will play you dont have to buy anything, thanks, jamie

Your best bet is to go to a local video game store, where they will be able to remove the settings through a data transfer. If that doesn't work , you may have to get a new hard drive. You can always recover an xbox live account from another xbox, so don't worry about losing your account (unless the account was never connected to Xbox Live in the first place, then there's a good chance you lost your account).

Hello! Good to see the old generation of gamers, breeding a young :)

The 360 has some rather neat parental controls. It's called family settings. Here is the details of it, how to set it, etc.

Good luck!

And remember, you were a kid too once.

check the manual,there will be a way to reset it to factory settings (no password), but will lose all stuff saved in memory (check the manual about this warning).

Some game are compatible with the new xbox 360. They are called backwards compatible and you do need to flash upgrade the OS on the new xbox 360 system.

You need to go to the xbox website and go to support and download the flash update then burn it to disk and put it on the xbox to update the software. Again not all old games are compatible with the new xbox system. If your buying used games like I do make sure it says bc next to the title before buying them.
Here is the link to the upgrade

The 360 and xbox.com uses your Live ID as your login. Instructions for changing your Live ID password can be found here.

Hi Michell,
Is this On An XBox 360 ??
Mike @ Compurepair.

Did you try using a cd lens cleaner in the XBox 360 dvd drive? Check the cds that they are not scratched, and you could have your son try the discs in another XBox 360.
