I have a 20GB Hard drive for the Xbox360, and a few days ago I noticed that it really is only capable of holding 13.6GB or something really close to that area. My Xbox360 just broke today and a technician told me that I had to pay $100 to get it fixed. I just decided it would be stupid to do that, when I could just buy a brand new 60GB system for $300. My hard drive is almost completely full so I am getting a new hard drive regardless, but I'm just wondering if the 60GB hard drive really has 60GB, and if the 120GB really has 120GB. I don't want to buy a 60GB Pro system and find out that it really has 45GB, and I don't want to buy a 120GB Elite system to find out that it has 80GB. If someone could please tell me how many GB are really in a 60GB and how many gigs are really in a 120GB, it would be greatly appreciated. It would also be nice if someone would tell me whether I should buy the Pro (60GB) or the Elite (120GB). I think it would be weird to have white controllers and acecceries with a black system. The Pro is $300 and the Elite is $400. They are both exactly the same except for color, data capacity, and the Elite comes with a $50 HDMI cable that I will be buying if I get the Pro anyway. So it basically comes down to whether I want the extra 60GB for $50 or not. Share your experiences and do your best to help me out, and sorry for all the mispellings. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated!!!!

I got a brand new Olevia 37" Widescreen LCD HDTV last year for Christmas. My grandma actually got it on Black Friday from Wal-mart for $500. I was really excited to get my new TV, considering that I had been playing on a Zenith 27" for 10 years. I'm 15 years old and I'm a very avid Guitar Hero and Rock Band player, I have beaten EVERYTHING on Expert on them all except for singing on Rock Band, and I'm also the best at both games in my entire school. People know me as the Guitar Hero Kid. But anyway, I opened up my new TV and hooked it all up. I quickly put in Guitar Hero II and was about crapped my pants. The first song I played, I noticed a pretty bad lag problem and realized that there was a lag calibration system in the game already. I tried it and it didn't work at all, I have tried to calibrate the lag both manually and with the game in so many ways, and I have not found a single setup that has worked yet. It's driving me crazy that I can't play Guitar Hero and my mom got me Guitar Hero: World Tour for my birthday, but I can't play it! I have no idea what I can do anymore, and I'm honestly about ready to just sell the TV and get a different one. So here are the questions I would like to ask:

1. Does anyone have any decent lag settings for an Olevia 37" LCD HDTV that I could use?

2. Is there any other way that I could fix the lag without getting a different TV, such as getting a different audio system or plugging the cables into the back of my TV different?

3. Has anyone else had any problems such as this, and if so, what did you do to fix it?

If anyone could possibly help me in any way I would greatly appreciate it. I will do almost anything at this point to play Guitar Hero or Rock Band Drums. My parents strongly disagree with getting a new TV and have already yelled at me for even suggesting it. I have played real drums for 8 years and guitar for 1 year and have been playing video games for 13 years. So as you can tell, music and video games are what I value most in life. I've been searching for answers for a year and am about ready to give up. It's driving me crazy and I would really appreciate it if anyone could help at all. Thanks for reading all this and sorry if I typed something wrong.
