    ok, finally got this worked out,

    i needed to update my 360 so (because it wasn't connected to the 'net) i downloaded the updates from here

    360 updates

    and burnt them to cd, popped the cd in the 360 and its now updated,
    i thought this was all you had to do ... nope, early xbox games still would not play,

    i had to connect my 360 to the 'net and use my msn addy to create an xbox account,
    popped an old game in the tray (crash nitro cars, the little alien and me have hours of fun with this:-D:-D)
    it did an auto-download of the patch and off we played,

    as i was looking around on how to do this, i came across this wiki article - and thought i would pass it on,
    its a list of all the compatible older games that can be played on the 360 by installing the patch

    list of compatible games

    i'm happy now, this issue is solved and i'm off for a play
