Are some XBLA and DLC just broken on RGH?

[trs180]

I'm having trouble getting Scott Pilgrim working, I tried (seemingly) everything, I tried the demo and I got the closest by extracting the Scot Pilgrim files and installing he latest update and it crashes on load. I also tried installing Chessmaster Live DLC and it gave me a broken download error and Bean no longer works for me for some odd reason other stuff works like Rocket Knight, Sonic Adventure and COD Classic.

Everything should work, so no. Your issue is being caused by dashlaunch to counter what may be a failing hdd.

I didn't think a laptop HDD would fail so easily on a non-portable platform. I heard laptop HDDs fail faster because laptops move a lot and if you take that out of the equation, their longevity is better than 3.5in Drives.

That is most likely the problem unless it's corrupted content or bad dashlaunch settings.

It might be a bad dashlaunch setting, I did screw up my RGH and fix it before and I forgot what I did.

xm360v2.0d - run that and scan then unlock xbla and unlock dlc - can be dashlaunch and aurora setting conflict. Highlight game, press y, find tab for dlc and enable content patching and or other settings.

XM360 says the DLC is already unlocked and it still says the DLC is damaged.

Bad sectors on the hdd?

It is a bad sector, I performed a sanity check with sha256

i had a hdd fail in my modded 360. i put a brand new one in there and it faild after only two years. i also have drives iv been using for 10 years plus.

my scot pilgram game is working fine. i was also gonna suggest unlocking the demo, but if its already unlocked i would guess either bad game or drive is beginning to fail.

i think my drive did the same thing at first.... it stopped playing some games then stopped working all together.

unfortunately, that's the nature of the beast. I had an m2 in my original laptop fail in less than two years, so I had to buy another. didn't matter too much as I needed more space. I also had two external hdds full of games fail, so when I would pirate, I would only get games I'd like to play, but it was more for collective and preservation purposes as I never played the games. the internal hdd in my jtag has been going strong for 12+ years now.

At least Spinning rust gives you signs of failure, when SSDs fail, it's sudden and you aren't given a heads up to prepare a replacement.

That's why I consistently make backups of my hdds.

I like optical media, the Disc Rot problem was solved after DVD-RAM and all Blu-rays have that. I wish Streaming HD was adopted 10 years latter than it was so we could get a proper successor to Blu-Ray.

Crashes as in shows an error message then shuts off the system? Also are you using Aurora?
I had an issue awhile back getting Scott Pilgrim to work, but no errors or crashes, it'd just kick back to Aurora. I think it's an Aurora issue (for me)..
But it seems you are having hdd issues? That's a bit different..

I just installed a SSD, resetup the Fusion Emulator, Splinter Cell Works, Chessmaster Live doesn't yell at me for broken install of the Chess Piece DLC, but Scott Pilgrim still doesn't work.
