hey everyone, i'm having major problems loading up xbmc and not i need some help. everything was running fine and in installed the 666 build and at first it worked great. i noticed that after a while it failed to work and gave me a fatal error that it was unable to load strings.xml.

a fresh installed fixed the problem but after a power off and a power on it always gave me the error again.

now i installed the build from 6/11 and i have yet to be able to get into xbmc.

i've cleared everything from all folders and the app is being launched from evox to rule out the shortcut problems.

the only thing wrong with my xbox is the dvd rom drive is failing but i can't imagine why that is causing the problem.

here is my log... any help would be greatly appreciated as i'm out of options.

khaneric,

i remember having this problem at one point within the last few weeks. i need some clarification on your end if you don't mind.

first: is your network cable still plugged in?

sec: was there any editing to xml file?

thanks,

mbay
