I recently bought a new xbox arcade after my old PRO broke. I just popped on my old harddrive onto my new arcade and everything was working fine. Today when I tried to play Halo: CE which I downloaded from the marketplace it would not play. Anerror would pop up saying "Cannot play Halo:CE", or something like that.

Any suggestions, solutions. Help would be appreciated, Thanks.

OK, new question. I figured out that the games were downloaded under my brothers account, Microsofts DRM policy probably keeps DLC with only the person who downloaded it in the case of a new xbox. Anyways, anything I can possibly do to get the stuff on my account?

No, you can't pass around stuff with DRM, that's the whole point..

Are gamertags are on the same console and I could use the stuff he downloaded and vice versa. Can't do this on the new box.

Just pay out the money to re-download the game onto your account. I think Originals are something like $15.00 so it's not a bad price to pay for a memorable game that sold at $50.00 a few years ago,
