I bought a 500gb Xbox fully loaded with origins dashboard and games - one game (GTA San Andreas) appears on “featured games” but when I press A the console resets - how do I delete it from appearing in “Featured Games” - or could I add the game somehow as I have the disk?  Thanks

Is it a PAL console? There were known issues with the NTSC game being played from hdd. Is the game located anywhere else on your system? Does it show up under the Games menu?

If so have you tried running it from there? 

The solution back in the day involved changing settings in EVOX dash to make it work but as you are using Origins (which is XBMC i believe) those wont help you.

I have run this game and even modded versions of it from my hdd with no issues.

Yes - it’s a PAL console - I’ll check the drive tomorrow but the favorites folder is the only way to access it on the dashboard

the game isn't in your "games" tab?  it shouldnt be popping up in your featured area if it wasnt there, it needs the file structure to even pop up,

the game is probably in a directory such as F>games>GTA San Andreas

just FTP into your Xbox and delete the folder that contains the game, then it wont pop up anymore.

Thanks - any reason why the game doesn't work?  Thanks

The game could be missing files or it could need the PAL fix that I believe was needed to play the NTSC game on a pal Xbox. 

I have the fix files I will upload them for you here.

      PcsXBox - Just Wont Load Game Files
      By Danthuyer
      So i'm pulling whats left of this old mans hair out trying to simply get a good old game of gran turismo working or resident evil ....BUT NO pcsxbox is being difficult
      I've downloaded many versions and tried loading all the different .bin versions into the bios but it simply wont run anything. The application simply hangs and doesnt load any .bin or .cue i try to play.
      Some experienced help would be appreciated - I have triev version 22 b25 and redux version 21 and they both do the same thing - allow me to select the files but then nothing happens

      Intermittently Not Booting and Games Locking Up
      By SS_Dave
      A while ago I had a version 1.0 box fail to boot intermittently and every time I moved the hard disk it would come good.
      The drive is a WD 500 gig Pata/Ide drive.
      I closed the power connectors in the molex plug and swapped the 40 way cable still the same. As I had nothing to lose I removed the PCB thinking it had dry solder joints on the power and 40 way connectors but I noticed the contacts for the heads and spindle motor are tarnished. A quick clean of the PCB and spring contacts with iso-propyol alcohol and reassemble and it has not missed a beat since (3 weeks and still going and before it was every 2nd day)
      I now have a Seagate 1tb from a desk computer with the same symptoms and after removing the PCB it looks the same. This drive is 2 years old and has had a max of 1.8tb data transferred to and from it so bugger all. and 1/3 for that was rescuing the data from it
        
       
      Something to keep in mind for intermittent drive problems.

      Plugged it in and tested all looking good except for the dodgy bottom line of text on the LCD.... Anyone have any ideas?
