    I've had a prepaid 12-mo card for a couple of years now, and when I tried to register it with my 360, it says 'invalid code.' Can't find a number to call and bitch about it, anyone know of one?

    Maybe it's only good for the old Xbox?

    Xbox LIVE members for the original Xbox® can migrate their current membership to Xbox 360 when they connect to Xbox LIVE.

    Maybe the newer Xbox is throwing that old card off...

    Thanks... I had thought about registering my original xbox with the card, but it's such a PITA to unplug and re-connect with all the shit I've got hooked up, but I think I'll try it and if it doesn't work, call one of those numbers and raise holy hell.

    ...and, I still haven't tried it. The original xbox is kind of wedged in a tight spot, and I'll have to do some rearranging to get the networking cable to reach...

    Maybe the retailer didn't activate it when you bought it?

    I won it through a radio station when I got my free copy of Mechassault 2 (when it came out)...

    Technically, I didn't pay for it, therefore, I won't have a receipt when it comes time to verify...
