I have bought alot of points cards for various arcade games and downloadable content but my xbox began to crash and show the 3 red lights indicating an internal problem with the console. Xbox.com advice was to delete any saved game that might be the cause of the problem, failing that delete the player profile - which i did. Now i don't have a profile, gamesaves, downloadable content, arcade games. My xbox is being taken to be fixed soon but my question is...Will i be able to get my old downloads back by re-entering the serial numbers for the microsoft points cards i have. I don't think so but does anyone else have the same problem.

when you recover your account your points should be on there when you go to the market place. And your downloads should have a check buy the purchase thing when you go back in to redownload them. dont worry man, you'll get your stuff back.

Recover your profile from Xbox Live, it should have all your achievements and all the stuff you bought with it, as well as your remaining MS points.

I'll clearify everything:

When you recover your GamerTag, you not only recover the rights to that GamerTag, Achievement Points, Microsoft Points, etc., but you also recover the rights to download anything that you bought (if that makes sense...)

To get everything back, this is what you will need to do:

  1. Recover the GamerTag as you would normally (it's really easy. Just enter E-Mail Address, GamerTag, Password and just sit and wait)
  2. When done, go to the Xbox Live Marketplace Blade
  3. Go to "Account Management", which should be towards the bottom left of you're screen, and select it
  4. You should see something that says "Download History", and go ahead and select it
  5. Once you do, you will be brought a list of things you have downloaded (demos, Arcade games, GamerPics, etc.)
  6. Download everything on that list
  7. Enjoy your new 360 and Hard Drive and all of the things you've bought :)
If you still have any questions, just PM me

thats all there is to it..your gamertag is not only saved on your HDD, but its also saved on the Microsoft XBL servers with all your points, download history, Gamerscore etc. no worries, just do everything Choffy31 listed..
