Like if I am heading from sending a message going back it takes....a while.

Plus if I put down the dashboard running a game, it still takes longer then it should?

 

What is wrong?

Mine was fine until today, I came on here to ask if people were having problems but I guess they are.

Every time I try and do something with my friends list... compare games and ESPECIALLY send messages, the machine locks up. I'm not playing the beta and it wasn't happening when I first downloaded the update.

EDIT: If anyone finds an answer, please post back here!!!

and here i was thinking my xbox was dying or something, but mine started doing it last night, while I was logged into live, maybe i should try logging out and see if it still does it, sometimes it just slows way down and finally changes and other times it locks completely and I have to reset my xbox, I hope the fix it.

Same with me, its because theres so many people on the Halo 3 servers, this is why they released a beta, to test everything. Microsoft now knows they need to fix this up and speed up the networking or it will always be like this. it pisses me off how slow it goes

I've been encountering the same problem. For me it only began yesterday, since the beta. It seems to be bad within the beta as well, stopping or not being able to close while looking for a game. It is really annoying though as your waiting to close the guide and can't not to mention if it freezes completely.

I have only noticed it on my friends list. I was going to the "prefer player" thing for some new friends I added and it locked up 5 times in a row, so I havent bothered since. I am sure it will come out of it eventually, whatever the reason is. I dont think its the update because I was able to do what I described after installing the update.

well, while searching the web I checked out bungie.net and there are currently 99,000+ people on halo 3 beta, so that might have something to do with it.

This is NOT a console related issue. If Microsoft Reps tell you otherwise, then they are complete morons.

This is a network related issue. Primarily Microsofts network is overwhelmed. There is nothing you can do.

You the consumer already shell out $50 a year for Microsoft to keep their network up to par.

Microsoft needs to step it up and fix this crap. Its ridiculous!!!!!

Same thing here, but I was trying to send messages and compare games... which I've done several dozen times since the update. Must have something to do with a couple million people downloading the Halo 3 beta.

I'm having the EXACT same thing and I only noticed it today.  At first I thought my system had frozen but then it recovered.  It's happened twice so far.

it's not the spring update.  that's been out for a few weeks and people would've noticed this by now.  I play my 360 pretty much every day and i've not noticed a thing until this morning.  you probably wouldn't be getting the lag when you aren't signed into xbox live so that would rule out a software issue. ask yourself this... Could there be a new, hot ticket item available for download over Xbox Live that may be tieing up a great deal of the Xbox Live bandwidth?  Could this be the reason for my lag looking at my friends list and retrieving messages?

I hate to say it but I think this will get worse this weekened when Live hits peak traffic hours.  And I don't think this will resolve once everyone's downloaded the beta, this could be caused by all the matchmaking and stuff that's going on as well since the beta is probably being run on MS servers.  I also didn't mention that my system took forever to load the gamerpics of people in my friends list as well as taking forever to load stuff in marketplace.

It may be completely unrelated but I'll post my 2 cents anyway.

I found that if u have live auto sign in enabled as well as MSN auto sign in enabled. The dashboard takes a significant performance hit.

With just live auto sign in enabled, it takes 2 secs to sign into live, load profile dashboard etc.

With msn enabled, it jumps to around 10 - 15 secs to sign into live, load profile, dashboard etc.

I have now disabled my msn, apart from that, I cant say Ive had any problems with friends list etc and I was only playing last night..
