    I just love Microsoft's "informative" troubleshooting steps:
    Many things can cause this error message. The specific cause depends on what you are trying to do in the Xbox Dashboard.

    Er yeah, "There was a problem performing that action" is a very helpful error message to start with :D.

    Not sure what caused the problem OP, I've been installing and uninstalling things since the NXE update came out and haven't had this problem yet...
