Recently Dl Gta San Andreas from xbox live MP, and like a lot of people get the error message to say it wont play and Dl again. Can anyone confirm two things for me:

Is it true that you cannot DL games to the 4GB built in storage and if you have a non MS HDD the game will not play.

Is it a case that no games DL from Xbox live will play on a non Ms Hdd or just old games.
IF so where is the cheapest place to buy an original MS HDD

Thanks

If you have a 4GB console, xbox originals will simply not work, even if you get an official HDD.

All other standard Xbox Live Arcade titles should be fine though.

Just call support about San Andreas.

xbox originals will work on a 4g console but you need a hdd on your console to download the compatibility files from live.

non authentic hdds can be hit and miss with xbox originals as some of the sellers when formatting the hdd's to work with the xbox dont do it properly and leave out the partition needed for the xbox original compatibility.
You can add this partition in yourself if you need to.
