[QUOTE="Govatenks"]i got banned off xbox live so i wanted to get a new xbox but using the same hard drive. I know i will have to recover my gamertag and all the achievements i earned will dissapear but will the game data dissapear also?SheikLives

Okay, I'm going to answer your question quickly. Was your HD or memory card in the system WHEN it got banned? If it was, your **** is nuked. All of it, your memory saves...your gamertag.....all of it. Anytime you plug that HD or memory card into a LEGIT xbox, the information is going to come up as corrupt. You have to physically wipe the stuff off of your saving devices and start over. You can and will recover your gamertag. That is all. Any gamerscore points you acquired while playing on the banned box after it was banned will not count. long story short...if it was attached to the system the moment it was banned..you have to erase it and start over. no, plugging the HD devices back in after they've been wiped or cleaned will not get you banned. a modded system will get you banned. i wouldn't advise you to continue to keep info from the banned console on your HD since MS is subject to change their policy at any time...
