The update deleted all of saved games – Oblivion, Civilizations, Lego Star Wars, Indiana Jones… Any ideas on how to retrieve my data?

well if the update didn’t install, downloading the updater and burning a disc works, but it sounds like gleaner got the update and it messed up his 360 after the fact,

jus an fyi, dont waste ur time with xbox live supprts, i called and was on the fone for 60 mins, they gave me all these solutions and noting worked, so they plain out told me to call them back in a couple of weeks to see if they have a solution…y cnat they jus put the update on their site so i can d.l it and put in a cd and put it on my 360….logical enough..rite? and the clearing the hard drive cache doesnt fix it either, it has nothing to do with the harddrive..

Have you tried clearing your hard drive cache? That might fix the problem, but you may need to re-download game updates after you do this…

To clear the cache on the Xbox 360 do the following:

-Go to the Xbox Dashboard, select the System Blade, and select Memory.
-Highlight the Hard Drive symbol and press Y.
-Press X, X, Left Bumper, Right Bumper, X, X.

You will see a confirmation message to confirm system maintenance, proceed.

This can’t hurt anything, so it might be worth a shot.

I assume you’ve tried a reboot? After the update finally worked, I didn’t run into any of the speed problems you’re describing.

After the update it hangs when I go into the live messenger area.
And everything is really really sloooooooow.

Problems lasted for a couple of hours intermittently this morning. Seems like they’ve got it all straight now. Too bad I did the drive reformat though. Now I have to re-download all my content, and I lost my game saves.

Really? I wasn’t noticing this problem… I downloaded the update last night around 1800-1900.
