Hey lads! I recently got onto Live. Its really good so far but I was curious to try a few games on live on my old xbox but something I'd like to do is use my X360 Live account on the original xbox but I can't find an option to sign in, only create a new account so would anyone know how I could do that? Thanks.

As far as I know you have to transfer your account back to your old Xbox. You can not use the same account on both machines at the one time. The same happened to me when I first transferred my account to my 360 4 years ago. Ended up being too much hassle to be transfering accounts around so I didn't bother.

Why not use the old Xbox games with your 360?
Majority are backwards compatible and it's far less hassle.
