New Xbox owners. Have you registered?

And if so, have you hada problem? I try to register my Xbox and I get an invalid Console ID #. Xbox CS has no idea why this is happening, and this sucks balls. Without a registered xbox, I can't play Xbox live. Weak. I have to call them again. Anyone else have an issue with this?

Update:

Apparently, they said the newest batch of Xbox's shipped are not properly entered in the database making the console ID's not appear to be correct when registering. What a pain in the ass. Call back next week they tells me.

I didn't register mine until I called in my bad NFL FEVER demo CD. That was about a week and a half ago, but I've been LIVE since the first wave. Why did you have to register your xbox before you connect to live??

You had a bad NFL Fever CD? What was the problem with it? Mine's bad, too, I need to call them -- curious if it's the same issue or not.

I haven't registered my XBox, and Live's working fine (in MotoGP and Whacked anyway (two games I despise)).

I read somewhere that you needed a registered xbox before connecting to Live. I don't have live yet though...just issues with registering my xbox.

If they made you register your xbox before connecting to live... well, that would make me mad.

Anyone here remember/know about MS frontpage licence agreement? It says that if you use their software it is illegal to create any website that says anything bad about MS. What is this country coming to?

Sorry, I'm way OT.

I couldn't play against some teams, so I called them up (18004MYXBOX) Told them what my problem was, and they said it might be my Xbox and it would cost $99 to have. I laughed, and then told him that I have six other games that play fine. It's not the xbox. He said that they'd send me out a replacement. When he went to verify my information he stated that I had not registered and he could not send out the cd with me registering.

I had to register just the other day when I called about gettting DD 5.1 on my system. I've had it for almost a year and I guess I had forgot to do this.
