couple of newbie type questions

Hi,

Looking for some help people, I am wanting to get myself a xbox 360 hard drive so that I can use it for live etc. Anyone recommend somewhere cheap?

Also looking to get myself live now I dont have the old xbox 360 so could not transfer between old to new so what is the cheepest way of getting live?

I have checked on ebay and they are going for 70 notes or more for the hard drive and not wanting to pay that.

There are places on the net selling for £59 think its called choices but not sure how good they are etc.

I bought the wireless adapter from ebay yesterday but it comes with no instructions anyone able to help on how to set this up. I currently have a wireless belkin router/ modem that has wep security on it so I am a wee bit unsure on how I am going to get it to be setup to supply key etc any help much appreciated.

Just got the following games :

doa 4, full auto, battlefield 2, pgr3, ridge racer 6, need for speed most wanted, football manager 06, far cry, kameo

Any clans on here? or does anyone want to set up one if its possible?

Thanks in advance

Wireless adapter: Just plug it into the back USB socket and there is a holder on the console so it stays in place.

Best place for live: Here. I know it is sold out but they keep coming back in (and yes they do work on the 360).

If you check the Xbox 360 games section of this site you will see all the clan info you need.

Nothing wrong with Choices, have used them for many orders and not been dissapointed yet so order with confidence.

Yeah , agree choices is reputable and have used them in the past. Also agree that the link to play.com is the cheapest way to get live but hurry as it goes out of stock quickly, play take between 2-5 days with posting. Hoe you get sorted mate.
