First off is 150k connection good enough for Xbox live? I want to switch up to 600k but i only signed on to NTL a couple of weeks ago and it was the ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£9.99 special offer for the first 3 months. They advised me to make the most of the ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£9.99 offer and the upgrade after the 3 months is up.

Also, I have a chipped Xbox with a larger hard drive. Now, ignoring anyones moral stance on that, can I get connected to Live? I know I will need to fit a switch to disable my chip. Plus I believe I will need to "lock" my hard drive. How is that done? Before anyone says anything. I have LOTS of old mame games stored on there. Plus my Thopmson drive is awful for DDE's so I run most games off the hard drive.

Lots of questions there, I hope someone can help. Any answers are as alwyas, greatly appreciated.
